Nintendo:3rd Quarter Financial Results Briefing - Presentation by the President
This is the sales transitions of home consoles in the European market.Except for in the U.K., Xbox 360 has a weak presence throughout Europe.Wii sales rose sharply to the top in the 43rd week, which is when we released the red Wii hardware.The sales pace picked up even more speed during the year-end sales season. As I mentioned earlier, unlike in the U.S.,PS3 sells better than Xbox 360 in Europe.The only European country which has a relatively similar sales trend to the U.S. is the U.K.
Some notes:
- The PS3 sold about 100,000 units per week during October 2010.In contrast,PS3 averaged 62,500 per week in the U.S. according to October 2010 NPD
- PS3 sales remained almost flat during the last quarter compared with the same period a year ago until Sony released Gran Turismo 5 (Week 47)
- December 2010 was the best month ever for PS3 hardware sales.Weekly PS3 sales peaked at 300,000 units,setting a new record in December
