Attack on Titan: The Last Wings of Mankind has already sold through its first shipment
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Attack on Titan: The Last Wings of Mankind sold 94,775 copies in its first week, based on data tracked by Dengeki.
Those strong sales resulted in a 75% sell-through rate (give or take). It also means Spike Chunsoft probably shipped around 130,000 copies of Attack on Titan.
Media Create’s latest data puts Attack on Titan: The Last Wings of Mankind at 42,311 copies sold in its second week. As such, it has probably sold through its entire first shipment.
For a title that didn’t have a lengthy development period and a somewhat meager budget, Spike Chunsoft should be pleased with Attack on Titan’s performance thus far.

According to an MCV report, 3DS sales have reached 2 million in the UK. The 3DS, 3DS XL, and 3DS are all included in that figure. It’s not quite as high as the DS’ total at this point in its lifecycle, though 2 million is nothing to snuff at.
Puzzle & Dragons Z sells through 78% of initial shipment
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Puzzle & Dragons Z is off to a monstrous start in Japan. In its first week, the game sold well over 500,000 copies.
Puzzle & Dragons Z may have moved even more had GungHo Online Entertainment shipped additional product. Analyst David Gibson says that the title sold through 78% percent of its debut shipment – a very high figure.
Famitsu – #1 title was Puzzle & Dragons Z for 3DS which sold 535k but had 78% sell through which suggests extra inventory,company hoping 1m+

November 2013 NPD: Call of Duty: Ghosts Wii U accounts for less than 1% of game’s total sales
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 64 Comments
No one expected the Wii U version of Call of Duty: Ghosts to light the sales charts on fire. Yet it’s still quite disappointing to see that the game sold horribly in the US last month compared to other platforms.
Reliable NPD leaker “creamsugar” has shared information indicating that Call of Duty: Ghosts on Wii U accounted for less than 1% of the game’s total sales. Wii U’s share came in at 0.33% for the month of November, followed by the Xbox One with 6.42%, PlayStation 4 with 7.39%, PlayStation 3 with 30.42%, and Xbox 360 with 55.45%.
Again, Ghosts wasn’t expected to be a major sales success on Wii U. But given its apparent poor sales, you have to wonder if Activision will even bother bringing out next year’s Call of Duty for Nintendo’s console.

Wii U sales estimated at 4.3 million units, Nintendo would need to sell over a million consoles each month to reach goal
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 14 Comments
Several months ago, Nintendo announced its goal to sell 9 million Wii U units by the end of the 2014 fiscal year ending March 31. That’s always seemed like a lofty target given the system’s poor sales since launch, but it would now seem more difficult than ever to achieve.
IGN estimates that Wii U sales stand at about 4.3 million units worldwide to date. In order to hit 9 million, Nintendo would need to sell between 1.1 and 1.2 million consoles starting this month up through March.
EEDAR VP of Insights Jesse Divnich spoke with IGN about the Wii U sales – specifically competition from other new consoles, and how Nintendo’s own games may improve the system’s fortunes slightly. Divnich also said another price drop will likely take place again “once conditions are right”.
