MontanaHatchet says: I wouldn't take too much from this chart right now. There's something seriously messed up with the code. Hopefully ioi will fix it shortly. Posted on: 10/07/08, 00:38
Veggie says: de Blob and Wario do better in their second week, that's good. Less Fifa for the Wii than I thought though. Posted on: 10/07/08, 00:45
Blood_Tears says: Great PS360 Sales! Posted on: 10/07/08, 00:50
Yakuzaice says: I'm really surprised at the small drops for Quest for Booty. I guess not many people jumped on the PSN version. The low price compared to other retail games is helping as well I'd guess. Posted on: 10/07/08, 00:51

kutasek says: Fifa wii bombed, but it seems STW:FU doing great. Ps3 doing pretty good. Brother in arms really has good second week. Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:00
pbroy says: Nice to see Europe showing respect to Brothers in Arms. Hopefully American numbers trend the same. Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:03
Yakuzaice says: Wait, WTF. The PS2 Force Unleashed numbers must be wrong. Went from 58k to 4k? Yeah right. Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:06
Maynard_Tool says: Damn, i guess wii is not the sports plataform, still better than nothing (remembering the Game cube days). Does someone knows what the numbers for FIFA 08 first week (wii) were??? To compare.
What really surprises me is galaxy :O thats a good thing. Wii fit, mario kart, wii play, smash bros and galaxy all doing great. Go Brawl!!!!
Actually the guys on the Insomniac podcast said the initial sales were very good. (The podcast was released a week after the game, they haven't said anything further since then though). Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:09
Yakuzaice says: @Maynard_Tool
FIFA 08 (Wii) did 33k first week. Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:16
Zucas says: Well I thought FIFA 09 on wii would be able to improve over the other addition but came in at about the same. While surprising the 360 version was able to improve over last year along with PS3. Interesting. But seems that those PS2 owners that previously bought FIFA games have switched on over.
Lots of good software including Wario Land, de Blob, and Sambo de Amigo doing much better in the second weeks. Both BIA games hold well while the 3 main SW games are all about the same. Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:17
aavidbacon says: Fifa 08 sold 150k first week in ps3 and in the x360 the same. Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:29

Hope it will have great legs in christmas. Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:32
WiiStation360 says: Wow. Huge FIFA sales. Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:38
konnichiwa says: Software sales of the PS3 are getting better and better. You also see this in total million sellers. At the beginning of this year it had only 5 million sellers and now 16. Great to see that it is going better. Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:44
WiiStation360 says: FIFA 09 has the 9th best opening week for a PS3 game. Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:47
Goddbless says: I wonder if the low price of the 360 is stealing some of the PS2 users! Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:51
eliasg says: HALO 3 in the top 50. Interesting!!! Posted on: 10/07/08, 01:54
Well yes i should think it might take a few ps2 users but saying that if yo ulook hard enough you can get 70pound ps2's so.
Anyway just as a thought the 360 was selling for the same price as the ps2 in game.
they were both selling for 100pounds brand new.

Retrasado says: @eliasg
77000 new 360 owners say hi. tbh, it's not that bad of a game, especially if you're into online multiplayer and you don't want to play CoD4... Posted on: 10/07/08, 02:21
Beja-Beja says: PS3 won FIFA WEEK and will inherit the PS2 software sales down the road. Posted on: 10/07/08, 02:23
i am waiting my copy of fifa 2009 to come =) Posted on: 10/07/08, 02:24
Beja-Beja says: Wow at Ratchet hold up! PES will be even bigger for the PS3. Glad Samba and Wario had better second weeks. OUCH for GTAIV and MGS4 both almost out of the 10k range. And a triumphant applause for Uncharted the game has great legs and is another key franchise for the PS3.
SWTFU still has good sales as does Brothers in Arms. Posted on: 10/07/08, 02:29
mrstickball says: Amazing that both the X360 and PS3 version saw 2x the sales versus last year's iterations (160k for PS3 and 150k for X360). Very nice that Fifa is starting to do well in Europe. Posted on: 10/07/08, 02:35
Beja-Beja says: ^^^^ What do you mean starting? its basically the European Madden Posted on: 10/07/08, 02:41

