By June Sony said they shipped 424,464 copies of the God of War: Origins Collection in North America. The chart is from February 2012. So many furries.

Tracking 12k-14k under the GameCube (11 million lifetime NPD) is pretty damn bad. Its momentum doesn't inspire confidence at all for third-parties. It's a negative feedback loop that will paralyze the Wii U from getting any ground in the industry unless Nintendo really shakes it up.

Some Adam's Family Nintendo Family gifs would be lovely thanks.
That seems 'alright' for FE but nothing spectacular.

Not bad, not bad at all.
117k and not charting speaks VERY well for Sly. Shockingly good performance, good for Sanzaru!

The Best-Selling HD Remasters At Retail #1
The list does not include download sales, however. Most HD remasters are now available digitally through PlayStation Network and Xbox Live. Download-only titles like Resident Evil 4 HD and Beyond Good & Evil HD are absent from this list for that reason.
Here is the list ranked by most units sold:
God Of War I & II Collection (Nov. 2009) - 1,748,663
Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary (Nov. 2011)
Metal Gear Solid HD Collection (Nov. 2011)
The Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection (Sept. 2011)
The Sly Collection (Nov. 2010)
God of War: Origins Collection (Sept. 2011)
Tomb Raider Trilogy (Mar. 2011)
Prince Of Persia Trilogy (Apr. 2011)
Tekken Hybrid (Nov. 2011)
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Trilogy (Sept. 2011)
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Halo was close to a million? could be wrong tho
Anyway, there's probably a huge fall between GOW and the other collections, but it's still pretty high up.
How well did PSABR do its first month?
Well that's what happens when they ship like 5 copies of Fire Emblem to stores.
I had to wait until March to find a retail copy.

oh yeah, and their problems are only beginning. Once ps4 and durango hit, it will make now look like a sunny day at the beach.

It's pretty disastrous.
I don't think the PS3 was supply constrained post-launch. It was "demand constrained." And I did consider putting "Supply constraints" and "$599" in the legend.

Don't forget about God of War:A
Next month should be interesting.
Edit: Meant this month
I wasn't forgetting about God of War: Ascension.
I don't think it clears Top 3 with that stacked release lineup.
Happy to be proven wrong. Perhaps Bioshock Infinite will bomba huge.
Does it? I mean it is technically a multiplatform release....
Yeah, I agree - the 63k who purchased a digital copy can't /all/ have been people who were driven/forced to buy a digital copy due to supply constraints at retail. Although I won't be buying any full retail titles on the eShop until Nintendo implements an account system, I'm happy about the digital sales.

im playing through a red box copy i rented three hours ago and no one is playing online and im about 50% done with the campaign from about an hour in
good for sly. nintendo should have had more fire emblems in stores.
i bought dead space 3 and crysis 3. though for $60 total

*sees Sly on chart*
9th place NPD + 7th place PS3N + 2nd place PSVN = FAITH IN HUMANITY (SLIGHTYLY) RESTORED!
...really sucks that Fire Emblem didn't chart though.

Very, VERY happy with Sly 4 sales.
Moderately okay with Wii U sales. Wasn't expecting a huge leap, but happy it's a much bigger number than the poor Jan sales. No games came out for it in Feb. I'm more anticipating the NPD sales on Wii U for March what with all the games being released for it this month. If it doesn't do near or over 100,000 in sales in March, then there's gonna be some REAL trouble for the system.

Vita still dead in the states. Wii U has a weak pulse.

I have a bad feeling that NoA will just leave it as it is. Similar to other localisations, quite bizarre really but I suppose digital reduces the pain. Speaking of which, those are quite significant digital sales. Obvious why, but still strong.

Considering the shortage I think it did pretty good. God know how many sales Nintendo lose due to failling to predict it's demand.

Has its fans, and they purchased it, I did my part, I want to see Sly ps4.
You really wanna call out users with these sales numbers? Really?
I'd say that's still a pretty fucking bad number for them....

im glad it did decent, but i wonder if the free vita version with the ps3 purchase contributed to it?
I have it at 7.84 million by January, so, to cross 8 million, it implies 160k at least.
But with adjustments and what not, my LTD can easily be a few 10k higher or lower.
Europe will save the day!

Is this a proper rise or is this "less returns" rise? The WiiU numbers do confuse me a bit.

Vita is not dead yet, life support though.

Sly doing over a 100k it seem like is good going .
Sony did nothing at all to help it .

Marathon to a million. Go, Go, Go!!!
The word of mouth seems to be there. It's why I downloaded it despite never playing a FE game in my life. Just need copies of the game to be there too.
40% rise is bad ?

I permanently banned my 6 year old daughter from using the PS4 for mistakenly sending grief reports as it's too hard to watch or talk to her
You are seriously gloating over numbers like 64k for a system still in it's first quarter after launch.
Do you honestly not realize just how historically bad these numbers are?
Oh my.... The amusement never ends

Walruses, camels, bears, rabbits, tigers and badgers.
Sorry, 64k is not impressive no matter how many people were low-balling these numbers or how you try to shape these numbers. Nintendo is in dangerous territory without the ability to drop the price and currently no major, console-moving titles planned for release before this fall.

GAF actually overpredicted*! Definately not a majority of 20-40k predictions!
*5k isn't that much really.
