May Sales Archive

well, I was out for a whole week on a nice relaxing cruise.. but damn, it must have been a bad time of year (of which time I had no control over) cause there were no chicks anywhere.. buncha fat people.. if thats your taste (they look REALLY horrible when tanning on the top deck... lol)

Anyway, it was the Explorer of the Seas, the biggest cruise ship out there right now for a family reuninion of 42 people :eek:

But, now back to the 2nd edition of a console sales archive

Anything on North America and console sales?

Anything on North America and console sales?

When I find it I post it.. USA sales are rare

and to Qudohosoh, the console that does well in japan normally dominates, and it has alot to do with what 3rd party games the console will see.

Example, the xbox gets very little from japaneese 3rd parties, while the ps2 has. This is partly due to japaneese ps2 sales, and absolutly horrible xbox sales in japan

Well since xbox is selling good in america. Maybe 3rd parties will release some games only in North America?? Which seems to be the case so far.

Quddus, its mainly out of curiosity.. i like to see how well games/consoles are selling..

I like to see how bad the PS2 is wasting the Xbo... *cough* er, nevermind.

Because Japan is THE biggest Gamming market

and the fact that M$$$$$ is going down as well as a fart in a spacesuit, makes it all the more funnyer.

Closeup
 

Ouch.  Bad week.

Holy crap, look at that dip for the Xbox on those charts.  Ouch.

I\'m interested in seeing the total console sales since they have been released, worldwide, for the three major systems (PS2, GC, and PSX... er... Xbox I guess).  I was looking for it last night, but I couldn\'t find it on a google search.  I\'m not sure what to type in.