Beja-Beja says: I would never had expected Wii total software to be this close to DS so early in the lifespan. Posted on: 10/07/08, 03:05
Fifa PS3 opens up really good. Above all other versions despite having the lowest cumulative hardware sales out of all the systems it came out on. Osome.
Uncharted is holding steady at sales now that it's a platinum hit, and Ratchet: Quest for Booty doing really well being a 4 hour Blu-Ray game.
Wii/DS/and 360 all do very well hardware numbers, but 360 is dropping at a steady clip, back to below PS3 in a week or two after the price cut effect effectively wears off...
Yakuzaice says: @Beja-Beja
Well the DS has widened its software lead since the Wii's launch. Plus it probably has more games with missing information.
But it has been outstripping the DS in software this year. Posted on: 10/07/08, 03:47
zexen_lowe says: Wow, I thought the PS3 and 360 versions of FIFA09, had a fair chance to outsell the PS2 version but not to outsell it 3 to 1, specially given how strong last year's PS2 version was Posted on: 10/07/08, 04:47
@darkjonnyx, that is actually quite surprising that the wii is ahead Posted on: 10/07/08, 05:36
trestres says: So much for Samba de Amigo, Wario Land and deBlob bombing. Legs!
Good week for the Wii, SW:TFU is basically tied in weekly sales among the current gen consoles. BiA:Double Time seems to havbe flopped miserably, very good news!
FIFA 09 will show its legs, just like 08 did. Posted on: 10/07/08, 05:43
thelalaby says: I actually expected more from Fifa, especially on PS3 but these numbers aren't exactly bad... Posted on: 10/07/08, 05:59
fabinou says: Dragon Quest 4 ? No ? that game is sold since.... 3 weeks ?? Hey, Vgchartz, what are you doing ? Posted on: 10/07/08, 06:09
NightDragon83 says: Still can't get over Mario Kart Wii's weekly sales... I don't think anyone could've ever predicted that 6 months after its release it would continue to sell on pace with actual Wii hardware sales. Posted on: 10/07/08, 06:28
XanderZane says: XBox 360 still doing very good in Others now. Should get a nice boost in November as the holidays start to approach. PS3 got a small boost do to FIFA most likely. We'll see if these numbers stay the same for the next couple of weeks. Posted on: 10/07/08, 06:52
hentai_11 says: XBox360 + PS3 > Wii (The difference is 1083 units)
Could be the reason for the marketshare drop from 47.2 to 47.1. Now it will take a while longer until the Wii reaches 50% marketshare. Posted on: 10/07/08, 07:55
ZuZayLi says: fabinou, unfortunately, there's not only DQ IV but a lot of DS games which are not listed here. Just some SEGA, UBi and Nintendo games. It's why DS Software is really low on the list.
It's not possible that every week, 200k DS are been sold with only 400-500k software. VGC didn't count by example games like DQ IV, FF IV, DQ Monsters and a lot of other DS games made by third parties. Posted on: 10/07/08, 08:34
Oyvoyvoyv says: No hentai, that cannot be the reason for the drop.
Wii has 49% Market Share this week.
Therefore, it has to have been slightly overtracked (or PS360 understacked) before this week. Posted on: 10/07/08, 08:52
The Fury says: 2 days of sales for FIFA09 and i think UK would have bumbed 360 figures closer to PS3. But good all round, 360 on the decrease, PS3 the same.
Wii just wins....well consoles, FIFA09 for Wii is just poor, even below PSP Posted on: 10/07/08, 08:57
hentai_11 says: Oyvoyvoyv, thanks for the clarification. I was to lazy to calculate the exact marketshare. Posted on: 10/07/08, 09:20
Ail says: Multiplatform sport games keep doing poorly on the Wii..
The 360 got adjusted up about 40-50k units Posted on: 10/07/08, 10:45
DMeisterJ says: My god, Fifa PSP outsold Fifa Wii.
Fifa PS3 outsold Fifa Wii by more than a 10:1 ratio. Crazy. Posted on: 10/07/08, 12:27
Leni says: let's wait and see if FIFA wii has the long legs of PES 2008! Posted on: 10/07/08, 12:40
Kingsora_be says: PSP is stil selling 65k??? What the hell is wrong with the world? Why would you buy the PSP now, if you know that you can buy a new version within 2 weeks...
Not surprising that the 360 sold better than the PS3. In Belgium it is promoted a lot for 150 euros (probably because Belgium is still SOny territory, oh well ^^) Posted on: 10/07/08, 13:00
Tbone says: Fifa has great debut on ps3 and 360, ps2 ok didnt do so well on Wii.
Brothers in Arms has good second week also Star wars has good 3.d week.
Ratchet quest for booty also does well guess its good price has something to do with it.
How come Gta4 on 360 dosent sell better with higher 360 hardware. Posted on: 10/07/08, 14:16
hunter_alien says: PSP FIFA > Wii FIFA... not that it was unexpected... basicly the only games EU gamers buy for their PSP are sports games... Posted on: 10/07/08, 15:31

Arkk says: Big week all around. Good holds or better second weeks for a few games, including: BIA, Warioland, De Blob, Samba, Sonic Chronicles and a few others. Granted some of these releases didn't have stellàr opening weeks, but this is still encouraging for the legs of these games. Posted on: 10/07/08, 16:44

sorento says: fifa 09 wii do best thant fifa 08 wii (on selling and rating) but is not great.
On wii PES is still better than fifa (i have somme grat hope for pes 09 wii)
and wii gamer dosn't want downgrade of 360/ps3 game, they want a good wii game
they prefere bying wii exclusive games like wario, samba or de blob
my apologies of my english i'm french Posted on: 10/07/08, 23:44
CONMAN15 says: de blob, wario , and samba all show awesome legs. I really hope de blob holds up. Already at 40K WW, maybe it could reach 200-300K Posted on: 10/08/08, 00:04
milanez says: Maybe Konami is hopping some fifa buyers will get tired with it, and they will pick up PES..or they are just afraid to go head to head..after playing the demo, the game seems still stuck in last gen, but as long as the masses keep getting it, doubt that will change anytime soon Posted on: 10/08/08, 17:17

Tyrannical says: I think those Wii FIFA 09 sales tells you something about the Wii's demographics.
So, at what age do European kids start following football over there? Posted on: 10/09/08, 05:57
The Fury says: @Tyrannical
When they know what it is and depending on the parent. We play from age of 5 or 6 at school.
Obsessive fan parent means kid will get interested sooner. My brother and me didn't have a football liking dad and pciked it up later in life, played ISS on the Snes though, that was fantastic. Posted on: 10/09/08, 12:14
360 will increase even further in sales next week and as for Christmas sorry but the fight will be with Nintendo Wii not the PS3 so you will be wrong as usual.
If you don't own a 360 I don't understand why you constantly mention it as what it sells will not affect you or your PS3 in any way?
Good news for LANOD, TEKKEN has now been announced for the 360 YES LANOD TEKKEN and Halo recon.. Posted on: 10/09/08, 12:59
