woah, are Famitsu and Media Create Number usually like 20% different or something? that's quite the difference.

 

[Cruceh]

Does Lost Odyssey get released before any significant PS3 RPGs (are there even any in the pipeline aside from the multiplatform Lost Remnant and FF13 and friends?)

Folksoul is next week, which might be interesting. Who knows.
And wow, 360 had a 200% increase.

[schuelma]

Has anyone reported the shipment for Folk Soul next week?

 

[womfalcs3]

Folk Soul will increase sales this week for the PS3.

 

[Jokeropia]

RE4 just missed the top 30 this week in the same way it missed the top 10 last week. :lol

Not that bad, really.

 

[kisakiproject]

Dead Rising Platinum hits at 40, nice.

360 is only 100,000 behind xbox now. Should overtake it by the end of the year. I hope TB Bundles make 360 sell a bit better for a few weeks.

 

[Oblivion]

Seriously, this is getting downright scary. I mean that's the closest an MS console has ever had with its competitors in Japan. Imagine if PS3 didn't get its 'bump'.

Damn, so close baby.

 

[Relix]

IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAND!!

 

[LanceStern]

In other news, is there any reason why the PSP increased its sales by almost 10,000 units from last week with no notable releases? No other console has had this sort of notable increase

 

[Xeke]

Folk Soul will increase sales this week for the PS3.

It's a shame they chose to release it the same week as 2 new DS colors, Zelda and Itadaki.

 

[Evlar]

A bump of 700 units. WOW.

Delayed FFII bump?

 

[schuelma]

A bump of 700 units. WOW.

Yeah..I thought it would do better than that.

What kind of bump are we talking next week..Gundabump or Sigmabump?

 

[sechsterangriff]

It's a shame they chose to release it the same week as 2 new DS colors, Zelda and Itadaki.

Folk Soul sent to die?

 

[Cheesemeister]

Yeah..I thought it would do better than that.

What kind of bump are we talking next week..Gundabump or Sigmabump?

You're seeing the Sigmabump: 700 units. Trustybump is 5000 units.

 

[schuelma]

You're seeing the Sigmabump: 700 units.

Yeah that's what I meant- for next week is Folksouls going to be a non existent temporary bump (Sigmabump) or a noticable temporary bump (Gundabump).

 

[Xeke]

You're seeing the Sigmabump: 700 units. Trustybump is 5000 units.

I'd say thats more of a poke/nudge than a bump.

 

[Cheesemeister]

I'd say thats more of a nudge than a bump.

Nudge Gaiden Sigma?

 

[Evlar]

I'd say thats more of a poke than a bump.

Or a twitch.

 

[GhaleonEB]

You're seeing the Sigmabump: 700 units. Trustybump is 5000 units.

I said wow. I really thought the PS3 would get a nice bump of several thousand units, and the 360 would maybe double. 360 sales will drop through the floor again next week, but it does highlight just how poorly the PS3 is doing when the 360 is within 2,000 units. 0_o

 

[perfectchaos007]

Or a twitch.

Or a glitch

 

[Xeke]

Or a twitch.

Would it have been a -bump if it somehow sold fewer than last week?

 

[schuelma]

Would it have been a -bump if it somehow sold fewer than last week?

It would have been a subump.

 

[Cheesemeister]

I said wow. I really thought the PS3 would get a nice bump of several thousand units, and the 360 would maybe double.

In fact, 360 sales more than tripled.

"What's 52 million times zero?! And don't tell me it's zero!"

 

[Gaborn]

"What's 52 million times zero?! And don't tell me it's zero!"

Multiplication.

 

[bc226]

the sigmatwitch new name for selling less then 1000 units after hype.

 

[Jokeropia]

Wii is now officially tracking ahead of PS2 btw. 2,734,994 vs. 2,725,751 after 28 weeks each. (Wii numbers MC and PS2 Famitsu, but still.) Considering that the PS2 shortages caused by the NA launch only got worse at this point, it will continue to pull ahead during the upcoming months.

 

[Xeke]

Nudge Gaiden Sigma?

Nudge Pokeden Sigmatwitch

 

[Branduil]

Why the PSP bump?

 

[BorkBork]

Jesus Christ, that was F*CKING CLOSE!

 

[Dalthien]

A bump of 700 units. WOW.

It's a true NinjaBump.

Performed with such amazing stealth that you don't even notice it.

 

[methane47]

HOLY SH%T at XBOX360 numbers

Your days are numbered... Earth..

You can't possibly expect to live much longer..

 

[..pakbeka..]

Why the PSP bump?

CPS3 emulator?

 

[Liabe Brave]

The Wii is guaranteed to reach 3 million sold before the PS3 hits 1 million. If we assume--like an idiot--constant hardware sales, when the PS3 hits 2 million, how many Wiis will have sold?

10 million.

That would be in over 2 years.

 

[Cheesemeister]

Multiplication.

8:41. You fail.

 

[lupin23rd]

The disproportionate bump of TB is due to hardware collectors wanting to pick up EVERY iteration of EVERY console ever released.

Any of you see that guy in the TC4 thread with all the GunCons? Think along those lines, but instead a few thousand Japanese video gamers with boxes upon boxes of mint, in some cases in-the-box-never-opened consoles in his closet.

Hardcore.

PS3 - 9,481
360 - 7,583

I have no words left for how badly PS3 is doing. Insert anihawkgraph.gif

 

[LanceStern]

In fact, 360 sales more than tripled.

"What's 52 million times zero?! And don't tell me it's zero!"

"Our sales increased by over 300%"

"300% of one is only 3..."

 

[angelfly]

Wow @ PS3 numbers. So what's the next "Wait for X" game for PS3? A couple more games like Trusty Bell and I think 360 might actually have a chance in Japan but maybe I'm being overly optimistic.

 

[Gaborn]

8:41. You fail.

I KNEW it had to be a reference to SOMETHING, whoops, lol

 

[Hollywood_mIRC]

PS2 11,974
PS3 9,481

Wow, isn't this the PS2's worst numbers stretch in a long time? The mighty stalworth is finally dying off I think.

 

[Xeke]

Wow @ PS3 numbers. So what's the next "Wait for X" game for PS3? A couple more games like Trusty Bell and I think 360 might actually have a chance in Japan but maybe I'm being overly optimistic.

Yea you are. But that's okay.

 

[Square2005]

Where are the Famitsu nos.?
CVXfreak!

 

[GaimeGuy]

So, the DS has a new color for next week, right?

Anything else?

 

[LanceStern]

Wow, isn't this the PS2's worst numbers stretch in a long time? The mighty stalworth is finally dying off I think.

The scary thing is the people who were dropping off from PS2 were supposed to pick up the PS3 instead (ie GB - GBA - DS)... but that's not happening.

I still think PS3 can turn things around with the right releases. But that thought is QUICKLY vanishing

 

[Square2005]

Wow, isn't this the PS2's worst numbers stretch in a long time? The mighty stalworth is finally dying off I think.

The same could be said for the PS3. At least the PS2 has reached 20m...

 

[Mar]

So, the DS has a new color for next week, right?

What exactly are the new colours anyway?

 

[Cheesemeister]

Looking for this?
