Wow, he must be VERY old fashioned if he doesn't have a smartphone. Where does he live, in Africa or something?

do you not have a smartphone?

 

[thirty]

didnt pachter give pretty good numbers on cnet the other day? 360 1.4m, wii, 1m, ps3, 700k.

 

[Subitai]

Just like last month, they must have seen how few leaks popped out due to releasing right before the weekend

When and who leaked numbers? Why can't they be leaked now?

Sony is the cause for this delay.

Uncharted 3 was uncharted. :/

Sony PR guy needed another day to get the wording right.

Ya, I totally blame Sony.

 

[chubigans]

I'm mad because JVMs article will suffer as a result.

 

[Carl]

I shall be away until Tuesday with no access to a computer. Fail

do you not have a smartphone?

Wow, he must be VERY old fashioned if he doesn't have a smartphone. Where does he live, in Africa or something?

Near the top end of my data allowance.

 

[Kusagari]

Sony's the only one who hasn't given us any November numbers (besides the Uncharted WW numbers) so I'm blaming them.

thats his prediction but the actual numbers might be around those.

 

[Alrus]

Aww I was excited Wanted to see the reaction to Just Dance 3 being the top selling SKU.

Thats not possible.

 

[Mindlog]

Numbers are good. I want more map pack sales figures. I need to gauge heavily invested online user numbers ahead of next-gen console releases.

 

[Frillen]

amazing thread.

Better than the recent NPD threads.

 

[jvm]

Well, as it turns out, my situation has changed. I will be doing shorter, regular columns and NPD will be one of those each month. The big 4+ page feature on Monday after NPD results is no more.

However, Pachter doesn't have the final word on monthly game sales; NPD does. And that firm is expected to make its data available after markets close on Thursday.

Should be interesting to see how near/far he was

 

[LiquidMetal14]

FFS I got out the whiskey, venison jerky, homemade noodle casserole, and good slippers in preparation for this and we get a slap in the face with a wet sock!

 

[bluehat9]

real numbers have been lost, need a day to come up with decent fake ones.

 

[OTIX]

Wow, he must be VERY old fashioned if he doesn't have a smartphone. Where does he live, in Africa or something?

lol they have smartphones in Africa.

Near the top end of my data allowance.

lol data allowance, do you live in Africa or something?

 

[Road]

You could have tag quoted.

Well, can't blame you. There's so much you can talk about with only a list of 10 games. =P

 

[KingDizzi]

Sony PR just released:

This has been a great month for the Playstation ecosystem. Our blockbuster title UC3 sold 200k copies more than what the same game did one year ago. That's 1200000000 cents making it a phenomenon first party sales wise.

Aw man. Understandable, but I'm bummed. Freakin NPD and their limited sharing of numbers. Ugh!

secondapps.com/neogaf - use it, love it, adore it.

It won't even kill your data allowance.

 

[Alrus]

Thats not possible.

Totally possible

(Not really but it will still have sold better than a lot of other games people like better and thus it'll be amusing to see their reactions)

 

[WrikaWrek]

Thought 360 would have a bigger jump.

Didn't know the Ps3 sold so few units last year.

Sony fired the PR guys no?

Tommorow is going to be fun.

 

[acm2000]

delayed? wow, sony consoles sold so few, they had to recount to make sure? (based on sonys complete and utter silence regarding black friday)

or did someone at npd hq accidentally delete the spreadsheet? lol

 

[LiquidMetal14]

The sales figures were eaten by the dog.

 

[Megadragon15]

Maybe Wii outsold the Xbox 360 and Microsoft wants to hide that by delaying it one day.

 

[Jive Turkey]

EviLore runs it as a dictatorship. Not cheap.

He's a total slumlord too. Carl's toilet has been leaking through my ceiling for seven months now.

 

[Satchel]

First Sony want the numbers hidden from view, now delaying the Black Friday news one more day?

Blast them.

 

[Carl]

Awesome, cheers

 

[Wazzim]

360 sale figures must have blown the data sheets through the window.

 

[freddy]

Well I don't know if I can save this popcorn until tomorrow. I guess I'll have to stay strong.

 

[KageMaru]

In this business, it's called momentum.

That's the only time we'll see RAGE in this month's NPD thread, btw.

I lol'ed at these two comments.

 

[AceBandage]

Don't they always delay the Novemeber NPD?

 

[TheOddOne]

Sony fired the PR guys no?

Tommorow is going to be fun.

Nope, it was the marketing guys.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

The mailman's truck crashed on the way to the NPD office. In his vigilent attempt to deliver tallies, he slipped on banana peel on the way there by foot and PING. 3rd degree concussion. Sales went into the sewer.

 

[TheOddOne]

I always had such fun reading those

 

[Neuromancer]

I didn't even realize they were supposed to be out today but now I'm mad!

 

[BurntPork]

Apple fanboy saw the DS and 3DS numbers and had to recount because handhelds are dead, so there's no way that so many were sold.

Alternatively, 3DS sold so bad that Nintendo needed time to spin it.

They don't need to spin it any more than they already have.
"Sold more than the DS did in the same time period."

You've been wrong about pretty much everything so I wonder, are you related to Michael Pachter by any chance?

 

[Kermit The Frog]

Is that 6.30 am or pm?

 

[Zeouterlimits]

Sad to hear that jvm.

Also curse you NPD!!!!

I was joking. We know that 3DS sold >720k, which is good for a first November.

[LiquidMetal14]

The numbers are in ancient hieroglyph dialect and need special archaeological translation.

 

[matmanx1]

How am I supposed to enjoy my video games without knowing which ones are selling well/poorly!?!?

This is an OUTRAGE!

This post wins.
