DS 'fastest-selling platform in Europe'

Sephiroth_zer0 disse:
olha que mesmo assim não sei, se formos ver noutros lados a DS esmaga totalmente a concorrência, e tens muitos sites a mostrar números de vendas no Japão, ou seja o principal mercado, onde DS domina tudo, tendo no top 10 de jogos vendidos em 2006 9 jogos :P abusa muito, cá em Portugal numa pesquisa rápida pelo google não encontrei nada de esclarecedor, mas deve haver, e só procurar.

..mas suponho que tenha que ser um cliente (pagante) desta empresa para ter acesso aos dados..é pena.

Mas desconfio que a PSP venda mais sim, a marca "PlayStation" tem um peso muito grande em portugal..se bem que tenho a impressão que os espaços para os jogos da DS nas lojas que costumo visitar estão a aumentar..não sei.
 
Nintendo Reports Record Profits
Things are looking good for the house that Mario built.
by Micah Seff

January 25, 2007 - Today, Nintendo release its Q3 earnings report, and as expected, the company is kicking major amounts of ass. Due to the massive sales of the Nintendo DS hardware and software, as well as the strong launch showing for the Wii, Nintendo has reported record consolidated sales and profits for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006. Recurring and net profits also reached record highs in the same period. Nintendo reiterated its expectation to attain record financial results through the remainder of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2007.

Largely due to the unprecedented sensation that is the Nintendo DS and the surprisingly successful launch of the Wii, Nintendo reported that its consolidated net sales had increased 72.8 percent over the same period last fiscal year. Furthermore, operating income saw a rise of 102.5 percent.

Of course, the self-congratulatory party didn't end there. Nintendo also announced that during the first three quarters of the year, worldwide shipments of 19 software titles on Nintendo platforms reached or exceeded 1 million units each. These games included three Wii titles (Twilight Princess, Wii Sports, and Wii Play), thirteen Nintendo DS titles and three Game Boy Advance games. In addition, Nintendo was eager to report that almost 1.4 million Wii systems have connected to the Internet worldwide. Furthermore, more than 3.5 million unique users have played online matches on the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for the DS. We hope that those numbers tell Nintendo something about the viability of online gaming.

The company ended the report by reiterating its previous forecasts for consolidated worldwide shipments of 6 million Wii consoles by the end of March 2007. Nintendo was happy to report that it met its target of 4 million Wii consoles manufactured by the end of 2006, 3.19 million of which were delivered to distributors and retail customers around the world.

It seems like all is well in the Mushroom Kingdom; profits are most definitely not in another castle.

Saudações, já que este é o meu primeiro post neste fórum.

São excelentes notícias que vêm confirmar aquilo que já sabemos há vários anos: nas portáteis, a Nintendo continua a deter a melhor mestria. O salto qualitativo do GBA para a Ds foi excelente e permitiu à Nintendo retirar as devidas ilações para a Wii - uma maior interactividade para atrair um público maior. Nada que surpreenda, vindo de quem vem. A DS garante assim um futuro luminoso até à próxima década.
 
realmente a DS tem sido suprema, em todo o mundo, foi sem piedade LOL e os jogos dela também vendem que se fartam, a nintendo quando aposto na DS estava iluminada LOL
 
As cores disponiveis para a LITE actualmente são, branco, preto, rosa e azul claro.
Tenho 1 preta e a unica coisa que tenho a apontar, é....umm...nada!!

Só tenho pena pela Nintendo ter optado por lançar a Wii em branco, não é que fique mal, mas em preto combinava melhor com a decoração do meu quarto, que é maioritariamente escura. E até combinava com a minha Lite. Paciência, o que conta é o que está no interior da máquina. Fiquem bem e portem-se mal.

Para mim branca está bem. Fica em sintonia com a DS, assim com a PSP preta vai estar com a PS3... Axo que pelo menos uma Wii preta vem ai para o verão...

Japan Still Re-importing US DS Lites. (Yes, STILL.)

A while back, Japan's DS craze red lined, and it got so bad that American DSes were re-imported from America to satisfy the demand. Things quieted off, or so we thought. But even recently, consumers still line-up for DS Lites, and stores, it seems, are too! Writes Kotakuite Scott from Nagasaki:

US_DSLite_2_.jpg

I was just shopping at my local Yuuing (it's like Tsutaya, books, DVDs, CDs, and games) where they haven't had DS Lites for months now. When they do expect a shipment, maybe once a month or so, they place up posters to let customers know when the sales go down. But, when I went in tonight, they had about 8 units on the shelves. A closer look revealed they are not Japanese versions, but the US and Asia versions (okay, it wasn't a closer look, the big American flags were a give away).

I snapped two photos with my miserable cell phone camera of the poster in the store. You might not be able to read the small text but the general gist is there: American and Asian DS Lites, 19,800 yen (3000 more than the Japanese version), and they cannot be sold back used like most other gaming hardware and software at this store.

Os Japoneses com as DS's sempre esgotadas (e a venderem na ordem das 194,526 na ultima semana de vendas conhecida), decidiram colmatar a falha importando mais DS's Americanas; note-se que as DS lite's tiveram shortages na América na época natalícia sendo a consola mais vendida, e estiveram completamente esgotadas nas duas primeiras semanas de Janeiro; ainda assim não tão mau como no Japão onde estas, literalmente, evaporam.
 
A DS domina...a minha primeira consola foi uma NES a desde então nunca mais tive nenhuma consola da Nintendo. Felizmente tomei a opção certa após muita ponderação e comprei a DS Lite. Adoro a consola tanto em termos de design como dos jogos (tenho o MKDS, 42 All Time Classics e Mario 64DS), a duração da bateria é fantástica e o modo online é muito bom (tenho o wifi connector). Realmente a Nintendo consegui ver um pouco mais além com o lançamento da DS e da Wii. As pessoas estavam á espera de algo diferente.

Sales of DS top 3 million in UK

New figures from Chart-Track have revealed that more than 3 million people in the UK now own a Nintendo DS or DS Lite.

According to a statement issued by Nintendo, DS was the best-selling platform during 2006 and "has already established itself as the UK market leading hardware format again so far in 2007".

DS is also winning the battle of the handhelds, according to Chart-Track, securing a 68 per cent share of the UK market during the first three months of this year.

“It’s a great testament to the strength of the DS hardware and software range available that just as Nintendo DS has passed its second birthday here in the UK, it reaches such a landmark sales figure. With many more Touch! Generations games launching in 2007, Nintendo DS and Wii will continue to be the main driving forces behind the expansion of the videogame market this year.” - Nintendo UK boss David Yarnton

Nintendo DS launched in the UK on March 11 2005, with the redesigned DS Lite following on June 23 the following year. The Lite currently carries an RRP of GBP 99 (EUR 145).
