Xbox One software is up 56% from last year, that's something.....

Spain has always been Sonyland since the PS1 days.

You can really see the crash in the economy hit the industry like a wrecking ball.

I was surprised to see that more portable consoles were sold in 2015 than in 2014, finally the decline stopped although those figures are really low.

The portable console market peaked in 2007 with nearly 2 million units sold.

[B]Portable console market (units)[/B]

2006 - 1,466,000
2007 - 1,947,000
2008 - 1,692,000
2009 - 1,340,000
2010 - 1,010,000 (917,000 according to 2011 report, a mistake or it was maybe adjusted down)
2011 - 883,000
2012 - 715,000

Those are a lot of wii games sold still...

 

[kruis]

PS4 +109%, Xbox One +56%

If software sales are an indication of hardware sales, it could mean that MS is selling only half the number of X1s compared to the previous year. Ouch.

No, that's the percentage of software sales increase.

So if PS4 sold 2 million software units, it increased by ~100% to approximately 4 million. And if Xbox One sold 200k software, it increased by ~50% to 300k.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Dat software.

 

[mocolostrocolos]

Yup, The Song Remains Still The Same.

 

[Kathian]

What's the Wii Us share in other markets? That seems pretty strong.

[Nightbird]

less than a year until the WiiU is replaced, and it's still trailing behind the Wii by a long shot.

that's sad

 

[Guymelef]

Spain is waiting for Scorpio.

 

[Primethius]

Top 20 is pretty much all Sony, though that's not surprising given the sw numbers.

Still pretty crazy.

Music industry 161.5M

 

[Bruno MB]

3DS software sales were pretty solid but there was a lack of big profile releases, that's why there is only 1 game in the top 20 and it is from 2014.

It's quite interesting that this is pretty much the result of treating non UK-Germany-France European countries as relevant in the console space back in the Playstation 1 days.

 

[Kresnik258]

Very interesting stuff, thanks Bruno. Vita seeing a softer drop this year than it did in the UK, it seems.
