Sports Champion counts toward HW or SW?

By the sounds of it, the bundle was in the accessories chart. The standalone would be in the software chart though obviously.

Either way, with the combined SKU approach, I wouldn't have expected it to be remotely in the top 10.

From the USA Today Article:



...What does that even mean?

I'm sure they meant "brought the franchise back" or "brought the series back"

Welcome to the charting ghetto, America.

34: Metroid: Other M - 3 copies

4 copies, it outsold Modern Warfare on 3 platforms.

So Other M should be something like what, 100k?

So Other M should be something like what, 100k?

Probably a decent guess, but nobody really knows.

*looks at standings*

Spider-bomb.

But according to Take Two Mafia II is profitable, so surely a game that sold slightly less and didn't take five years to develop was even more profitable. Spider-cha-ching!

Could it be that it sold more in Japan? :lol

Sony launched the Slim in September 2009, which sold close to 500,000 units that month. So, it's not a surprise to see a decline from Sony's September 2009 numbers.

Nintendo hasn't done anything to merit YOY increases.

Microsoft released Halo Reach, and continued to ride the momentum they started with their slim launch. Microsoft is the only company that should have been expected to beat their September 2009 numbers.

The biggest surprise to me, would have to be KHBBS charting that highly.

So... two points cards did better than Move?

Yep. The Move SKUs are tracked separately, however, so maybe Move as a whole outsold the cards.

...Or maybe not. Without numbers we'll never know, thus all the complaining.

If NPD starts providing multiplaform rankings from now on things are worse than I thought.

That's what they're doing now--no numbers, and by title instead of SKU (despite that console and handheld iterations can be pretty different).

"There are 5 games, one game sold twice as much as another game which sold 5,000 more copies than another game. The best selling game sold 3 times as much as the second lowest selling game which...."

"I'll pay! How much?!"
"Twice the fare from Tuscon to Flagstaff minus two thirds of the fare
Albuquerque to El Paso! Ha-ha-ha-ha!!!!!"
