It's been absolutely obvious that we can stick a fork in the Wii U in terms of being a mainstream success of any measure for weeks now.
Eking out profitability and selling to the base is absolutely going to be the focus.

I agree about Nintendo, though I think it started way earlier than 2005 if Rare's experiences are anything to go by, but the others?
Microsoft may be coming up with new IPs but they're all from new studios or partnerships. All their established studios are working on their established franchises and the biggest studio they had negotiated themselves out of the company because they didn't want to work on Halo for the next 20 years.
Activision's somewhat similar. They may be publishing Destiny but that's a new partnership. Everything else is the same old.
I'd go into EA and Ubisoft but I don't want to go on forever.
But that's not to say that I agree with the idea that Sony's the only company that ever would've published TLoU. I think Square Enix and Take 2 would've, if they owned Naughty Dog. They're both pretty great when it comes to giving their developers the creative freedom and time to do whatever they want. Sure it tends to backfire sometimes with bad games, enormous budgets or both but we've still managed to get great games like Bioshock, Spec Ops and Deus Ex: HR out of them.

I see Sly Cooper rose in the finnish charts. That game is like a drug to us!
Unsurprisingly TLOU holds top spot here and in Denmark.

TLOU should be #1 for a while. You can see this game really resonating with the mainstream with the amount lets plays on youtube and twitch. Good job ND and Sony. Also really nice seeing GOW:A still charting.
Sad news regarding the Wii U software sales. I suspect it will be even dreadful this holiday season not due to new gen, but primarily because of GTA5. It will hurt Nintendo so much not having that title on their console.

That seems high. What kind of numbers did the various uncharted game do?

ND is great and all but they're nowhere near Rockstar or Valve.

Uncharted sold under 100k, Uncharted 2 is at 122k and Uncharted 3 hit 164k. Uncharted 3 debuted at 124k.
Right. They are much better.

Eh, I'd take ND over both. I didn't even know they existed until this gen but they've totally blown my socks off. I can't help but feel like Rockstar have fallen off a bit (although I'm sure GTA5 will correct me on that).
Of course, it's all personal preference ultimately.
Na, not really, GTA IV was a bit disappointing (still good game though) but Red Dead Redemption and Max Payne 3 were both amazing.
I´m positive that GTA V will make us forget about IV pretty fast. looks incredible so far.

Exclusively in Greece, I assume?
That's a shame, it deserves way better. I can see it hitting Top 10 in Spain and Italy though.
The developer behind it is not very big, so it might have still done well depending on their expectations. No idea.
yes they have a big output and they release several games per year but being so low in the charts means that they sold really bad. remember fuse?
I don't remember how sbk and wrc games did.

standard and some kind of collector edition?
That's correct. Preorder charts and next gen:
MS 180 moveseems to have worked out. Forza 5 entered the preorder charts on #15. Only Xbox One title in there.
#03-#05 are Fifa 14, Watch Dogs and Destiny (all PS4). Killzone 4 is on #8 or #10 (I forgot). #1 is the new The Sims addon and #2 Company of Heroes 2.
TLoU marketing budget must be huge. Never saw so many TV ads for a game. But I don't watch TV often.
MS added Greece to xboxlive in late 2010. Sony was there with PSN at the launch. Nintendo was never that strong there - it's a playstation country. PS 1 was huge back in the days. Probably because of piracy.

You know its still hard to find this game in stores. My local supermarkets and game did not have it in stock for two weeks. The hell is wrong with them.
TLOU or AC ? If its latter...yeah gotta push those eShop sales ;-)

TLoU. Usually in the UK games get discounted a bit after a couple of weeks but this was still £40 in the supermarket I bought it at :/

Oh wow PS2 game charted in top 10
Also Greeks seem to be football crazy.How many countries is the last of us number 1 in?
I've not kept up with the charts, but what's up with tomb raider doing so much better than bioshock infinite?
edit: strike that, what's up with bioshock having such poverty stricken legs? Games with high metacitics (90+) usually do alright long term right?

TLOU still nº1 everywhere it seems and only a 35% drop in the UK is not bad. A lot of people are complaining that it's hard to find so it could probably have been even less.

Tomb Raider was the better game IMO. It certainly has more mass appeal. Glad it's doing well.

The Last of Us is sold out in my local gamestore here in Holland as well.
This game is doing major business, which is well-deserved.

Awesome for Naughty Dog to have the game selling like crazy!
I live in the States and I simply cannot find a copy anywhere near me. I've been to 2 Best Buys, 2 Targets and a couple more GameStops and they're ALL sold out. I can't remember the last time I couldn't get a game on launch day due to selling out, let alone a week+ after it's been out!!! Crazyness!

It's 36th. Considering it's at 29.99, this means it sold less in its debut week than Lego Legend of Chima for 3DS in its second week :lol
