The denial is strong in this one... Even after 2 years into the console war. 


Some people were expecting a bigger gap between the two but it seems that wasn't the case so it seems people overestimated things.


The last lopsided win happened in June with the Batman bundle. The next potential ones are September (MGS5 + Destiny), November (Battlefront + COD), and all 3 months in Q1 2016.

Thank you very much jlmurph2 and Teeqoz. It would be great if such historical data comparisons would reach its way into ops going forward, so we immediately have some refering points. Will be interesting to see how this generation develops (in actual sales) going forward.

@ZugheEX
since you seem to have the data as well, and often post some graphs and comparisons, can you help in achieving this transparency? Because right now it really seems that you focus on data and informations with a positive spin towards a certain manufacturer.

PS3: 214K (08)

360: 234k (07)

Wii: 416k (08)

DS: 529k (08)

PSP: 231k (08)

VGC numbers so I'm not sure


http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=41507

PS3 - 225k
Wii - 555k
DS - 608k
PSP - 222k

We don't have numbers for 2007, so no 360.

Bonus:

PS2 - 155k

Well, its as if VGC is just throwing numbers around.

7K soo damned close! But Amazon still keeps its 100% record!

Do you?

Amazon Best Sellers of 2015-04

#41 - Ps4 Standard

#42 - X1 AC:U

#52 - X1 MC:C

#96 - Ps4 B:AK

Amazon, still undefeated.


You miss the point, people still believe PS4 won, not talking about Amazons accuracy.

Only fools who don't worship at the altar of Amazon.

Who would've thought.

D@mnit! So close but it will only be a matter of time before the X1 overtakes the PS4 is the US.

The Chief is coming... Okay later in the year but its close!

This. 

I was surprised in the NPD predictions thread how many people choose the X1 over the Ps4.

Amazon was right all along, like always.

This month will be Ps4 winning the NPD again according to Amazon at this point of the month.

The Ps4 is topping again the X1:

#11 - Ps4 Destiny Preorder

#35 - Ps4 TLOU Edition

#44 - X1 Forza 6 Preorder

#46 - X1 Gears Edition

#83 - Ps4 Standard

#88 - X1 Madden 16 Edition

#96 - Ps4 Batman AK Edition

P.D. The Wii U and the 3DS are not charted in the Amazon Top 100


Remember when people thought PS4 won April? I remember.

Remember when people thought X1 would destroy PS4 not only in USA but WW? I do

There were months when the majority believed X1 won, and it had lost... including this one. So what is your point? That people make wrong predictions? That some diehard fans will predict with BIAS? That is all know, and not exclusive to Sony.
