A blog from Major Nelson announced the Microsoft console's Black Friday success.
Hot on the heels of Nintendo's Black Friday sales bulletin, Major Nelson released the news of an astounding performance by the Xbox 360. Nelson reports that over 960,000 Xbox 360 consoles were sold during Thanksgiving week, with over 800,000 of those 360s being sold on Black Friday, itself.
Alongside the news, Nintendo revealed over half a million copies of Ocarina of Time 3D have been sold.
September was a big month for Nintendo in the US. How big? Nintendo moved nearly 650,000 pieces of hardware. The DS reached the major sales milestone of 50 million units in the US. The 3DS is selling better than ever, having sold 260,000 units last month, a number Nintendo suggests is a 10% increase over August. Perhaps the most shocking number is for the Wii. Without any major title releases or any major marketing push, the Wii sold 240,000 units in September. Click through to see more Nintendo sales figures for last month.
My frothing demand for this game increases.
Sin and Punishment: Star Successor is the sequel to the adrenaline-infused Sin and Punishment, an on-rails import shooter originally. Though originally released on the N64, the was finally able to see the light of day in North American and PAL territories on the Wii's Virtual Console. To put it briefly, the original felt like a cross between StarFox 64 and Galaga, with difficult, but wild, over-the-top bosses thrown into the mix.
