NexGen Wars is a tracking site that monitors the sales of all 3 next generation consoles.
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
Real time sales counting is impossible.
They just took the average selling for the 360 based on sales from the past months.
Nothing like the future. Gears of War is out/will come out, Christmas is coming. Many people shopping for presents and the PS3 won't be on the selves. Now that is a problem.
That 10 million mark will be reached with easy. Millions of cumstomers that shop for a next gen console and PS3 has only 400.000 to sell, only in USA. The rest of the world can grab a 360 instantly
Its javascript, if anyone else wants a counter ill make it while drunk.
well if the 360 is at almost 7 million at mid November, 3 million more espescially during christmas season might almost be achievable
This will be Microsoft's generation to wear the crown. Nintendo is coming to the party technically outgunned just like they did with Gamecube and they have a freaky new controller to boot. PS3 packs in too much junk that most people will never have a use for and a pricetag that is way too high and have also moved towards a wacky controller like Nintendo, but at least theirs looks and feels familiar. MS also has the advantage of having been on the market for a year which gives them a chance to work out bugs and to lower their production costs, so they can make a price cut before either Nintendo or Sony can. Game developers have also had a year to learn how to squeeze more performance or better looking graphics out of the 360, while they are still at the beginning of the learning curve for the other two.
