VOOK

We don't know why he keeps buying PAL, either.
A empty month for releases isn't going to help the Wii U at all either.

Terrible.

3ds software continues to rock though Fantasy Life took a hit (supply issue?). Vita ushering in the new year with a bang and Wii U beginning to peter out?

Is it normal for PS3 to be selling 64k without any software releases, and barely any software even charting?

Also, Wii U dropped less than I expected.

That's a pretty tight race between the PS3 and WiiU, damn.

As for Vita, with a price drop and more good games like Soul Sacrifice the system might still have a chance to carve out a decent spot for itself, it seems.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free
Third Partys really need to embrace the 3DS - games are selling very well on the system.

Has there been any news on whether or not Nintendo makes a profit again on 3DSs? I'm assuming they do on the LL, but not sure if they would yet on the normal.

Paper Mario series:

[N64] Paper Mario (Nintendo) {2000.08.11} - 118.322 / 425.609
[GCN] Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door (Nintendo) {2004.07.22} - 137.750 / 398.218
[Wii] Super Paper Mario (Nintendo) {2007.04.19} - 156.055 / 505.491
[3DS] Paper Mario: Sticker Star (Nintendo) {2012.12.06} - 130.009 / 451.538
Miyamoto was right!
 
The 3DS performance has just been pure dominance lately. I guess it helps when you have no real competitor.

They are profitable now.

Vita - 33,309

There's really no better way to sum it up.

Now if it actually keeps that level it may finally become mediocre instead of dead!

The Wii U didn't really drop much this week, but I think now that New Years week is over, it'll probably drop to 40k a week till the release schedule starts.

WiiU doing last gen console numbers is not good. They need to get some new appealing software fast.

Some store guy report blog says used game markets were quite hot, including Vita & PS3.
Maybe Sony was right about not dropping PS3 price upon WiiU's launch, oh well.

I think they make a profit on it since September 2012 (?)

Those Wii U numbers will be way worse in the following weeks since no software will be released - could get ugly for them, reaallly ugly

Great Gif! :D

Btw, very solid 3DS numbers, while Wii U is starting its "tough" period now.
Great performance for Vita, especially because so unexpected! But also PS3 is exploiting this week that if I remember correctly confirms to be "Sony's New Year Eve" in terms of hardware.

3DS softwre is a beast, btw: AC can't be described; New Mario is really regaining its momentum and will cross the 2 million mark ASAP (together with MarioKart7); Paper Mario will become the best selling title of the franchise soon; Inazuma Go2 will easily beat its predecessor in terms of LTD, and so on and on...in particular:

15./00. [3DS] Professor Layton Vs. Ace Attorney <ADV> (Level 5) {2012.11.29} (¥5.980) - 30.235 / 249.689

Such a flop! Or maybe not...

Good New Mario and Land holding in the chart, btw...Wii U hw not good but could those two titles help it in hanging decently during January? Could be...

Haha Nintendo wishes it would be that high.

Nintendo needs to act fast, they have to capture ppl's attention before E3. After the new consoles are revealed they will have to work even harder.

Yeah. There was a lot of prediction here that Wii U is going to destroy PS3 as soon as it releases in Japan. Sony will only drop price if they see WiiU getting killer software.
 
We shall see next week.

*puffs chest out*

Lol, it's all in good fun. Speculation is fun.

Oh you meant next week. I assumed you meant it would stay at 40k until the release schedule actually picked up which isn't looking like it will happen until March or April at the earliest

Don't think Japan will care much about the new Xbox.

Ps4 could get interesting with the right software.

Its very interesting how things worked out, pretty much everyone thought Sony was nuts in not dropping the price with the new slim. Not only did it work out great for them but they now have a price drop card they can play at any time.
