NPD Sales Results for June 2007

Wow, over 100k? I did not know that. Last I remember was it opening at 10k or something in Japan, and not charting in the US.

Good for it, I bought it.

Elebits is around 130k in the US and around 62k in Japan. Assuming it bombed hard in Europe and only giving it 50k, you're still looking at 250k worldwide which is certainly not bad and almost certainly profitable.

Those Mario Party 4 numbers...what the hell?

And Guitar Hero 2 is the best selling 360 game of 2007.

For reals, Guitar Hero. Shooter box am dead.
 
Elebits under-selling is seriously a crime. That title deserved to sell a million copies.

...sorry, its actually my favorite Wii title. Sucks that people did not see its brilliance. I can't wait for Dewy Adventure.

Guitar Hero is so awesome that it transcends console stereotypes.
 
>.> At the people who think that the industry wouldn't be in trouble if it wasnt for the wii. Having to sell 600k to break even is like the death of niche games. Publishers dont give a shit about anything other than the money they make. If a wii game is twice as likely to make a profit then they would make a wii game instead.

Devs on the other hand want to be making a game for the ps3 or 360, but more often than not, they cant get the funding from publishers because of the high cost and profitability of an HD game.

Well, once 360s price cut comes, this will be fine and dandy. September 25th would be a great day for a price cut, wouldnt you say Microsoft?

if they do that, ms will be number 1 till xbox 720
 
You wonder why these topics get so big, then you see half the posts are people quoting and REquoting gifs

Congratulations on that.

I think that the NPD is renegging on its deal. We get crap for numbers nowadays. We were promised top 10s per console and stuff but we can't even get complete numbers for all the systems. :(

/wishing for the Sales-Age days of 2002
 
Some of you need to remember that the Wii came out last November. Excepting an hundred and one A+ games from third parties at this point is ridiculous.

yeah, I see the top 5 for each console posted on a number of other forums, but it seems we can't even source those when they were leaked elsewhere? Will we be officially getting this data at some point so we can acknowledge it?

100 dollar price cut and they'll be number one thru 2008.

Why?

2.2 million in a week says get the **** out

So your argument is this:

Halo 2 was on a console that sold 20 million worldwide, 20% of the PS2. Therefore, Halo 3's release on a more expensive console will result in 360 being the market leader.

Get the **** out yourself. Halo alone will have little impact on which console sells the most.
 
Someone should do the gasoline fight with the faces of Tretton, Shane Kim, and Jeff Bell with Peter Moore's mug pasted over Derek Zoolander's.

This post basically hit the nail on the head. We're at a loss for even a bare minimum of data here.

maybe your missing my point.........xbox have the best holiday season..... halo 3 is a monster.....gta 4 is a monster....potential console price drop = more user base.

Will sell millions of copies? Or consoles? Do you know what you're arguing?

do you....of course i'm talking about game sells..... and to say that gta 4 and halo 3 won't sell console is just stupid... i'm gonna buy a 360 for halo 3 alone. Of course i don't think this applies for everyone, but come on. :lol

No, we get your point. It's just wrong.

So Xbox 360 is going to outsell Wii this year? I think you should bet your account on it. Just so we have some hope to hold on to.
