Vilken tråkig listaSweden 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.
Mcvuk said:Nearly three quarters of UK games stores believe that PlayStation 4 will be the dominant platform in 2016.
70 per cent of store managers voted for Sony's console as the hardware to rule the next tweleve months, citing its strong forthcoming line-up.
In second place was Xbox One, which was put forward by 27 per cent of stores.

About the survey
Liking whoever voted NX. BOLD BET.
I wonder if DK ever got over 100k in Germany....?
I mean there has to have been a chance right?
I'm 100% sure it will break 100k, if not 200k.
Don't they only account it to to a year after release for it to hit 100k though?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.

Makes sense.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.

That's... not good.
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.

http://www.chart-track.co.uk/?i=2301&s=1111Consequently, 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 weeks Christmas No1 is looking like a 3 horse race. Activisions Call of Duty: Black Ops III climbs one place to No1 (-37%) last year Activision held off EAs FIFA 15 as Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare was the 2014 Xmas No1. At No2 this week is EAs 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 No1s with 8 so far. Records for traditional entertainment software Xmas No1s actually date back 32 years to 1984 and although the charts back then were very different it was in fact Activisions 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 weeks 2 big new releases drop places, with Square Enixs Just Cause 3 down 2 to No6 (-43%) and Ubisofts Tom Clancy Rainbow 6: Siege down 3 places to No9 (-58%). The lone new entry this week is EAs The Sims 4: Get Together debuting at No38.
This is the week 50 chart, but thanks to the Gregorian calendar this year is also a 53 week year (last occurred in 2009).
