Pachter's prediction

Our views for console hardware sales are as follows:

Wii 330,000
PS3 160,000
Xbox 360 115,000
PS2 205,000
PSP 225,000
DS 450,000
GBA 85,000

See, this is why the predictions are closed before the aggregate results are posted. :lol

Well, I just got my console and portable gaming sale figures back from distribution. I head up a Target store where we make about 72K a day and 110K on the weekends. Black Friday, we make 550K in one day and from Black Friday to Jan 2 we make an average of 200k to 320K a day.



With that said, we got our sales figures from the months of Jan 2, 2007 to August 2, 2007.

XBox 360: 423 units sold

Xbox: 25 units sold

Nintendo Wii: 69 units sold (because we never get any)

Playstation 2: 55 units sold

Playstation 3: 9 units sold (2 sold at price change last month)

PSP: 51 units sold (11 units sold at price change last month)

Nintendo DS: 97 units sold

GameBoy Adv: 12 units sold

Classic Atari: 27 units sold (yes, the old Atari woth 2 pixel games). Its sold as a novelty item.



PC Games: 410 units sold

Xbox Games: 44 units sold

Xbox 360 games: 881 units sold

Playstation 2 games: 689 units sold

PSP games (not including movies): 211 units sold

Playstation 3 games: 44 units sold

Gameboy Advance games: 87 units sold

Nintendo DS games: 573 units sold

Nintendo Wii games: 111 units sold





Well, there you go. PS3, isnt doing too hot...even with the price changes.

pretty interesting isn't it.... The guy has said that the numbers here even though they are for one store.. They are a good representation of video game sales for all Target stores in his region (a couple states)


Very interesting isn't it
 
Very interesting seeing the Wii number in relation to the 360. I thought Target was preferred by Nintendo the same way Toys R Us gets alot more of the shipment. Apparently not, in his region at the very least.

The PSP didn't get a price change last month, and 423 360 units compared to 55 PS2 units for the year? Is this the Microsoft HQ branch of Target or something?

Can't wait for a site to pick up the line "Xbox 360 outsells DS 4:1 in first 7 months of the year".

At this point, they have near complete coverage of the NA market with the exception of Wal-Mart, who used to participate until 2002.

LOL

here is what the manager had to say..

Target Manager said:
Kansas City, Missouri.

Also, for the record, our numbers are about identical to our Regional sale figures too. Our region covers from Ohio down to Louisana to Idaho down to New Mexico and everything in the middle.

And I'm trying to see if I can get the regional sales information from him... I'l post it as soon as I get it (if I do)

Then the fellow in charge can feel free to add me to the prediction list

The Canadian numbers came out. We just saw the software rankings, though. Pachter is also disqualified this month due to his prediction coming after the Canadian numbers were released. He even got to see those numbers before doing his prediction, so he would've had an unfair advantage.
That and he seemed to nearly wholesale copy our aggregate totals. :lol Maybe imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. ;)

Funny. Maybe MS does much better in that area, or Nintendo does much worse.
