All system sales seem to be moving up

ElementX6542d ago

WTF are you smoking? 3 of them have negative numbers. Look at the pitiful MGS4 numbers. Oh well, last one didn't sell more than 3.7 million anyway.

Obama6542d ago

First, it's vg chart.
Second, mgs4 has already sold 3 million.
Finally, the 360 is still at LAST place. It's vg chart but it always undertracks ps3 sales.

The Lazy One6542d ago

obviously. VG is the only one that attempts to track weekly; if they weren't wrong 30+% of the time, that would be awesome.

I do think a lot of people were giving MGS4 a lot of extra credit towards console sales than it's actually going to get, but I still think it did a bit better than that.

Obama6542d ago

Sold to retailers, so Konami is already making profit off those 3 million copies.

Superfragilistic6542d ago

@Obama

Sure Konami's making money off 3million. But that's not consumer sales which is the topic of this article and was clearly what you were referring to above. :)

It's like me saying that MS has sold 25million 360's because of shipped numbers to retail, but the reality is of course much different.

plenty a tool6542d ago

just making wild statements i see. it must hurt to see sony taking a spanking off of nintendo. but what must be worse, is seeing sony not even manage a pitiful 30k more than microsoft...and that coming of the back of the game which was supposedly gonna destroy the 360...lol just a shame there isn't a more accurate source. seeing as vgchartz pulls numbers from their arse.

now the fanboys will say killzone2 will be it's harbinger of doom, then god of war, then ff...catch my drift.

morganfell6542d ago (Edited 6542d ago )

Well tool you sound like the kid that always sits on the bench laughing at the 2nd baseman for missing a ground ball. At least he is in the game. Yes the Wii is beating the PS3. But since the 360 is in 3rd place it is getting beat by the console getting beat by the Wii. How's that working out for you?

And I don't base that beating on those numbers above either. VGChartz is just pure trash. They should lobotomize the people approving this crap. Wait, too late for that.

The Lazy One6542d ago

No... he's more like a spectator yelling at another spectator for saying the second baseman stopped the ball and will continue to stop balls, when everyone has seen the second baseman miss the ball this time and many times before.

CWATIDIDTHUR?

plenty a tool6542d ago (Edited 6542d ago )

beating and outselling (i hate that word..pure fanboy) doesn't mean anything to me. i play the games and enjoy it! i dont need to feel like "my console is winning". that's why i rip the fanboys that dwell on here.

sony by rites should be spanking everyone, instead they are hardly making a dent month in month out in 7mil they are behind microsoft, and have no chance of first. second place will be sonys in 09 or early 2010, but they wont beat microsoft by multiples!

there, that's got to make you feel a bit better?!

ok lazyone...i see the sony defense force are on patrol. it's amazing how many of you lot live in denial. kind of like religous nuts. should i say goodbye to another bubble?

morganfell6542d ago (Edited 6542d ago )

Too bad tool. This makes your claims of not being a fanboy so much worthless air:

http://www.n4g.com/up/40102...

All one has to do is go back and look at your post history and it is easy to see you kneeling before the Redmond throne.

You just can't stomach the fact that 3rd place is your ( and mr bill's) lot in life. Think I care people are buying the Wii? Hell I own one. Those people aren't gamers but rather casual entertainment seekers. I could care less. And yes I have a 360 gumball machine too. Had several of those ticking betty crocker easy bake oven time bombs.

Yeah my favorite machine won't finish in first...except among real gamers and it damn well won't be last. And BTW, since you were never taught this about life, last = last. By 1 or 100, last = last.

360 worshippers hate the SDF because they were not smart enough to invent the idea themselves. Besides, SDF sounds better than XDF. X anything sounds like 'former'. Xbox - formerly a functional box, X girlfriend now a whore. X rockstar now working the fry vat at Jack in the Box.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (PS3) 185,818 2,064,591
is wrong numbers, its clearly konami stated a week ago that they sold one million copy to customers during 1-2 weeks time and now after almost 3 weeks VG Charts states its not even a million yet!! this just shows how much they r off, and i am sure out of the 3 million shipped copy almost all of then gone by now (not completely), MGS4 sales didnt stop last week when they million copy in europe and more than a million in NA and Japan

EDIT

someone said ps3 is 7 million behind 360 LOLOLOLOL, its only 5 million now, and by end of the year it can out sell it if they drop the price

mistertwoturbo6542d ago

Ah ElementX, now I remember why I ignored you.

plenty a tool6542d ago

my post history proves nothing! i just rip the fanboys. but i'm sure if i linked yours...it would be pure fanboy fodder. see the ignore option?

morganfell6542d ago (Edited 6542d ago )

Yes I see the ignore option and I am using it on you right now. You rip fanboys? That would be self mutilation for you.

You are right there in the same league as the mart and pog.

Anyone that would call themselves plenty a tool obviously has feelings of inferiority driven by the existence of physical shortcomings. It is of little doubt that the failure to, shall we say, measure up has resulted in past ridicule. Fanboy tool, meet my ignore hammer.

Glad Tales of Symphonia is in the top ten ^^

toughNAME6542d ago

I'm glad to see the Xbox 360 shortage should be over in a few months. Looks like Halo 3 is STILL kickin ass!

mesh16542d ago

AHH OK seems like ps3 sales are decreasing and xbox sales are rising worldwide well tbh only thing keeping me from sellig my ps3 for a 360 is the blueray im a sony fan and like th eps3 but im finding my self not playing games anymore i may get a 360 very soon.

nomad1176542d ago

Wish we could see the real numbers instead of these cruddy estimates

Cyrus3656542d ago

it is posted under rumors.

PoSTedUP6542d ago

ohh damn, look at that, it is. my bad.

gogators6542d ago

over 1/2 millions consoles in a single week in the month of June? That can't be right even with Smash Brothers releasing in Europe.

power of Green 6542d ago (Edited 6542d ago )

Are you saying a super console AAA exclusive can't sell 500 thousnad in a week? lol.

By the way I think VG-Chartz is BS.

There are around 25 million owners.

mint royale6542d ago

i guess dont underestimate th power of the wii

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.

solideagle33d ago

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

Relientk7733d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

jznrpg39d ago

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.

Smellsforfree39d ago

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.

Loktai38d ago

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.
