November launch definitely boosts sales. A lot of people won't be buying Reach until closer to Xmas, or are waiting to get it as an Xmas gift.

O.D.S.T. and Reach while fun games made me realize I prefer playing Halo single player as the Master Chief.

Hmm, yeah I prefer to play as the MC. Reach campaign's is much better than H3's but I would rather control the MC and feel invincible.

Interesting tidbit with the New Super Mario Bros Wii inclusion.



Happy sleuthing guys! I guess I'll return to this thread in a couple days and see what people have found out from the various articles. :/

I have a feeling the NPD threads will have longer shelf lives as nuggets like this slowly come out over the course of the month.

That's probably what NPD wants. Less data, more NPD references.

I was so looking forward to the fanboy war between Kinect and Move.

NPD stole my Christmas. :(

You would never get that. Even if NPD decidied to reveal the numbers for accessories, how would you actually compare them?

Although I guess you could compare software sales, but we'll probably get those anyway.

Yes, so what were usual monthly numbers for NSMW in past few months?
Answer: We don't know!

NSMBWii was 8, so we didn't get numbers. But Galaxy 2 did 193k and number 5 Harry Potter did 140k.

Figured we'd have to compare software sales for Move but I thought Kinect would be viewed as its own seperate platform.

this is like those threads on gamefaqs that feature such topics as " goku vs. cloud, who would win in a fight", with people using the strangest arguments and methods at attaching values to arbitrary things

If NPD wants to fuck us, how about we return to incorrect lolchartz numbers. Soon enough all websites will start using these numbers as standard instead of NPD's. That will teach them.

I don't think so. Microsoft might treat it as a whole new platform, but it's not a standalone product.

So I guess we know were the pressure to stop public HW numbers came from. Not that NPD would need much "pressure" to decrease numbers from the "trough feeders".

That's a pretty steep YoY decline for the Wii. It sold 462,800 units last September and 254,000 this year.

I think it's safe to assume Sony did worse if they're refusing to release any numbers.

Wow at 360 almost doubling up the Wii. I would think if the PS3 also beat the Wii Sony would be shouting that from a roof top. Does anyone knoww how accurate the Chartzz numbers usually are?

For those wondering, NPD said the PS3 is up on the weekly average from last month.

Last month, 4 weeks, 226k total for PS3 means 56.5k weekly average.

This month, 5 weeks at 56.5k means 282.5k.

Welcome to the new era of NPD of hazy mathematics and speculation.

Now that we have DS and Wii numbers, at least we know Microsoft wasn't excluding handhelds when they said they were the top selling console.
