PAL Charts - Week 2, 2008

The bundle with Uncharted is working...Sony is on to something:lol

Allot of games deserve the sales...Notice the people who are saying...and then it comes to mind...1st party exclusive on PS3 is the reason:lol

Which one ?
 
WTF @ BBAWii, where the hell did that one come from?!

Good to see Uncharted holding steady (And actually rising! Looks like I was right about increasing demand after all :D) 360 software generally seems to be falling though while PS3 is rising, interesting!
 
I thought people from Englad noted that Uncharted is bundled with PS3. So it doesn't speak much for or against the sales of the game either way. December NPD numbers should be a better barometer or how the game is really selling.
 
So Uncharted is bundled? Is it an official bundle? I mean with a own art on the box or atleast a sticker? Or is it just a normal PS3 that includes the game? If its bundled its no wonder that its been relatively high on the list for the last weeks (if its been bundled all these weeks of course). But regardless, a sale is a sale eh? ;)

Hm, i didn't read all PAL sales charts but i thought the bundle Pick'n'mix thing started today so it couldn't have been reflected on this chart.

Well it'll certainly help sales for Uncharted 2. We might even see another Viva because of it being bundled.

Since when? the ps3 bundles are terrible lately, not quite Wii bad but probably a sign that sales for the thing are picking up. Not even resistance is bundled with it anymore. My brother just bought a 40gb and the best he could find was Ghost recon 2 ffs

Sure, i'm not downplaying the Uncharted sales because of a bundle, i'm just saying that it makes sence that its stayed up there so long. If people are buying it i'm sure they want to try out the game atleast :)
 
Seems like Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 bombed horribly this christmas.

But why were Super Paper Mario and Mario Strikers resurrected? New Wii owners catching up the Wii library?
 
Lightning said:
Yeah, Mass Effect has disappointed everywhere in Europe. The game just didn't sell that well.

Mass Effect cracked 100k in UK alone which puts it right around where Uncharted is in UK and judging from the reaction in this thread to UC, it's doing fine. Both games deserve their success.

Frillen said:
Galaxy must be selling amazingly. Uncharted as well, even though it hasn't cracked the top 10 yet. It's a pitty that we don't get any numbers.
Gaalxy has moved over 300k in UK. See http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=9264625&postcount=212.
 
When is Ghost Squad being released in Europe?

Sho_Nuff82 said:
Actually that doesn't make sense at all. It's optical media. There should not be extended shortages, it's 2008 and the game isn't THAT popular.
All format No. 1 game when it was in stock? It happened before and to games that are less popular. I can't understand the reason for these shortages as well but they are quite real.

spwolf said:
sure you can.
Wii's hardware numbers in Europe through the roof, 360 beats PS3 handily in both hard- and software sales - all thanks to extrapolating, not bad :lol .

Surprised that Wii is so high (esp. factoring in cheaper hard/software), thought it's not really popular in Scandinavia.

Play has it for 39 €. Still too expensive though.

Software revenue as already pointed out, but here are the hardware numbers LTD:

- PS2 = about 600k
- PS3 = about 57k
- Wii = about 57k

No numbers for 360 since MS wont give them out. No numbers for PSP or DS either for some reason, dont know why.

Bravo, Sega, bravo. :/

Like RE4, it's not full-price for a 3rd party game (in the UK at least). I believe the RRP is £29.99, and £24.99 from most online retailers.

The general third-party Wii RRP is £39.99. Nintendo games tend to be about five pounds less.

Officially starts Friday, but some have started early (ie this week). Previous uncharted sales are due to adverts.

£29.99 not £39.99 in the UK, and £25 from GamePlay.com. Well worth that.

Chessis announced as £19.99 now too so thats a relief!

PC sells more software as Wii + 360 + PSP combined eh? Nice :D Go go Europe!

viva pinata?



wow

It's a good game, and it's WW LTD is over 500K now, I'm pretty sure I read it in a press release, and it's quite believable. It's been in the top 40 charts for this PAL threads for weeks and it's a year old. It could've been in the charts even more. I think it's bundled with some systems in the UK.

It's in the holiday bundle with Forza 2 in Europe.

It comes inside some 360 boxes on one disc with Forza 2, which dont get counted however some retailers dont have the 360's with the games inside and give a full copy of the game away as part of their bundles.

A lot of retailers take Forza 2 and VP out of the box and make their own bundles that why not all 360 bundles in the UK come with Viva pinata.

bundle starts this week only... there was no bundle before, retailers might have packed some game or something but it definetly wasnt an Sony bundle.

Likely even more than that considering that those marketshares are based on revenue and PC games are generally cheaper than video games. (Especially PS3 and 360 games.)

Scandinavia is very PC dominated compared to most of Europe, though.
 
I'm pretty sure I saw official PS3 40GB bundles with Uncharted, F1 or some other games (Ratchet?) here in Spain.

Yes, but I am sure they are optional. You can get a PS3 bundle with either Uncharted, Resistance, F1, Motorstorm and Ratchet.

I seriously doubt that every PS3 sold in UK comes with Uncharted in it. I may be wrong, but I just doubt it. I am sure the bundle option is there, but you can but a PS3 with another game if you choose.

People may just be choosing Uncharted because it's the best PS3 game on the market, imo, in that case it would make them clever buyers. :lol

Of course, I'm speaking about a 1:3 ratio for bundles/normals.

Also that shop (MediaMarkt) has some bundles with GH3 or accesories like BT headsets.

if thats true, its not in UK... there were not Sony bundles in UK until this week. This will be reflected next monday. Also, bundle basically means that for 50 GBP you get 2 games (save around 10-12 GBP total), games are not free.

I am not sure what kind of bundle there was in spain, but in continental europe, bundles are usually packed in with hardware and thus not counted in software charts.

Small extra comment. I'm not 100% sure if the PS3 and Wii numbers are from 2007 only. If they are, the Wii should be higher since it was launched early in December 2006. But since they mention 600k on PS2 which is the LTD i would assume that Wii and PS3 is also LTD as well :)
