NPD US Sales - September 2011

[QUOTE="loosingENDS"]

[QUOTE="themyth01"] Could it be the dreaded Kinect. I don't know what it is, but whatever MS is doing is working, because the 360 has been beating PS3 and Wii for over a year now, the thing doesn't stop selling and it's on its 6th year. The Wii has definitely hit the turning point. Sony continues to do well enough, slow but steady.

360 keeps selling better and better, i wonder what their sales would be after a price drop to 100$ for the base model and 150$ with Kinect

I think they can afford a 100$ drop, so the 300$ Kinect model would go to 200$

Solid sales figures for both 360 & PS3..

I mean, I know this is a US thread and all... but does anyone else find it amusing how certain people around here act like Japan's sales aren't important, because teh US is teh most biggest market! And yet PS3 made up for 360's lead in US for the month in basically 1 week in Japan. I guess PS3's going to outsell 360 again in the worldwide quarterly numbers.

By that analogy the Wii has won worldwide sales long ago so still no need to bring up Japan in NPD .

Looks like the price drop has helped a bit but not enough for the PS3

^ apparently the US doesn't matter in an NPD thread, though.

Good sales for 360.

I expected Gears 3 to sell more though.

Gran Turismo 5 sold like hot cakes in its first month.

Blaze-Agent

Yes it is. (However, the game will not have legs, at all, this is just my prediction).

Resistance 3 sold 180,000 units. Poor numbers imo.

Blame Sony for Resistance 3 Numbers. Marketing for that game was piss poor. What a shame. Terrible Terrible Showing.

[QUOTE="loosingENDS"]

[QUOTE="bonesawisready5"] You mean sell the Xbox and Kinect for $150. Yea, never happening. I'd guess at best, $149 4GB, $249 320GB eventuallyInnovazero2000

I think they can afford a 100$ drop, so the 300$ Kinect model would go to 200$

But hardware costs go down, 360 has 6 years old hardware and i think they would be profitable even at 100$ price

Bit Complete sold miserably...then again i was interested in the game and i didn't see it in any retail.

Good sales for 360.

I expected Gears 3 to sell more though.

Gran Turismo 5 sold like hot cakes in its first month.

obviously 360 is number 1, its a fact that xbox 360 offers the best gamesablafasaolin

Well, I guess no official from Nintendo, but who honestly waits for official detailed numbers from Nintendo? Many online sales trackers have Star Fox's sales adding up between EU, JP and NA to around 250k, possibly a little bit more now. That isn't bad by any means, thats a lot of profit for a remake. I've had a chance to meet a lot of people from Q-Games and they're good people. I hope they get the chance to reboot Star Fox again, or perhaps Smart Bomb.bonesawisready5

Not to mention that barely anyone has a 3DS yet. You can't expect software numbers to approach the millions when there are probably one a few million people who own the necessary hardware.

The PS3 has sold around 190,000 units in Japan.XenogearsMaster

[QUOTE="nintendoboy16"][QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"] Console budgets are about 10x-20x more expensive than handhelds game budgets. Sony will probably axe the franchise for consoles and keep it for vita only.bonesawisready5

There are no worldwide sell-through trackers.

Damn the 360 hardware and software continues to dominate.

Added in some new software numbers for Madden, Dead Island, and FIFA.

2.3 Million units of Madden... bleh.
