That's why I said still too many, but at least it's in the lower half of sales. Not the hit it used to be.

You need to appreciate how freaking hard it is to sell 260k SW units to 332k HW units.
That's a freaking 78% attach rate!!!! :O :O :O

Damn fine #'s for Call of Duty. This is the game that gave me hope for the 360. Well done consumers. Well done.

I want to know how dragon quest did...does it really have a market here?!?
It think you're being a bit too hard on GC & GBA, given both platforms have almost nothing in terms of new development and future prospects going. The fact they're even somewhat keeping pace is amazing in itself. How is GBA holding compared to PSone's second Christmas after it's successor platform hit (2001)? Was PSone still outselling PS2, GC and Xbox at that point?sonycowboy said:

I think Nintendo is happy
I think they probably are too, but the software sales might not be as great for them. I'll be curious to see how PSP/DS software sales match up, considering the HW is so close

Aww man, if these were only 10K higher I would have been spot on. The 360 software numbers are interesting too, those Call of Duty sales are really awesome, looks like it'll be a comfortable number one for the system. I think the awesome 360 software sales in generally threw everyone off. And SC is right, excuses like people bought games without a system or bundling fiascos are off, not with a tie-ratio of a massive 4:1. I predicted $40M in software for the system but which made up 35 of the $60M I was off by. I'm guessing GBA software sales may also have been surprisingly strong.

The PSOne outsold the Xbox & GC until then end of 2002. The PS2 killed it in 2001 with some monster sales, but the PSOne also did phenomenally well the that year.

Nintendo is dominating the US and Japan this holiday season. Holy snap it's true.

[Mr.Bob]Another dissapointing month for Nintendo. PSP domination is inevitable. Those Nintendo numbers are inflated because Nintendo gave away systems to needy children.[/Mr.Bob]

$99 is crack cocaine for portables in North America.
Always has been, always will be.
Soccer moms and holiday shoppers aren't as keen on anything more than that price for a game portable here in North America, so DS/PSP have to sell to more of an informed/hardcore audience ... which is a more limited audience.

Wow, look at those PSP numbers at twice the cost! Basically the same as the DS!
Wow, look at those DS numbers with half the graphical power! Basically the same as the PSP!
It's a pointless argument. You just have to go on the numbers, you can argue it either way just as well.

:lol Holy shit at Sony's PSP estimates.
They're not even going to come close.
The DS in North America is really just icing on the cake. Releasing DS was worth it for Nintendo just to kill the PSP in Japan.
Even if Nintendo never released the DS in North America, the GBA still would've destroyed the PSP.

Frankfurter was closest on hardware. Congratulations!
Yes ^^
After I saw the numbers I thought that I would be really far off, but that looks quite solid
What were it's November 2001 numbers? And what were the the Nov numbers the previous four years?sonycowboy said:
The basic problem with your GC/GBA evalutions is you're giving no room for the concept of natural decline, which is what these platforms should be doing at this point... especially compared to PS2 which is still the development darling, still getting the highest profile releases. The fact that GC and especially GBA are holding up as well as they are with the kind of support they're getting is anything but "dissapointing" really.
Wow, Nintendo am happy, DS outsells PSP in NA yet another month, still sold more in Europe although due to Sony's delay and shortages they had the advantage, and is on it's way to out-sell the PSP by 2:1 in Japan by sometime early next year unless we see a change in the current sales trend.
