NPD Sales Numbers For June 2010

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

NPD for June changes things up a little bit with the Xbox 360 just barely taking the number 2 spot thanks to stock clearing sales on the old model 360′s and the release of the 360 short. Red Dead and Galaxy 2 continue to hold the first 3 software slots, while Toy Story 3 for DS and Lego Harry Potter Wii make a strong showing for licensed titles. Being beaten in the portable space by Toy Story 3 must be painful for Hideo Kojima whose Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker failed to chart on that unlovable loser the PSP. Alpha Protocol, Singularity, and Transformers should also commit seppuku for their horrible sales this month.

Nintendo DS 510,700
Xbox 360 451,700
Wii 422,500
PlayStation 3 304,800
PSP 121,000

Updating with the rest of the top 20:

11. Pokemon SoulSilver DS
12. Transformers War For Cybertron 360
13. New Super Mario Bros. DS
14. Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 2 360
15. FIFA World Cup 360
16. FIFA World Cup PS3
17. Mario Kart Wii
18. Pokemon HeartGold DS
19. Toy Story 3 Wii
20. Wii Sports Resort

Also some numbers for specific games were released.
Transformers 360 did 132,000, and Wii Sports Resort in the 20 position sold less than 100,000 which should give you an idea of how bad some of this month’s other releases did. Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker failed to even crack the top 20 selling only 52,000 copies. Even worse numbers for Green Day Rock Band which sold only 83,000 copies between ALL 3 of the console releases. Skate 3 only sold 253,000 copies in it’s first 2 months down forty percent from Skate 2, and Tiger Woods 11 dropped 68 percent from last year’s release, due entirely to Tiger’s unquenchable love of white meat being made public this year.

According to the twitter account of an IGN employee some bombs of the month are in this order:
Naughty Bear > Singularity > Sin and Punishment
Perhaps if Singularity, or Sin and Punishment had had any promotion whatsoever they might have had at least a remote chance of beating out Naughty Bear!

Sony claims to be selling 200k PS3′s a week in Europe, and 200k in U.S. for Black Friday

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

Howard Stringer Sony

From Bloomberg

PlayStation 3 SalesChief Financial Officer Nobuyuki Oneda said Oct. 25 that the company may miss its target to sell 11 million of the consoles during the year ending March 31.

The company sold 2.02 million PlayStation 3 machines in the first half ended Sept. 30. That’s less than one-third the 7.34 million for the $250 Wii, which sports a motion-sensing controller that users can swing like a golf club or brandish like a sword, with movements replicated on screen.

Ken Kutaragi, developer of the PlayStation consoles, retired in June after production delays caused PS3 sales to lag behind rival game consoles.

The PlayStation 3 outsold the Wii for the first time in Japan last month, after Sony cut prices and offered a cheaper model, Tokyo-based research firm Enterbrain Inc. said in November.

Stringer today said the company sells about 200,000 PlayStation 3 consoles in Europe each week, and 40,000 to 50,000 in Japan. It also sold more than 200,000 in the U.S. following “Black Friday,” the day after Thanksgiving.
