UK April & May 2010 Top 10s

2010-07-31T18:32:00.005+07:00

There are some serious errors in the May chart, note the missing Lost Planet 2 number, the fact that it doesn't match ELSPA Sales Awards, and it doesn't fit with the week on week percentage changes given by Chart-Track and the 2010 H1 numbers given by ERA (even when taking into account extrapolation).

One possibility is that the numbers have all been shifted up to the next game, and that the title with the missing data is actually Red Dead Redemption (360), not Lost Planet 2. I'm not very confident that's the case though, so May numbers should be considered unreliable.

"Xbox 360 S" Sells around 70,000 UK First Week

2010-07-19T16:38:00.002+07:00

Microsoft’s new and improved, slimmer XBox 360 console, the XBox 360 250GB (or XBox 360 S) achieves the biggest launch in the UK for a “revised” home console, surpassing the launches of both PS2 Slim and PS3 Slim and recording over two days around the same as the original Xbox 360's launch sales total back in week 48 2005.

This is even more impressive when you take into account that the original Xbox 360 was launched across two versions (Pro and Core).

Chart-Track

Chart-Track has told GamesIndustry.biz that UK consumers snapped up an estimated 165,000 PlayStation 3 units in the two days following the console's launch.

That makes PS3 the fastest-selling home console in history, beating the Wii - which shifted 105,000 units during its launch weekend - and Xbox 360, with 70,000 sold.

Territory Report: Greece

2010-07-17T12:51:00.006+07:00

MARKET OVERVIEW

Greece’s games industry remains optimistic. In 2009, local sources estimated the games market value at approximately e129m, of which software made up e50m. After growth in previous years, the total market in 2009 was flat due to lower software sales.

Despite the recession’s effect on consumer spending in terms of software, hardware revenues still grew by over 7.5 per cent year-on-year and hardware values account for over 60 per cent of the overall market.

Hardware sales have always been strong in Greece, particularly for the DS and PS3 – the latter of which saw a 70 per cent increase in sales. The PS2 also has a strong presence, found in over 25 per cent of homes.

In terms of software sales, the Wii is the weakest format available in Greece, partly because casual gaming has been slower to catch on than in other markets. This is partly due the fact that children’s games are rarely localised.

TERRITORY ANALYSIS

After several years of good growth, Greece’s economy is in the grip of a severe financial crisis. The economy shrank by around two per cent in 2009 with a drastic decrease in consumer spending. Tourist receipts were also down substantially and the global downturn affected Greek shipping earnings.

Despite and considering the economic crisis, the games market is not performing as badly as might be expected. Instead, it is probably the weak euro, the strong pound and the resultant cheap grey imports from the UK that are having more of an impact on the market.

In 2009, The software market probably decreased at retail by between five and 15 per cent year-on-year – although when taking into account the substantial grey market product, it probably grew by five cent or more.

With disposable income tight, Platinum/Classic releases and lowerpriced software have taken a higher share of the market. The hardware market has performed better on the back of strong PS3 sales and in 2009 grew by approximately five to 10 per cent year-on-year.

In fact, PS3 dominates the more powerful formats and grew even stronger in 2009, with Xbox 360 and Wii having little market impact.

DS is strongest in the portable market; a sector which is growing. The PC market is shrinking but still has presence and is dominated by the large MMOs, which are more resistant to piracy.

The key challenges remain the difficult economic backdrop, piracy, grey imports from the UK, the need to further grow the casual and social gaming sector, and low software attach ratios on portable formats. In spite of these problems, Greece remains a mature games market with good revenue opportunities on PS3 and PC. It also has an improving retail environment.

Spain Hardware Sales 2010

2010-07-17T11:44:00.005+07:00

Nintendo Spain's Rafael Martinez reveals hardware unit YTD and LTD marketshares from GfK in this interview. As Nintendo previously gave out these marketshares for the end of 2009, along with LTD units it;s possible to calculate this yeas sales from the change in LTD marketshare combined with the 2010 YTD marketshares.

Console Hardware Units 2010:

YTD / LTD: 560,000 / 4,490,000
Wii: 46.9% (263,000) / 50.4% (2,260,000)
PS3: 35.9% (201,000) / 32.4% (1,450,000)
360: 17.2% (96,000) / 17.2% (770,000)

Portable Hardware Units 2010:

YTD / LTD: 360,000 / 7,460,000
NDS: 71.8% (258,000) / 67.8% (5,060,000)
PSP: 28.3% (102,000) / 32.2% (2,400,000)

Total Hardware Units 2010:

YTD / LTD: 920,000 / 11,950,000
WII: 263,000 / 2,260,000
NDS: 258,000 / 5,060,000
PS3: 201,000 / 1,450,000
PSP: 102,000 / 2,400,000
360: 96,000 / 770,000

As we recently had 2010 unit figures for France I thought it interesting to see how the combined sales across the two countries had been during the first half of 2010:

France + Spain Hardware Units 2010:

ALL: 2,255,000 (100%)
NDS: 728,000 (32.3%)
WII: 588,000 (26.1%)
PS3: 493,000 (21.2%)
360: 251,000 (11.1%)
PSP: 195,000 (8.6%)

France / Spain / Total
ALL: 1,335,000 (59.2%) / 920,000 (40.8%) / 2,255,000
NDS: 470,000 (64.6%) / 258,000 (35.4%) / 728,000
WII: 325,000 (55.3%) / 263,000 (44.7%) / 588,000
PS3: 292,000 (59.2%) / 201,000 (40.8%) / 493,000
360: 155,000 (61.8%) / 96,000 (38.2%) / 251,000
PSP: 93,000 (47.7%) / 102,000 (52.3%) / 195,000

European Charts: Week 26, 2010

2010-07-13T03:59:00.008+07:00

Welcome to the new European Charts, which will be updated the second Monday or Tuesday following the close of that week's chart. Basically a one week delay to allow for the inclusion of every chart for that week.

