Project Reggie-fy Part 3: I Come Bearing .gif-ts For E3

"Chuck Reggie"

My latest batch (see Part 1 & Part 2 for more) of Nintendo gifs just in time for E3! While this one doesn't have as many as some of my past batches, I still think this one is one of my best. Enjoy!

"The Nintendo Avengers"

"Beware the Fils-A-Mech/What Really Happened to Don Mattrick"

According to the Latest VGChartz Update the Wii U Sold 187k Last Week

Pretty good for the Wii U if you ask me. Here's some charts to put it in perspective (Jan, Feb, Mar, and April US data is from NPD, the rest is from VGChartz):

If VGChartz is right (and based off what we've seen they should be within 30k of being so) the Wii U sold better this week then it did in any one month this year.

Project Reggie-fy: Gifs Featuring Reggie

Last year I made a number of Reggie gifs while getting ready for E3, but I never did post my first batch on my blog. Time to fix that, enjoy!

If you have any reasonable requests, feel free to ask them in the comments and I'll see what I can do.

PS4, X1, Wii, & Wii U First Half Year Sales Comparison

I thought it'd be cool to make a comparison of the PS4's, X1's, Wii's, & Wii U's first half year on the market, so here you go (all data from VGChartz):  

It looks like that unless the PS4 sees a huge boost, the Wii will overtake it in a few weeks. Still doing amazing though, the Wii was just a monster. This chart kinda makes it look like the X1 isn't doing well (selling so slow you can't even read the numbers), but it is actually doing quite well. Can't say the same about the Wii U's first half year though (besides that it was selling so slow you can't even read the numbers). Speaking of the numbers, here they are:

PS4:

Mario Kart 8 Pre-order Data *Updated 5/28/2014* Final US Numbers! Final COMG numbers!

How to Understand the Charts:
Japan: COMG! is a chain of ~16 video game stores in Japan and unlike most stores they publish daily pre-order numbers for games. As a general rule 1 point = 1 pre-order in a COMG! store, what these numbers translate into for launch day sales is really depends on the game, but 1 pre-order at a COMG! usually translates into 1k sales in all of Japan at launch. Though Nintendo games don't always follow this formula and are often <1 point = 1k pre-orders.

As for reading the chart, the top across row tells the game the data under it is for while the first down row tells the number of days before launch that data is for.

US: VGChartz is a website that estimates and tracks video game sales data. The numbers are the amount of pre-orders the game has, what these numbers translate into for launch day sales is really depends on the game and time of year.

As for reading the chart, the top across row tells the game the data under it is for while the first down row tells the number of days before launch that data is for.

April Fools! (+Technology Hobbit Reboot)

16 days late saying it was a joke, but The Technology Hobbit is staying The Technology Hobbit!

April Fools!

Also I'd like to announce that I'm going to try rebooting this place soon. Maybe give it a new look (already changed it some) and without a doubt start posting regularly.

The Technology Hobbit is now The Technology Goat!

I was playing Goat Simulator when I realized my true purpose in life, to make a blog about everything goat/technology related! I hope you enjoy the new focus.

Wii U Sales Improving Year Over Year Part 2

Disclaimer: these charts use my own special VGC/NPD mix, take it as you will.

Wii U Sales Improving Year Over Year

Wii U sales are still lower than they should be, they are up year over year. If this trend keeps up this year should be a lot better sales wise than last year.

Week 1 of 2013 is Jan 6th-12th 2013 while Week 1 of 2014 is Jan 5th-11th 2014.

All data comes from VGC.

Speculation: Deducing Black Friday Console Sales From Infoscout's Report

WARNING: MAJOR AMOUNT OF RANDOM SPECULATION INCOMING. I likely made numerous mistakes, take all you read below as a grain of salt.

Earlier this week Infoscout released a report giving early Black Friday data, this is the just of it:

In my opinion the report makes VGChartz look extremely reliable :P, as it was based off a mere 1,500 console purchases across 102k receipts (to show how small a data pool that is, last year over 2,050,000 home consoles were sold in the US on Black Friday week, though I'm not sure how many were sold on Black Friday itself), but it still does give us an extremely rough guess of what to expect. Especially since we have Sony's 2.1 million PS4's sold report. In it they say 700,000+ of those 2.1 million sales are from the EU, taking that number and comparing it to the 1,165,601 PS4's sold (if VGC is to be believed) before the EU launch allows us to deduce that approx. 230K PS4's were sold last week in NA/SA. Then you can also take away around 25-40K for sales from "Other" NA/SA regions, and you're left with 190-205K PS4's sold in the US last week.

