Japan is carrying Switch at the moment.- Switch is in decline and declines by double digits (in August)
- There's nothing as big as TOTK on the horizon
- Switch 2 not releasing for over another 12 months??
Make it make sense.
Yea but that's more a testament to 360 success than PS3 failure.Wow, didn't realize how badly X360 was beating PS3 in the US.

few games are anywhere near totk, and a new Mario is coming out, don't forget how big those actually are- Switch is in decline and declines by double digits (in August)

What's weird is that the appeared to be doing everything right in the beginning. Most power console and cheapest console plus gamepass. It seemed like a winning combination. Then this happened.
No idea what they did wrong. People say games but even the competition had issues in the beginning and they managed to do fine.
Always sad to see those Dreamcast numbers... :-(
- PS2 sold 50K in it's 13th year for a total of 46.34 million
- X360 sold 20K in it's 13th year for a total of 43.22 million
It was basically a shadow drop. No hype, basically no commercial, I didn't expect anything else tbh.Immortals of Aveum is #26 top selling game in August, per Grubb.
That's really bad for a brand new EA game. No wonder they laid off half the staff, the game has bombed incredibly hard.
I didnt really pay attention to that chart until this post....and started looking at PS4 and PS5 numbers in comparison to XBO. Sheiiit.Xbox selling less than Xbox One over the first three years is shocking. Its a huge fuck up considering the fact that the XBox One iteself was a huge fuck up.
I can understand the first two years. Covid, shortages, but to trail the xbox one in the third year? WTF. How does one keep his job after his predecessor lost his job over the xbox one fuck up?
Especially after releasing a console $200 cheaper than the xbox one. Honestly, this year is going to be a bloodbath unless starfield manages to turn things around.
Is the ps5 on sale in the US like it is in the uk too? Its beasting.

Xbox One in its first three years was not a huge fuck up in the US. It sold pretty well.Xbox selling less than Xbox One over the first three years is shocking. Its a huge fuck up considering the fact that the XBox One iteself was a huge fuck up.

Love to see both AC6 (my current GOTY frontrunner) and Remnant 2 (my current number 3 of 2023) high up there. If you love gaming then buy games, end of story. Oh and just wait for those PlayStation numbers in October
Sony's target for 25 million in the year, look more and more out of reach.
Let see how good Spiderman-2 performs.
The target is fiscal year, so those Jan-March 2023 growth figures are the ones Sony has to compete against this year.YTD US+JAP+UK (Jan-Aug)

Xbox One started out with decent exclusives. Series just had its first decent one. Despite shortages, people who couldn't get one could see what was going on.Xbox selling less than Xbox One over the first three years is shocking.

Worldwide it was IIRC - but even that's fallen behind now.I thought at one point the Xbox Series was outselling the XBO.
Yup Xbox one early on was great I didn't have any buyers remorse but my Series X purchase felt like a waste of money I could've kept my one x for the better part of this generation but got caught up in the power hypeXbox One started out with decent exclusives. Series just had its first decent one. Despite shortages, people who couldn't get one could see what was going on.
But for how long? Without a major release I can see sales completely plummeting off a cliff in every region by March/April.Japan is carrying Switch at the moment.
