Sweden Combined charts for week 48, still no charts for individual SKU's. And the combined ones are a week late as it is, so not really expecting the individual SKU's to show up any time soon for week 49.
Vilken tråkig lista :(
What a boring chart

23 (__) [PS4] THE ORDER 1886
30 (__) [PS4] GOD OF WAR III REMASTERED

Bought both games for 9,99€ each during an Amazon sale. As well as Tearaway Unfolded for the same price. But Tearaway didn't reach the top 100 or am I blind?

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
Liking whoever voted NX. BOLD BET.

I'm even suprised someone voted it. While we have rumours and patents, officially, we know next to nothing about it, just that it exists and that it's a 2016 announcement. Why anyone would vote it right now :lol
 
Donkey Kong? Tropical Freeze?
Nope. I posted the full list of WiiU titles that got an award (post #139).



I dunno... I don't think it's got the same potential as the titles that did cross 100k. We'll see I guess.
Don't they only account it to to a year after release for it to hit 100k though?

Yes, but it dropped from the top 50 after about 3 months and didn't really show back up in any significant way. Compared to other titles like Smash, I'd say it's really unlikely it ever got near 100k.

Makes sense.
Does Yoshi have a chance since it's been in the charts since June?

That's... not good.

Wouldn't be shocked if most of the drop is Nintendo. 2007 was still seeing sellouts of Wii hardware bundle, 2008 saw Mario Kart Wii and Wii Fit dominate the charts all year and there might have been hardware shortages again according to a Tech Radar article.

Combine that with a healthier DS and PSP combine with their successors and its easy to see the drop. Shame we can't see the format splits, Sony will likely be doing better then they were at this point and I bet MS would be comparable, if a little better in that 2007/08 period.

Cheers Bruno!

So if we take the 20% digital that gets thrown about, MS are about in the same place they were. We're comparing Halo 5's year to Gears of War's 2 year too so that should be an alright comparison point.

Sony are obviously the happiest with that increase and the handheld market is non existent here now bar Pokemon. But with Nintendo losing the casual people they brought in as a lot of people expected when the Wii U happened, plus the digital slice of the pie and we're only at half the sales than we were at the same period isn't horrible. It's just Nintendo and unfortunately retailers suffering from not having that Wii/DS money.

Retailers seem to push the whole pre-owned angle a lot harder now than back then and those sales won't be included at all (which completely removes retailers like CEX).

Handheld seems to be mobile/tablet now. PC is pretty much all digital.

I guess it depends what the comparison is intended to show about the market. There are quite a lot of differences between then and now that raw numbers can't explain alone.

Nah, pre-owned was always pushed hard due to the margins. I worked in GAME during the PS2/XBox/GC days and everytime someone bought something not totally out that day that we knew we had stock of, we guided them towards the £5 cheaper copy that was second hand.

But I think it's comparable in terms of Sony and MS's home console offerings and they both seem alright for now. Obviously, according to 1-3% of video game store managers, the NX is going to rule 2016, so we'll see how that shakes things up

In November 2008, Mario Kart Wii (241,111*) nearly sold as much units as all Nintendo software in November 2015 (259,524).

*Upweighted to 100% for a proper comparison.

Consequently, the last published chart before Christmas will be next week and that is the definition for the Christmas Chart (week 51, ending Saturday 19th December). Jockeying for position and next week’s Christmas No1 is looking like a 3 horse race. Activision’s ‘Call of Duty: Black Ops III’ climbs one place to No1 (-37%) – last year Activision held off EA’s ‘FIFA 15’ as ‘Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare’ was the 2014 Xmas No1. At No2 this week is EA’s ‘Star Wars Battlefront’, up from No3 (-22%) – this title could benefit from Star Wars 7 movie mania, released in just a few days. EA also have ‘FIFA 16’ which drops 2 places to No3 this week (-49%) but ‘FIFA’ games currently hold the record in terms of Xmas No1’s with 8 so far. Records for traditional entertainment software Xmas No1’s actually date back 32 years to 1984 and although the charts back then were very different it was in fact Activision’s ‘Ghostbusters’ on Spectrum and Commodore machines that claimed the first ever Xmas No1 (week 51, 1984). Bethesda drop one place to No4 with ‘Fallout 4’ (-21%) and Telltale Games’ ‘Minecraft: Story Mode’ climbs 2 places to No5 (-3%). Last week’s 2 big new releases drop places, with Square Enix’s ‘Just Cause 3’ down 2 to No6 (-43%) and Ubisoft’s ‘Tom Clancy Rainbow 6: Siege’ down 3 places to No9 (-58%). The lone new entry this week is EA’s ‘The Sims 4: Get Together’ debuting at No38.
