Forums - Sony - Sony to spend big on Uncharted advertising

Is there a bigger list of NPD games sold floating around somewhere? I keep seeing that Uncharted did 117K in sales for NPD November, but every link for NPD I can see only has the top 10 games sold and Uncharted isn't on it.

 You can't.. NPD charges thousands of dollars for their data and threatens to sue anyone who posts more than the top ten..

The numbers are often leaked though.

Slimebeat,

Can I hold you to your Ratchet and Uncharted predictions. Both for US only.

Yes of course.

(Ratchet & Clank won't pass 400,000 within it's first year. Uncharted 300,000 copies maximum.)


Ratchet will not reach 400k in US, and Uncharted will not reach 300k in US. Gotcha. Saving.


Looking pretty good for me.

After 5 weeks R&C is nearly out of the top 50 and at only 200K sold.

Uncharted's sales disappointed many Sony-fans, especially when the game got great reviews - just 127K copies sold after 2 weeks.

The 127K was after basically a week, the earlier numbers were from the small amount released early.

So, 130K after just over a week, not bad at all before the christmas boom. Youre silly if you dont think it'll hit 300,000 at all. 

 

 NPD numbers just in.
Both games overtracked by vgchartz.
Uncharted sold only 117,000 in Nov in the US according to NPD (186,000* on vgchartz).
Ratcher & Clark sold 66,000 (130,000* on vgchartz in Nov).
(*includes Canada sales, approx 10%)

 


Are we using NPD or VGC? Also what if one comes true but the other does not?

Uncharted is a great game, it deserves the advertisements. Also i actually like the sony ps3 commercials, they are a lot better than those stupid canadian tire commercials, anyone from canada would agree with me on the CT commercials!
