Wastes hours checking old Famitsu software data, but that's why we love him.
Mario and Sonic is going to be big, big folks. Between the Wii and DS versions..I wouldn't be shocked if it gets close to 4M worldwide like Sega talked about.

Do we have any idea if this is selling in the U.S. yet? I haven't seen a copy since it came out. It HAS come out hasn't it?
 
You're not felipeko. Where is the sexy formatting? :D


Viva Pinata + Forza 2 moving up the charts are a sign that the 360 sales are starting to increase.
Looks like Gamestations £20 PES offer really helped push some sales.

again poor week for ps3. Best placed ps3 game is at 15. I think we can say that the hardware sales will be poor as well. Wasnt singstar just launched on UK ? Lets see, if singstar bombs:

"goodbye Sony, goodbye"
 
Don't worry guys I don't think Sony has spent all $2 million on marketing Uncharted yet.

Need for Speed is bombing a bit. Pro Street is a failure unless it usually picks up the week before Christmas?

That's indicative of nothing, of course it will bomb. Singstar/Singstore is a long term investment for Sony. Uncharted is short term and meant to be the system's game of the year. If Mario is a failure then what is this?

Don't look up.

Also, that formattng is indeed nosebleed inducing...

Oh and ME deserves better :(

Bundles, Forza 2 and Viva Pinata both around the same position, Forza must be selling more individual units to get a few places higher.

I'm guessing it is selling well, but that's just a gut feel. When I've been to retailers lately I've seen it right alongside Mario Galaxy in terms of being pushed.
 
Mario & Sonic is going to be a monster, in the UK at least. I expect it to stay in the top 10/20 for quite a long time. Go Sega!

Edit: Its even on top of the all prices chart, i guess it beat the record it set last week. I look forward to playing it on Christmas day.

which just shows how important those overall sales numbers are that chart track has shown for November, and not this pretty meaningless top 40 :).

I was under the impression that Microsoft were including an 'Entertainment Pack' with the console, which was Forza, VP and another controller in a box.

Isn't this it?

What? I have seen the ads for Uncharted and SingStar on TV a ton of times.
I was talking more about store presence (I don't watch a lot of TV :p). It really didn't feel like it was a big deal to the local stores around here. :/

well maybe singstar changes when more people see the ads. We should think about the fact that, singstar is a non-gamer game and they usually dont go to the shop and buy the game on the release date. At least we are talking about women mostly and we all know women think different.

That's just fucking sad. I don't care who you are or what your bias is, Uncharted deserves better than that.
Maybe when people are finished with Assassin's? That sold well on PS3 and is relatively long considering most people will play a couple of hours a week.

That's right, those games are bundled with the system, but they still count towards software sales. A few places have un-bundled them to sell seperately (shopto.net, £35 for the pack).

After Christmas you'll start to see them sold on their own a lot more, its what happened last Xmas with the PGR3+XBLA+Controller entertainment pack.

Some shops are probably bundling the games with the older model as well. I don't think the actual bundle counts.

Why was this even a surprise though? It had "bomba" written all over it.
 
I saw a Wii in CEX for £290 today. That's £100 more than I spent on mine a year ago!

If the supply situation in the UK is that bad that they're pulling adverts, I wouldn't be surprised if software in subsequent weeks suffers for it... obviously, there'll still be people buying Wii software as presents for both themselves and others, but I think for really high results, they need that hardware moving too.

Having said that, the story about them pulling ads did seem a bit odd to me, because for weeks I'd seen signs in shop windows saying "Wii console not in stock - please call in for details of our next delivery" and things like that -- but they disappeared recently. I was in HMV just the other day, and they'd just got a shed load by the looks of it. Sign outside saying they had them, people crowding the Wii section inside. So maybe they just pulled the ads because they know they don't need them?

SingStar has been really heavily advertised too. Now is the time it's going to hit Sony that they can't do mass market games yet, and that all that money should have went towards attracting the Uncharted demographic.

It could be the new VP game that came out(party animals?)

As for ME I haven't seen one advert for that on TV yet so that could be why(but then why advertise something where you dont own the sequel)
 
Someone with some messageboard skillz please reformat! ;)

Sad to see Mass Effect falling off the charts, Galaxy selling poorly, Uncharted starting so badly and Pro Street managing top 10. =(

Important to and for whom? There's no way you could call this chart meaningless, as it contains not just two exclusive PS3 titles, but one that is the next gen follow up to one of Sony's most successful mainstream titles in the EU.

Singstar sold because it was on a sub £100 console. Why would anyone buy a £300 console for something like Singstar? Its not as if HD video is going to make any difference to the experience, and I hardly expect Singstar's market to be the biggest acquirers of DLC so far. Singstar will start selling like it did on PS2 when the PS3 drops to £150 or less.
 
Suspected this might happen with Uncharted. Anecdotal I know but I know four people besides myself with PS3's and not one of them is buying Uncharted. All they want to do is play COD4 multi. Most frustrating, it really deserves better.
