360 dominates next-gen, PS2 dominates last-gen. Lower numbers than expected for both the PS3 and Wii, surprised they were only 114K apart.

 

[jj984jj]

whats LTD mean?

Life to Date or Total.

 

[Striek]

Amazing PSP numbers though.

Nope. Way down over last year. All of those numbers except perhaps 360 and PS3 are pretty shit.

 

[yoopoo]

Me in the predictions thread...

Wow I can't believe people think Nintendo shipped 900k - 800k -700k or even 600k Wiis in December.

Bunch of nuts!

hohohohohoh

 

[GhaleonEB]

Nintendo DS 1.6 mm 9.2 mm
PS2 1.4 mm 37.1 mm
GBA 850.7 K 35.1 mm
Xbox 360 1.1 mm 4.5 mm
Wii 604.2 K 1.1 mm
PSP 953.2 K 6.7 mm
PS3 490.7 K 687.3 K

Wii: half expectations. Wow. No wonder they're so hard to find.

PS3: right on target with expectations. Nov-Dec total are just above the 360 launch. Come from behind! :lol

360: About the mid-point of GAF projections. Odysseus lives. Above the best month the Xbox ever had. Not as good as it should have done.

 

[dili]

Portable Ops numbers?

 

[STG!]

Good month for the handhelds.

Wii BOMBA!

I dunno about "bomba" but predicted sales figures were way overblown. Certainly not close to 1.3 million and no where near the industry domination some had us believe was in the cards. In fact, the Wii numbers are not drastically better than the PS3 figures. The 360 handily won December/Christmas it seems. This "month" actually had 5 weeks in it.

 

[Snaku]

 

[deadhorse32]

Aren't these the same numbers bunkum said were wrong.

yeah. Those are the one posted on all the forums around for the last few hours

 

[D O W N]

Wait... so does this mean the PSP is relevant again?

(or is she just going down swingin'?)

 

[Grampa Simpson]

Wii was much more supply constrained that I thought.

 

[xaosslug]

HW Sales (month and LTD)
Nintendo DS 1.6 mm 9.2 mm
PS2 1.4 mm 37.1 mm
GBA 850.7 K 35.1 mm
Xbox 360 1.1 mm 4.5 mm
Wii 604.2 K 1.1 mm
PSP 953.2 K 6.7 mm
PS3 490.7 K 687.3 K

wow

 

[Christopher]

dissapointing Wii numbers total.

Holy shit I never expected the X360 to do so well...nice.

 

[Branduil]

Obviously the DS and Wii were more supply-limited than a lot of people assumed.

PS2 is amazing, PSP hardware did well too.

Zelda sold with over a 90% attach rate. That's freakin' amazing. And the GC version did quite well too.

 

[HomShaBom]

 

[KyanMehwulfe]

Wow at nearly 1 million PSP. Big PS2 numbers too yet.

I'm surprised that the Wii sales weren't much larger.

Also, I thought FF XII may of still made the list through Christmas sales. I guess most everyone that wanted it really did get it early.

 

[Jive Turkey]

pachter am owned total



leprechauns, dude



i'll see you guys later

:lol Sorry man! Have a good one!

Nice 360 and PSP sales.

Eh? Wii didn`t outsell 360?

 

[Odysseus]

Wait... so does this mean the PSP is relevant again?

psp was never irrelevant

just less relevant lately than ds

what this actually means is december rocks for gaming, psp included

 

[Busaiku]

Wii bomba total.

 

[nicks are so impersonal]

Xbox 360 owns its competition. It's starting to look like a winner in the west.

 

[Haunted]

DS and PS2 will dominate the charts into 2008.

 

[meppi]

 

[soul creator]

:lol

Warlox=Banned for 3 months.



Nice 360 and PSP sales.

er, isn't he saying that the Wii won't outsell the 360...which is what happened?

Although in fairness, sonycowboy's post title, and the fact that the Wii "1.1 million" column was so close to the 360's "1.1 million" made me think for a second they sold the same amount in December. Had to look closer to see what happened

 

[Mojovonio]

so the 360 only sold 4.5 million in the US total?

 

[TheGreatDave]

Are we thinking Nintendo are intentionally trying to drive up demand with low supply, or are they really releasing fewer units because they're putting new wrist straps on every ****ing Wiimote?

 

[MindCollizion]

:lol

Warlox=Banned for 3 months.

But Wii didn't outsell 360?

 

[Y2Kev]

PSP...did anyone expect this? Wow.

PS3 at 500k...700k for America...about what 360 had last year. Not bad. January will see if the stock in the channel is moving or not. Overall not terrible, I guess. Better than the PS2's first two months in America?

DS...great.

PS2...it just keeps going.

360 numbers are really nice. Congrats to Microsoft.

GBA...great numbers.

Wii...supply constrained.

more importantly THREE BALL LOSES HIS BAN BET, ODYSSEUS SURVIVES!

 

[My Arms Your Hearse]

STOP BUYING GBA YOU RETARDED MONKEYS!!!!!

Pretty bland all around in the end. Wii only 100k more than PS3. D00MED.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Dude, Wii barely made half.

Nice 360 and PSP sales.

why would he be banned???

 

[hyp]

great numbers by the PSP. Dark Alex must be proud of his work! what happened to wii total domination?

 

[DenogginizerOS]

Why are the X360 numbers restricted to two significant figures? Did it sell 1.1 million or 1.100 million? Is it rounded up or down?

 

[Busty]

PS2 is a beast machine.

1.4 m? I'm blown away.

The PSP that they list on the hardware sales.... that's the Sony PSP.... right...?

Who'd have thunk it?

 

[Dante]

The only thing that shocked me was PSP not bad at all for a suppsedly "dead" system

 

[methane47]

GOOD GOD!! WHAT HAPPENED TO THE WII SALES???!!!!!

3rd party?

Top 10 Accessories? A nice surprise. Did we ever get these before, even through leaks?

I was pretty close with my 360, PS3, PSP and PS2 predictions.. but got owned by Wii and DS. Totally overestimated things there. What happened to those Wii shipments, Nintendo? No wonder Wiis were completely unobtainable.

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

The GBA is too a monster! Why is the PS3 selling bad, I don't get it...didn't Sony say they've shipped 1m? The demand is there..it's Playstation for goodness sake.

 

[Mithos Yggdrasill]

Oh man...but are you sure ? REALLY SURE ?? Patcher said that Wii has sold around 1.3 millions. Is it possible that he has done a SO BIG mistake ???

 

[Red Blaster]

With those PS2 numbers, Sony probably doesn't care what the PS3 pulls in for the first 6 months.

Shouldn't combined Zelda sales be at number 3 here, or am I missing something?

 

[R-User!]

Holy Holy Shit Shit!

 

[Patrickula]

I said "Wow!"

 

[Haunted]

Are we thinking Nintendo are intentionally trying to drive up demand with low supply, or are they really releasing fewer units because they're putting new wrist straps on every ****ing Wiimote?

We are thinking that Nintendo treats the European and Japanese markets more equally that its competitors do

Spoiler

and creates artificial shortages in the US.

 

[Piepz]

Just wanted to post in this legendary thread!

 

[strikeselect]

360 owned December.

Gears of War top selling title, even outselling ZELDA! Ntards am cry! :lol :lol :lol


A very decisive holiday victory for Microsoft

Xbox 360 owns its competition. It's starting to look like a winner in the west.

The PS3 and Wii are supply constrained. Wait for January.
