The DS had a good run.

 

[schuelma]

Not as bad for Wii as I suspected- perhaps its bottomed out. And with Strikers for next week, I bet this is the lowest Wii number of the year.

 

[brokenwatch]

Has the 360 ever gone under 1000?

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

Wow, PSP > DS was something I never thought ii'd see again.

 

[kenta]

Jeez, every week has been lower than the last for the Wii which is really bizarre

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

Holy shit @ Wii, Nintendo better be pushing that panic button because the Wii has taken a nose dive and is dragging the DS along with it!

Wow @ PSP, though we all know that it`s not gonna last.

 

[reilo]

PS3 staying steady at 13K for two weeks in a row now.

Wii has another 3K drop down to 26K.

 

[Raw64life]

Updated more detailed hardware numbers on the first post.

 

[botticus]

Looks like Wii and DS have just about bottomed out... well, I guess that includes PS2 and 3 as well. Starting to wonder if the PS2 is ever going to die.

4 digits even in a slump week. Mistwalker investment justified total.

1-3 aren't in the right order.

Now this is interesting... even as a Wii fan. How long can WiiSports prop a system up to insane heights? A little over nine months apparently.

Is the Wii party over?

The Wii psychosis seems to be.

It's still the Japanese console market leader, and by a fairly large amount but yes the consistent sell outs, and even sustained high sales (with stock) seems to have stopped. It's time for them to get more games out there before they lose all momentum.

WTH is happening to the Wii and DS??

[sphinx]

Wii just reached PSP territory. Nothing to be proud of...

Few games and all consoles on a down recently.

The 77,777 CC PSP's don't count so really only 17,710 real PSP's sold.
(I kid)

Well, the game drought is about over so I wouldn't be shocked if this is the lowpoint of the year.

 

[RiskyChris]

Wii just needs a little bit of Easter magic, just like its big brother.

 

[Jcgamer60]

It will be interesting to see how the Wii does for the next couple of weeks.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

Well, the game drought is about over so I wouldn't be shocked if this is the lowpoint of the year.

It probably will be... but I'd say until one of the big namers is out that it will still stay low.

 

[Saitou]

Calm before the storm, people.




Calm before the storm.

 

[schuelma]

It will probably stay low relatively speaking, but I think it will stabilize a bit higher than it is now.

BREATHE DEEP BOYS!

 

[Souldriver]

Well, this sure is a change from the last time I entered a MC thread, like 2 months ago.

The Wii is doing really bad it seems. 0_o And the DS under 100.000 OMG
The holiday season could make a change to that, but as of now, I don't understand why the Wii has fallen so hard. Demand over? Larger shipments to the US (seems so) and Europe?

 

[Thunder Monkey]

Yes... it does look like he's got lusty manthoughts in his eyes.

 

[Galactic Fork]

DS is up over last week at least... seems ~80k might be its new stability all the massive RPGs start hitting. I really hope they sell!

 

[AniHawk]

People have decided they don't like games anymore, so they all bought PSPs instead.

End of summer slow down affecting everyone, including DS

No software released in a while

And possible..finally, after almost a year, Wii Sports may be getting a bit old?

Sonys Rise to heaven starts now

Those numbers are only done on purpose to give us some entertainment (spwolf and Tabris) in this thread.

 

[Dan]

The Wiis are going to North America...? I've actually been seeing them in stores here lately.

Nope, just low demand.

 

[the thoroughbred]

Actually I reckon, its a combination of now new releases, a little market saturation, and low Wii supply. For the time being, we have just gone on over 24 months of watching the DS do 100k plus numbers week in and week out. Its about time, the public can pay there mortgages or rent or something. They can't just keep buying games.

Anyhow I do expect to see Animal Crossing, NSMB, BT2, Wii sports/play back in the top 10 at one point between now and January 08.

We have noticed for the last 3-4 weeks that the multi-million sellars club has been round the 10k numbers each. But we have seen this happen before, only for them to bounce right back around November, in time for Holiday season, where they are hitting 50-100k.

 

[UFC_Couture]

No one buys consoles in Japan. Wii supposedly falling off, but still twice as much as PS3, at its lowest point ever. At least Nintendo has time to catch up in manufacturing for the holiday rush, maybe I can find some stuff this year.

 

[perfectchaos007]

Same here. I see all 3 next gen consoles at my local stores now. Wii fad is over guys everyone can go home now. Maybe thats why Nintendo is just now releasing it in South Africa. They got 9 months to enjoy the fad so it continues at least SOMEWHERE in the world.

At its lowest point ever Wii is still selling twice as much as its closest competitor and people are still predicting doom and gloom for Nintendo? :lol

Spoiler

...or maybe my sarcasm detector is broken?

 

[Vilix]

Not too worried about the DS. I suspect SSBB and Wii Fit will spur Wii demand in the coming months.

Nnnno. We saw this happen to the PSP. It was supply-constrained for several months and finally the bottom fell out once the Japanese figured out it wasn't worth buying I guess. Of course, they released a new color this week or something so that's why it's so big right now.

 

[Fina1e]

The PSP "Lite" launched today in Japan right?

 

[Ether_Snake]

I predict: Wii Fit will crash even in Japan.

 

[Sage00]

Yep.

Or yesterday.

 

[tanod]

Wow.

Maybe Sony should have dropped the price of PS3 this week. That would make next week REALLY interesting.

Even though PSP outsold the DS week-on-week in Japan at some point, DS always lead on PSP LTD, so both situations aren't comparable at all.

Strikers will ensure that it's not allowed to go below double the PS3 weekly numbers

But then we'll never get to see everyone doing this!