Using that as a base you get these numbers from the Infoscout report for the day of Black Friday:
Xbox One: 385-415K
Xbox 360: 380-410K
PS3: 190-205K
PS4: 190-205K
Wii U: 74-80K
Wii: 10-13K
Total: 1,229,000-1,328,000

Now there's a few things wrong with that list for sure. First of all, the Wii sold 38K last week in the US and even though the list is just one day of sales I highly doubt it sold only 10K. Second of all, this is based off the sales of the PS4 in the US for the entire week, I'm sure the retailers held back most of the stock until Black Friday, but I can't be sure about all of it. But still I believe it gives an extremely rough estimate of sales on Black Friday day. My personal estimate for all of Black Friday week is:
Xbox 360: 650K
Xbox One: 420K
PS3: 350K
Wii U: 215K
PS4: 205K
Wii: 170K
Total: 2,015,000


Remember take all of what I'm saying as a grain of salt, also if you find a mistake feel free to tell me so I can fix it. What are your guesses for last week?

Japanese Wii U Sales Up 1394% After New Bundles Release

After the release of new Wii Party U, Wii Fit, & NSMBU bundles, the sales of the Wii U in Japan went up 1394%, or 2,598 to 38,802. This marks the highest weekly Wii U sales Japan has seen all year, the previous record for 2013 being 22,829 seen in the sales week Mar 25 - Mar 31. With WW Wii U sales having stayed steady at about 60K the past couple weeks, this, and a NSMBU/NSLU bundle having been released in Europe and the US, I wouldn't be surprised if Wii U sales reach 100K+ WW this week, which would be yet another first for the Wii U in 2013. Stay tuned!

Worldwide Wii U Sales Up +94% After Price Drop and Retail Release of The Wind Waker HD

Wii U sales went up last week to a new 2013 high of 83,504, the old record being 65,596 during the week ending March 30th. In comparison back in the 360's first year of life, on the week ending Oct 14th it sold 77,836 worldwide and the week before that 87,637 and lastly the week before that 89,330, meanwhile the PS3 in its first year of life sold 84,796 the week ending Oct 6th (with 86,583 & 73,670 the previous two weeks). So the Wii U is now actually performing up to par with other systems in their first year.

Stay tuned to see what the Wii Party U bundle does in Japan on Oct 30th.

One Week After Price Drop ☆ Wii U Sales in the US Rise Another 37%

In an unexpected turn of events, the US sales of the Wii U rose another 37% to 26,941--a somewhat respectable number and the highest in all of 2013--and bringing the worldwide number for last week to 43,514. This is contrary to the expected fall of Wii U sales based off past sales data, as sales generally drop the week after a major game comes out or a price drop happens.

This personally gives me great hope for the Wii U. Stay tuned for what happens next week with the Wind Waker HD bundle launching in Europe!

Wii U Sales Rise +128% in US Following Price Drop and Release of Wind Waker HD Bundle ☆ The Wonderful 101 sales 15K at US Launch

Following the price drop and release of Wind Waker HD Bundle in the US, Wii U sales have risen from 8,612 the week ending September 14th to 19,617 the week ending September 21st. This is the highest Wii U sales have been in the US since the week ending March 30th when the Wii U sold 20,116 units, and the third highest amount sold in a week for the US in all of 2013. This nearly reaches the 23,799 PS3's sold in the US on the same week of life (Sep. 15th 2007).

Meanwhile the worldwide sales were brought up from from 20,946 (Sep. 14th) to 33,964 (Sep. 21st). Remember though NA is the only region to receive a price drop/bundle at this time--bundles will be dropping in EU on Oct. 4th and Oct. 31st in JP. So just stay tuned another few weeks to fully see what the price drop/bundles do.
-----------------
In other news, The Wonderful 101 sold 15,134 units in its US launch week bringing the total worldwide sales up to around 44-45K.

Wii U Sales Start Slowly Picking Up ☆ Wii U Sales Update 9 ★ Now Even Longer than Before! ☀ Pikmin 3 Reaches 418K

Welcome to the super long Wii U Sales Update 9. For the first time in ages, some good news, Wii U sales are starting to pick up (and slowly fall again of course) thanks to the new games like Pikmin 3. The Wii U has sold around 50K more in the past 10 weeks than it did in the 10 weeks before that, and while it's not much--anything is extremely good at this point. This gives me a bit of hope that by the next Wii U sales update the Wii U will actually be selling at a historically decent rate (60K+ a week) since the Wii U will be receiving a price cut in the US on September 20th and a price cut in Europe on October 4th along with a bundle or two. Not to mention lots of games are starting to come out.

Enjoy the sales update.

Sales Update Overview
Unlike most sales updates, I use multiple sources, and when more reliable sources come out, I replace the old sources. Meaning this is likely the most accurate up-to-date sales list around. 

This weeks changes
First update in which I start tracking PS4 and X1 data, bear with me while I get that section fully set up (feel free to give ideas). Added more data to the eShop section. Changed the European Wii U sales section a little, if people don't like it just tell me and I'll change it back.

Note: sales figures that have some data from VGChartz or other somewhat unreliable places are marked with a *
