Interesting. If this is true, 360 and wii sales increased across all EMEAA territories, and PS3 sale decrease. This is dispite good sales of GT5. Kinect is working wonders for M$ and Nintendo was offered the most new software releases along with attractive discounts. Sony should try some discounts abot now, if they want to ensure strong holiday numbers and keep that EMEAA lead.

That is, if these numbers are to be believed.

Clarence5636d ago

The PS3 came out a year and half later but has now taken the lead over the 360 in Europe I would think its M$ that should cut the price of the 360. Kincet working wonders, I think not. Kincet coming out in Europe did not affect the sales of the PS3 or the Wii. The numbers for the PS3 are probably higher.

Government Cheese5636d ago

Nuh uh, the numbers for the 360 are probably higher.

Bereaver5636d ago

Sigh..... Did you guys even look at the source? VGChartz.

Do you really think PS3 will be down when GT5 releases?

NecrumSlavery5635d ago

The only 360 title in the top 10 is a motion game. That is sad.

Heavy_Rain5636d ago (Edited 5636d ago )

Yeah How can anyone resist the GOTY contender Kinect Sports. Truly only dedicated gamers like BigPappy understand how amazing kinect Sports is. Very happy for all x360 owners. May they get more amazing kinect games like Kinectimals and Kinect Sports. X360 has the most interesting games library this holiday season and in 2011 is going to sweep the show. And if rumours are true and if Kinect Fitness Complete is released then its game over for Sony. I envy you Bigpappy and other x360 gamers. You guys are truly blessed with the best console in the market

At least they have the hardware order right. Everyone with a brain knows Nintendo and Sony run a worldwide operation and sell many more units than Microsoft weekly. :)

Bigpappy5636d ago

EMEAA is not the world. It does not include the largest market in the world or Japan. When you get NPD tomorrow and media creed numbers, you can do the approximate math.

TheBlackSmoke5636d ago

The approximate math will be the same like it is every month.

1.NPD will come out and show 360 is ahead by 100k

2.360 Fanboys will proclaim that the PS3 is doomed.

3.Japan numbers nullify the 100k

4.Europe numbers put PS3 over the top and shrink the gap for another month.

Sigh the whole NPD bragging event that takes place on here is getting old. The scenario never changes.

jneul5635d ago

yeah what you lot don't realise is npd != the world either

eagle215636d ago

I understand this is the EMEAA chart...lol. :)

ssj5636d ago

Looks like Kinect'll hit 3 million worldwide this week.

N4WAH5635d ago (Edited 5635d ago )

ssj I love your submission history.
It's either vgchartz or positive Kinect and MS articles and usually from small blog sites.

Yeah somehow I think your opinions should be taken with a grain of salt. Why do I get this feeling you are a part of vgchartz? If I am correct, guess the people that claim VGC is run by an MS fans is accurate.

etownone5636d ago

GT5 had little if no effect on consoles sales ...

eagle215635d ago

It had a nasty effect on 360 sales I see on that there chart...lol.

Newtype5636d ago

Why are people using them again?

Knushwood Butt5635d ago

The person that posted the article is one of the team from that site.

If you don't like them pushing their BS here, stop them from posting it..

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.

solideagle15d 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

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.

jznrpg21d 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.

Smellsforfree21d 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.

Loktai21d 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.
