PAL Charts - Week 34, 2015

Half price known IP vs game I've yet to see any UK marketing for full price and brand new. I love the premise of the game and I've got it pre-loaded ready to go for tomorrow, so I hope I'm wrong.

I'm not saying it will do badly, just not as good as those two. Probably better than Rare Replays debut easily.

EDIT: Googled for a UK TV advert and looked on YouTube. Unless they're planning a blitz soon, I can't see it happening. The Order had a shitton more.

Yeah, I haven't seen any ads either. Maybe Sony are waiting for the reviews to come out and then start a blitz with review scores littered throughout? Although they've cut it pretty close if that's their plan. There's a very cool Butterfly trailer on YT that could double up as a TV ad...

Still, I think it will do very well. It's just a gut feeling and while those are about as useful as numbers from chartzzzz, I'm going with the gut.

I also don't think Gears will do nearly as well due to the bad smell that MCC left behind. Another remake from MS? Could be mistakenly seen as just as bad by some...

Ehh there was an open beta for the game so people know how it works. And it's a known ip. I don't think it'll do amazing but I can see 70k opening easily. Plus it's bundled so however many Xbox are sold that week will go towards it

Gears of War series UK sales:

Code:
(90%)

[s][Week 46, 2006] GEARS OF WAR (MICROSOFT) ~ 68,900 / NEW[/s]

[s][Week 45, 2008] GEARS OF WAR 2 (MICROSOFT) - 253,675 / NEW[/s]
[s][Week 46, 2008] GEARS OF WAR 2 (MICROSOFT) - 91,325 / 345,000 (-64%)[/s]
[Week 47, 2008] GEARS OF WAR 2 (MICROSOFT) - ? / 345,000

Wrong numbers, I ate the last week of November (Week 47, 2008) and we are missing the percentage drop so we can't calculate how it did in the previous 2 weeks.

[Week 38, 2011] GEARS OF WAR 3 (MICROSOFT) - 322,580 / NEW
[Week 39, 2011] GEARS OF WAR 3 (MICROSOFT) - 77,420 / 400,000 (-76%)

[Week 12, 2013] GEARS OF WAR: JUDGEMENT (MICROSOFT) ~ 80,645 / NEW

[Week 35, 2015] GEARS OF WAR: ULTIMATE EDITION (MICROSOFT)

Maybe 30k for Gears Ultimate?
 
Wonder what the LTD is for Splatoon in France since it was at 75k at week 25.
Maybe 120k Ltd in France?
Also wonder hows it doing in Germany as well.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
Nearly 100k as of july in France for Splatoon.

As of July, thus up to week 31.

Week 25 - 75,000 + bundles
Week 31 - nearly 100,000

Minimum units sold between Week 26 to Week 31 - nearly 25,000
Minimum weekly average of units sold between Week 26 to Week 31 - nearly 4,167

EDIT: Corrected due to The_lascar's precisation

Excerpt of Germany Week 34, from mediabiz press release information:

01 (01) PS4 GRAND THEFT AUTO V (TAKE 2)
02 (02) PS4 THE WITCHER III: WILD HUNT (BANDAI NAMCO ENTERTAINMENT)
03 (03) PS4 THE LAST OF US: REMASTERED (SONY COMPUTER ENT.)
...
09 (__) PS4 RISEN 3 (ENHANCED EDITION)

- Top 10 split: 6 PS4, 2 Wii U, 1 PC, 1 XBO
- Risen 3 (Enhanced Edition) PS4 (only new release in top 100)

I'm not sure if that means the other Risen 3 SKUs didn't even make top 100.

Risen 3 (Enhanced Edition) was only released on PS4. PC got (or getting) a free graphics upgrade.
Thanks!

That is one dull chart that seems to have low numbers associated with the titles. Not bad for MS to have majority of top ten but given the apparently low sales numbers it's effectively meaningless.

Need those big Autumn/Winter spikes to shake things up.

Yeah, MS has been bolstered by having some great console deals from some retailers over the summer, so the slightly back catalogue multi platform stuff has gotten a boost from people catching up. Fully expecting MGS PS4 to smash XB1, but looking at how well Lego has done, Infinity 360 might win that multi-format war.

Did it come out on XB1 as well? Not that it really matters in a German chart...

We still didn't get the half-year chart from Gamesmarkt?

Last week was the week when that chart was supposed to be published. I guess they didn't include it because it was an issue devoted entirely to Gamescom.


This means we can also say goodbye to monthly charts, overall software sales by platform were collected from those charts.

I think MCV's campaign deserves a thread on its own, considering its impact on weekly MCV magazine's issues and how relevant it is.

I agree. I also agree with MCV that the charts are essentially meaningless, but do with have a recent split on digital v retail in the UK? I can't imagine it being that close on console with the prices of new releases on PSN and the XBox marketplace.

They put out the software revenue figure for retail in the UK this week in MCV UK, but I haven't seen a July 2015 platform breakdown. Sad if that disappears. :(

What's the source of this? And considering the PS4 was at 0.56 million in December 2014 (selling half a million in a year), would it be safe to assume closer to 1 million by now?

Sell in/through?

Nordisk film is the source. they are the distributes of PlayStation in the Nordic regions. Numbers are sell in. Although the PS1 numbers are from Screen Digest/IHS and more than likely will be sell through as no company ever reported sell in for PS1 numbers. The LTD is what matters though.

Also PS4 is not at 0.56m, it's at 0.50m. The numbers above are the cumulative sell in.

Bank holiday today? Usually we get an update by now...

DAY OFF! WOO HOO!

MS pretty much ran the show last week from those numbers. I wonder if tomorrow's numbers look about the same adding in Gears. ..
