October NPD


Recommended Posts

While sales on the software front for October look less than fabulous, according to NPD numbers, this is due to a sales decrease of 18 percent, but that?s only 11 percent on a units basis.

Still, Uncharted 2 reigned supreme, topping the chart with 537K units sold and WiiFit Plus came in a respectable second with half the sales generated by the bundled SKU.

Across all platforms, NBA 2K10 took the lot with 575K units sold, outselling last year?s NBA 2K9 by 60 percent.

Music games saw the largest decline with $53 million in sales compared to $137 million last year.

Here?s the full thing:

  1. Uncharted 2 ? PS3 ? 537,000
  2. WiiFit Plus ? Wii ? 441,000
  3. Borderlands ? 360 -418,000
  4. Wii Sports Resort ? Wii ? 314,000
  5. NBA 2K10 ? 360 ? 311,000
  6. Halo 3: ODST ? 360 ? 271,000
  7. NBA 2K10 ? PS3 ? 213,000
  8. Forza MotorSport ? 360 ? 175,000
  9. Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days ? DS ? 169,000
  10. FIFA 10- 360 ? 156,000

I loved Uncharted, an got Uncharted 2 right away. But I have to say I was a little disappointed, not enough puzzel solving (in fact the puzzles where easy). Graphically great, acting great, story great but it just seemed a polished version of Uncharted. After I finished I traded it in, MP wasn't that fantastic and I'm not a trophy ######...

Wish I waited and got it cheaper....

Sony announced that it crossed the million mark.

Which doesn't seem as impressive now post-MW2 launch.

MW2=multiconsole

MW2=most people want it

Uncharted 2= PS3 exclusive

That's pretty conclusive...It's a shame though that it never reached number 1 in the charts.

It is when you take into account that MW2 hit 3 platforms and imo had more hype then Halo 3 and Harry Potter 7 combined.

Even if you singled out either 360 or PS3 sales of MW2, it'd still probably surpass Uncharted 2.

While those numbers still do seem weak compared to a blockbuster like MW2, 32.2 Million dollars made (that is just with the number of 537,000 copies sold above) is a nice amount, but I just feel it is a shame the numbers are this low strictly because I think the game is that good and should be experienced by as many people as possible.