Features:

* Individual format charts for: UK, Germany, France, Italy, Netherlands, and Sweden

* Platform specific charts for: UK, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, Denmark, and Ireland

* All Formats charts for: UK, Denmark, Ireland

* New Entries roundup

Notes:

The Netherlands' charts finish midweek, so as to include the full first seven days of new releases. I've decided to use the chart which ends a few days later than the other countries so that it covers the same new releases (provided that the title had a simultaneous release across Europe).

Finland and Norway charts aren't included as they are based off of shipment numbers supplied by publishers rather than independently tracked sell through figures. Also due to Finland having only fortnightly, and not weekly charts, and Norway only having separate home console, portable console, and PC charts with no combined individual platform or platform specific charts.

German platform specific charts will be completed once I've made a new trial account for the site that publishes the charts.

The size reduction used above causes some formatting errors, the original version is available below.

LSA

I think the LTDs are actually through May 2009, as Wii+PS3+360 = 8.3m, which is the same as reported by this week's MCV through May 2009. Adding the 2010 figures to the LTD reported through 2009 results in these LTDs:

NDS: 8.9m
Wii: 4.4m
PSP: 2.7m
PS3: 2.4m
360: 1.9m

It seems that this 2.5m PS3 figure must be shipped.

From the All Formats Chart:

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 sold a further 70k - 80k in April across the three formats (PC games are excluded from the individual chart, but not the All Formats chart), in addition to the 324,000 it sold across 360 and PS3 in March. That puts total sales well past 400k when March's PC sales are included.

Just Cause 2 sold a further 50k or so in April, after selling over 100k in March (not sure how much over 100k, only that it was less than Just Dance's 190k). The 360 version should now be close to receiving an Elspa Silver Award

Modern Warfare 2 sold a further 50k - 60k in April, after the 100k or so it sold in March. This game must be getting close to passing the UK's all time number one seller "Dr Kawashima Brain Training" (with 3.5m through 2009 compared to Modern Warfare 2's 2.93m, both extraploated to 100% of the market). From this years All Formats charts I estimate that Modern Warfare 2 was at nearly 3.4m (100% extrapolated) through April.

Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing sold around 80k during March.

BlazBlue sells 350,000 in North America

2010-03-05T15:42:00.005+07:00

I don't usually post shipments for individual titles, but will make an exception for the excellent "BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger", which is said by this week's MCV (pg 8) to have sold 350,000 units in North America.

In Japan the sell through is over 85K according to Famitsu, but as there was also an Asian release I'd guess it's shipped somewhere around 100K in the region, bringing total pre-PAL release shipments to somewhere around 450,000. The budget re-release comes out next week, so it has a chance to add a few more sales to that.

The PAL version releases March 19th in the UK, the same week as God of War III (PS3), and the week after Final Fantasy XIII (360, PS3), Samurai Showdown Sen (360), and Yakuza 3 (PS3). With it also launching 9 months after NA and Asia, and just 3 months before the already announced upgraded "BlazBlue: Continuum Shift" releases in Japan I don't think it's possible for UK publisher Zen United to be releasing it at a worse time. Still, they expect it to make the top 3 of the PS3 and Xbox 360 charts in the UK, so we'll see.

Unfortunately these figures don't match up with previously announced figures, for example for 2008 SIEA originally reported 541,880 hardware units sold, but for 2009 they report that the 461,570 units sold is an increase of 2.2% on 2008! The previously reported quarters for 2009 don't add up to the total 2009 sales now reported either. I guess there has been adjustments to the historical data, but will contact SIEA for confirmation.

Germany 2009

2010-02-24T19:31:00.003+07:00

55.4m units of software were sold in Germany last year, only slightly down on the record 55.6m sold in 2008. This compares to 68.4m sold in the UK, Europe's largest market.

Significantly Home console software outsold PC software for the first time, with home console units increasing by 22% to 22.8m whilst PC software declined 9% to 21.6m.

Handheld software sharply declined by 17% to 11.0m.

4.3m units of console hardware were sold during the year, down from the 4.6m sold in 2008. For comparison 6.7m units were sold in the UK during 2009.

In terms of value overall software was down by only 2% to €1.534B, with the console software increase (+15%) not quite making up for the drop in handheld (-24%) and PC (-11%) revenue.

Total software and hardware market value was €2.467B, down 3% on 2008.

2009 UK Software Charts

2010-02-23T22:25:00.009+07:00

I've used a variety of sources including ELSPA Sales Awards, Monthly Top 10s, ERA's 2009 Handbook, and Top Global Markets to add a range of possible sales for each game in the 2009 charts published in MCV571.

These numbers are not extrapolated, Chart-Track cover around 90% of UK retail.

German BIU Sales Awards 2009

2010-02-23T07:15:00.003+07:00

I believe that the BIU sales awards are for games priced over €28 which have passed the following sales milestones during the year. Publishers must apply for them and pay a fee, which means this list doesn't automatically include all games. It seems that EA stopped applying for them during 2009 as FIFA and The Sims aren't listed.
