June Retail Sales--$7 million WMS Estimate--$8 million Acclaim?s market share increased sequentially from 1.8% last month to 2.0% as its retail sales increased from $5 million to $7 million (compared with $13 million last June). Acclaim?s sales were led by All-Star Baseball 2004, which sold 30,000 units across all platforms. Acclaim?s June releases sold poorly, with Summer Heat Beach Volleyball leading the pack with 5,000 units sold. Catalog sales of ATV Quad Power Racing, Burnout, Mary Kate & Ashley, Legends of Wrestling, and Turok continue to generate incremental Activision (ATVI?Buy)??Buy) Releases during June: 6/3 Wakeboarding Unleashed (PS2, Xbox), 6/17 Soldier of Fortune 2: Double Helix (Xbox), 6/24 Star Trek Elite Force 2 (PC). June Retail Sales--$20 million WMS Estimate--$25 million Activision?s market share decreased sequentially from 6.9% last month to 5.8%, while its retail sales were flat at $20 million (compared with $27 million last June). We note that Activision has a difficult comparison to last June, when the immensely successful Spider-Man: The Movie was in its third month of release on several platforms, and was a beneficiary of increased hardware demand following the console price cuts. Return to Castle Wolfenstein sold fewer units than we expected in its second month of release with 89,000 units sold (PS2, Xbox). Also selling fewer units than we expected was Soldier of Fortune 2: Double Helix (Xbox), which sold only 44,000 units compared to our estimate of 100,000 units. Wakeboarding Unleashed also had a light first month with only 25,000 units sold combined (PS2, Xbox). Catalog sales were driven by other Tony Hawk titles, Spider-Man, ab>Electronic Arts (ERTS?Bu(ERTS?Buy) Releases during June: 6/23 F1 Career Challenge (PS2, PC). June Retail Sales--$40 million WMS Estimate--$45 million Electronic Arts? sales were lower than our forecast, and compared to $71 million in sales last June. The company?s market share decreased sequentially from 15.1% last month to 11.8%, while its retail sales decreased from $45 million to $40 million. EA also has a difficult comparison to last June, when the immensely successful Medal of Honor Frontline (PS2) sold almost 700,000 units and represented 48% of its dollar sales. The company?s best-selling title this month was NBA Street Vol. 2 with 212,000 units (PS2, Xbox, GC) sold. MVP Baseball 2003 (PS2, Xbox) sold 53,000 units across all platforms. Madden, Def Jam Vendetta, Tiger Woods Golf, NBA Live, Harry Potter, James Bond 007, and Lord of the Rings also sold very well. The company?s sales were broad-based, with 38 titles selling more than 10,000 units. We continue to believe that Electronic Arts will generate sales well in excess of last year?s levels and expect it to maintainb>Midway Games (MWY?Bub>Midway Games (MWY?Buy) Releases during June: 6/23 Freestyle Metal X (PS2). June Retail Sales--$6 million WMS Estimate--$5 million Midway?s market share increased sequentially from 1.5% last month to 1.6%, while retail sales increased from $5 million to $6 million (compared with $9 million last June). Midway?s overall sales were in line with what we expected. The company?s best-selling title was MLB Slugfest 20-04, which sold 46,000 units across all platforms. We note that Midway?s retail U.S. sales for the quarter came in at $17 million, implying wholesale sell-through of over $13 million. This figure is above the company?s revenue guidance for the quarter for sell-in, and implies that the company will hit its guidance b>Take-Two Interactive (TTWO?Buy and Focus Lis Interactive (TTWO?Buy and Focus List) Releases during June: 6/3 Midnight Club II (Xbox). June Retail Sales--$17 million WMS Estimate--$17 million Take-Two?s market share increased sequentially from 4.5% last month to 5.0% and retail sales increased from $13 million to $17 million (compared with $22 million last June). Take-Two?s sales were driven by Midnight Club II for the PS2, selling 93,000 units in its third month of release and the Xbox version selling 71,000 units in its first month, somewhat lower than our 100,000 unit forecast. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City continued its record breaking sales record by selling another 65,000 units, bringing cumulative U.S. sales to 5.3 million units. We note that the much-discussed price cuts for Grand Theft Auto: Vice City have apparently been slow to materialize, as the NPD Funworld TRSTS data shows an average retail selling price of $48.55 for the game. The company also showed continued sales strength from its Grand Theft Auto III, Max Payne, b>THQ (THQI?Bunflict: Desert Storm games. THQ (THQI?Buy) Releases during June: 6/12 Tetris Worlds (Xbox), 6/16 Evil Dead: A Fistful of Broomstick (Xbox), 6/16 Big Mutha Truckers (PS2, Xbox, PC), 6/17 Space Channel 5 (GBA), 6/19 LEGO Drome Racers (GBA), 6/23 Simpsons Road Rage (GBA), 6/23 Jet Grind Radio (GBA), 6/24 Buffy the Vampire Slayer (GBA). June Retail Sales--$27 million WMS Estimate--$26 million THQ?s market share increased sequentially from 6.0% to 7.9%, while retail sales increased from $18 million to $27 million (compared with $31 million last June). THQ?s big seller was Finding Nemo, which sold through 256,000 units, in line with our 250,000 unit estimate. THQ again had sales that were broad-based, with 28 titles (11 Game Boy games) selling 10,000 or more units, compared with 21 titles (eight Game Boy games) that sold 10,000 or more units last month. ........
