What kind of sales can a title get in France? More than UK? Less? I think it's supposed to be one of the biggest markets in Europe, but how does that translate in to sales?

Graet, Animal Crossing dominated charts everywhere. Earlier in the UK charts thread, Gaybrush said that AC sales in France are higher than its sales in UK, so only in these 2 countries, it sold 150k+ in its first month, kodus to Nintendo.

TBW, once New SMB and Pokemon D/P hit.
If GTA was just competitive with Mario Kart, the PSP has absolutely nothing to counter the real megatons.

Yes, the UK represents ~30% of those five European countries for last year, not ~30% of all of Europe.

To be fair I think he meant PS2+DS+GBA+XB etc, not all countries.

But yeah, UK is about 25% of Europe, with France, Germany etc not too far behind.

But back to the original post, what exactly was your point Mono? That the Uk market is marginally bigger than France?

Given that the UK market is larger, I wonder if actual sales figures (as opposed to position in the charts) of AC and the other DS games are similar to that of France? A lot of the UK market is all of that licensed rubbish that parents buy for their kids.

DQ, on the other hand, is clearly a lot more popular in France - that would make sense though, given the Toriyama artwork (Dragon Ball was apparently really popular there, right?).

I think people should also appreciate that the three versions of Nintendogs together would probably make number 2 or 3, so AC + Nintendogs are flying the flag across Europe at the moment.

Really ? THIS is interesting. So the distance between DS and PSP is more and more larger in Uk: so is almost the same thing in Europe or better in Europe.
Sure Animal Crossing has done a great job !

It says DS was winning by about 130k by the end of 2005.

So i guess the only thing we can trust is EU official shipment #'s from both Nintendo and Sony, does anyone have those?

SOny was by 1,5 millions behind NIntendo through the end of december.

Ds outsold PSP in France, Great Britain, Germany not only during the Christmas period, but now it's still the case.

Which is one of the few situations where we can categorically say that shipped is very different to sold (for PSP).

Yes DB and especially DBZ were (and still are) extremely popular in France, so no wonder if DQ has success. :)

Well, there's a lot of confussion here.

In Spain, we know that since january psp has been selling great great. A lot of new packs helped it. In our magazine we don't receive numbers, but we know that the difference between psp and nds in Europe is not very big.
However here, nds and psp are two different markets completely completely completely different. NDS is a very special machine: nintendogs, mario kart, animal crossing, sonic rush, and a few others have had BIG sales (in Spain NDS + nintendogs is something similar to the tamagochi situation; lot of people bought NDS only for Nintendogs). But, on the other hand,a lot of titles have BOMBED pretty hard.
PSP is a more balanced sistems, similar to PS2. Nice sales of software and hardware (with pro evolution, gta,... having stellar sales).
People who play PSP or NDS are completely different, and developers know this.

Don't worry if nds has 1 million more or less. The two systems have a big future.
