If I was Sony PR my press release would be 5 words long:
Just wait till June assholes.
A million seller
on PS3: almost like
waiting for Godot
What in the fuck does that mean?
EDIT: Just checked wikipedia. So you're saying there are no million sellers on PS3? Id be willing to be my cock that there are at least 8.

Actually that was in response to Japanese sales. Still I plan on dropping that in every times someone says wait for... in relation to the PS3. Maybe I should think of a good gif to superimpose it on. Hmmmm.

What...what happens in June?
MGS4 I believe.
And on another note, we've had absolute assloads of 360's since around mid-February so I don't buy the "shortage" excuse.
They dropped their largest OEM manufacturer in November and didn't pick up another until February. There were shortages whether you buy the excuse or not.

It's possible their own inventory count isn't how they want it to be, but having seen a bountiful amount in my store and noting that most of our other stores in the area are in the same situation makes it seem as if the shortages must be localized in nature, because our experience the past couple of months hasn't reflected the story they've presented.
With GTA4 less than two weeks away what does everyone think the sales numbers will be? Obviously low on the charts since its released 3 days before the month ends but overall do u think in April/May it will see the kind of numbers Brawl did just on the 360?
I am kind of curious how the splits will work cross console between the 360 and PS3, what are your guys' opinions?
The success of Nintendo’s DS knows no bounds in Japan, with the console’s software sales hitting a stonking 100 million units in the territory since launch.
As IGN points out, Nintendo software is now as popular in Japan as ‘The Sims is in the entire world’. The top ten best-selling title are all pure first-party releases, with the exception of two Pokemon titles.
The list is lead by New Super Mario Bros., which has shifted in excess of five million boxes in the territory.
The figures, from Japan stats body Media Create, also reveal that Brain Age 2 (More Brain Training) has sold over four million units, as has Animal Crossing.
The full top ten reads:
1) New Super Mario Bros. (5,174,163 units)
2) Brain Age 2 (4,835,159)
3) Animal Crossing DS (4,693,662)
4) Brain Age (3,771,440)
5) Mario Kart DS (3,042,753)
6) Pokemon Diamond (3,005,505)
7) Pokemon Pearl (2,490,564)
8) English Training DS (2,216,322)
9) Mario Party DS (1,706,506)
10) Big Brain Academy (1,654,285)

Normally it takes just a few days for a big game to get a good part of its sales done. I don't see how it wouldn't chart at #1.

...big pic...
What will happen when the streams cross?
One, some, or all of the following:
Nothing much as Nintendo keeps chugging along.
An eruption of posts from well meaning Nintendo fans about how much better their system is.
Or all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light. In other words: Total protonic reversal.

So much fanwankery about the Wii being a poor, downtrodden underdog that's just a fad and full of crap shovelware that nobody buys games for.
Because that's still new and hasn't been flogged to death yet.
I'm sure you've seen the insane Wii figures. 721,000 sold in March in the US. What's Microsoft's take on that?
We think Nintendo's success, to be honest, is great for us. They're doing great things to help broaden the audience in the industry. We're playing a role as well. And Xbox is a great complement to that experience. It's interesting, because we're not really targeting the same consumer with the same kind of experience, but in many ways we're finding that as we grow and broaden...a lot of that audience is going to be graduating up from the Wii experience. We think we're a great complement to that. What Nintendo's doing is great for the industry, but it's great for us as well.

The Wii still outsells the PS3 and Sony fanboys openly weep.
They dropped their largest OEM manufacturer in November and didn't pick up another until February. There were shortages whether you buy the excuse or not.
In June? We'll likely
see a "Halo-like" effect
sales up, then back down

Horror games other than Resident Evil almost never sell well, sadly.

a larger effect.
Indeed it will have
a larger effect; but when

I didn't know that!
That is what I get for not,
paying attention.
[PS3 Rainbow Six Vegas 2] = 154.7K
Compared to:
WII GUITAR HERO III: LEGENDS OF ROCK ACTIVISION Oct-07 264.1K
360 *TOM CLANCY'S RAINBOW SIX: VEGAS 2 UBISOFT Mar-08 752.3K
Wow.
Bah.
Not necessarily surprised (it could do with a media furore to get some publicity) but sad, because it was bloody awesome.
Also, since when was Samuel Beckett a French playwright?
The play was written in French.

Oh yeah? Just wait for MKWii, and if that doesn't do it, Just Wait For WiiFit. :winky:
Surely their production limits will force Nintendo to hit the ceiling again with launching these 3 huge games back to back in all 3 major regions
