Lifetime-to-date and year-to-date hardware figures for the PS3, Wii, Xbox 360, and DS based on the most recent NPD sales data have been revealed.
The new Nintendo-focused emulator for the iPhone is now available with support for several classic systems.
Won't belong before Nintendo bangs on Apple's door to have the emu removed. Like I say you take down one six more take it's place. Problem is people are putting emu's on such stupid platforms. The good emus are the ones not on stupid platforms like a red target. The good emu's are word of mouth and keep a low profile.
Plenty of unforgettable games have completely messed up their players throughout the years, all the way back from the PS1 days to the dark recesses of the modern internet.
With so many games fighting for players' attention and interest losing out over time, time sink games are at risk of eventually losing steam.
It was worrisome to begin with.
It's a niche genre with only a handful of hits that can stand the test of time.
Only a few will catch on. You need a perfect storm to be successful in GaaS and a bit of luck on top of that. But a potential cash cow will keep them trying and some will go out of business because of it.
Helldivers 2 manages just fine…
Keep production costs low… don’t just make custscenes until the mechanics and enemies are perfected first.
Make so much content that you can drip extra content for years, and the game already feels complete without them.
Most importantly: make weapons, enemies, levels, and mechanics that will stand the test of 1000 hours. This might require more devs embracing procedurally generated leveled, which I think separates Helldivers 2 from Destiny’s repetitiveness.
All systems still chugging along pretty good. DS is still a beast.
Wow 360 beating the Wii, how things have changed.
And why no PSP numbers? Im sure the gap between the PSP and DS would be ridiculous.
@Cevapi88
The Wii has been dominating since forever the fact that the 360 is beating it now even though its the older console is a big deal, because its the beginning of the 360 closing the gap on the Wii.
Didn't NPD say the were gonna stop reporting numbers?
DS looks pretty strong. I'm planning on getting a 3DS when it comes to the west and sell my DSiXL. Good job PS3 for taking over the 360's spot, hehe.
[EDIT] Talking about year to date btw.
Where Has PS3 Taken Over 360, Xbox 360 Is Ahead By A Big Margin On Those Figures
