That's an oversimplified way of looking at things. Xbox went down from 2002 to 2003, but went on to have its best year by far in 2004.borghe said:
So we now know that 9.27 million Wiis were shipped by the end of June. So if we add July NPD + Media-Create numbers from the beginning of July until now we would have updated numbers for everywhere upto June, and US + Japan numbers (when NPD comes out) upto the end of July / early August.

Shipped != Sold
There is an obvious lag between shipping and selling if you look at the U.S. + Canada total through June and the "Americas" shipped number through June. Remember that June NPD actually goes a week into July whereas the shipped number is through June 30.

Someone insert that one image where it goes:
Nintendo -> Sony
Sony -> Nintendo
There is no doubt X360 will do well this holiday season in North America. However, I still have doubts about how much Halo 3 will push systems anymore than last holiday season. Meanwhile, the Wii will sell every unit they can push onto shelves worldwide. The hype train continues.

Wait, did Europe not even pick up on the regular Nintendo or the Super? Europe deserves to get games like 2 years after us those snobby bastards.

Crazy world kids. I thought people from Germany were saying that you can find Wiis everywhere. Probably some troll that has a Tomba tattoo on his neck I suppose.
Every Nintendo home system has failed to dominate Europe.AlternativeUlster said:
NES ---> C64/Amiga
SNES ---> Megadrive/Amiga
N64 ---> PS1
GC ---> PS2
The GB range was popular, but DS and Wii are in a different league. Wii is the first huge selling home system for Nintendo in the region.
EDIT-
During the 80s home computers were by far the most popular systems in the UK and most of Europe, no console had a hold on the market the way NES held NA and Japan.

No, it's true. You can find the Wii everywhere here in Germany. But that is obviously a good thing seeing these more than healthy sales.AlternativeUlster said:

The Sega Genesis sold 14m in NA (which the Xbox incidentally outsold), about 3-4m in Japan (the PC Engine/Turbografx was much more popular), and about 11-12m in other regions including Europe and Australia.
Other Nintendo home consoles for the "Other" regions are:
NES: 8.56m
SNES: 8.58m
N64: 6.75m
GC: 4.76m
Wii is currently at 2.51m after 7 months of sales.
Handhelds were always pretty popular. The GB/C sold 42m, the GBA sold 22m, and the DS is currently at 15m.

Yeah, I original thought it just wasn't do well in Germany. I am glad to be mistaken.

Those numbers are quite something else. I can't even understand why NES or SNES didn't even catch on at all. Those were the greatest 2 systems of all time. So is it possible then that Super Mario Bros 3 or even the original Super Mario Bros sold less in Europe than Super Mario Land?

From the link Slaughter provided (thx):
May PS3 numbers: 13.000
May 360 numbers: 8.000
So both went down quite a bit for their July numbers.
Doesn't really come as a surprise. A lot of 360 games can be found on the PC as well which is still very popular here. PS3 is simply too expensive at 599,-. Both consoles are also hurt due to very low HD adoption rate, which isn't bound to change anytime soon since there are too few HD broadcasts.

Around the NES era home computers (Commodore's, Spectrums and the like) were much more popular, but I belive the Master Sytem still sold more than the NES. The Mega Drive reigned supreme in the 16 bit era, or at least that's how it played out in the UK.

It's the YTD Jan-Jun, from the first post of our Canada NPD thread. Looks like a case of GAF -> Internet -> GAF.Xzbeat said:
