Amazing Wii numbers. Awesome Fable II numbers and 360 software numbers altogether. Actually fairly decent 360 HW numbers too. :D 360 has just taken over the PS3 YTD.

Wastes hours checking old Famitsu software data, but that's why we love him.
I didn't even notice the PS3 hardware numbers.


Obviously we need more data, but my initial impressions is that as expected, LBP is going to sell to the existing userbase, and that's it.

A MILLI! A MILLI! A MILLI! A MILLI!

Nobody ruins my family vacation but me...and maybe the boy!
Only surprising thing is no Guitar Hero. I wish LBP sold more :(

Also, Dead Space deserves better :(

And I'm glad Wii Music bombed :D
 
Even with that userbase third party developers dont move to the wii front....well lets see how much bleeding can they suffer from next gen titles.

Seems like pretty low numbers for Wii.
Well the Wii only sells because it is the cheapest console and since the 360 pricecut....
I hope you are joking.

Dead Space deserves to be higher. Its a better game than Saints Row. Ah well, guess NPD is kinda like Movie charts, the ones that deserve it aren't always at the top. :D

Fit + Kart + Play = Juggernaut! Freakin CRAZY!

Wii itself = Even crazier!!

Holy cats at Fable 2. Fallout 3 did well too. :D

Also glad to see plastic toys of death (guitar hero, rock band) are not in the top 10!

Five 360 games in the top 10.


X360 is the new PS2.
 
apparently guitar hero world tour sold poorly because of the commercial featuring kobe in his underwear.

i guess the public just hasn't moved on from the rape. their loss.

Wow, damn, I didn't think they'd do it this month. Bad time to be a $400 console, I bet.

ETA: With this economy, I mean.

WOWOWOW!!!!

PS3 low......

LBP low......

Not a good look for Sony this month. >_>

On a brighter note, good job Wii, and Wii fit, and Fable 2 and 360!!!!

Socom Confrontation > LBP :lol :lol :lol

I think the real story here (aside from the regularly enormous Wii numbers) is the apparent bomba-ing of Guitar Hero. Is there some reason their numbers wouldn't make this month?

Dead Space also did a lot more poorly than I was expecting. I kinda thought that maybe both the 360 and PS3 versions would chart.

If Nintendo has the supply, and we use the typical Nov = 2*OCT.. then Holy shit.

1.5Mill Nov for Wii ? :O

360 Would do fine as well.

PS3, well it will be close to half a million at least.
