So even with huge supply issues, Switch outsells Xbox one every month it has been out.

I'm not sure how "big" being down 28 percent is, but being up over 60 percent is gotta be super huge.

Well, it clearly had supply issues but not a huge one since 216k was out there in that one month.

supply issues has nothing to do with how much it sold, its about the relation between supply and demand.

For example, if 220k people tried to get a Switch in June than that means 98% of them were able to find one. Not really much of a supply issue.

However, if 400k people tried to get one in June than that means just over half of them were able to find one. Thats a pretty significant supply issue.

Good ass year for fighting games.



So our earlier predictions were not that far off compared to the real numbers.

Only a few major differences.

Jan- Spot on
Feb- ~5k XB1
March- ~10k PS4, ~7k XB1
April- ~7k PS4, ~17k XB1

Also of note, with the new leaked charts and Aquamarine charts we have pretty much exact data for PS4, XB1, Switch. So at least with US and Japan we know everything.



PS4 and Crash Bandicoot with an N.Sane month (with the later one only counting 2 days and having supply issues)!!!

Tekken 7 did better than expected too imo!



and some said last year was the PS4s peak year......



Playstation domination continuation.

At the time it seemed likely. Globally, 2016 was up less than 1% over 2015 (17.5m vs 17.4m) according to Sony's official sell through announcements.

Usually when a console has a stagnant year, the following year/years show a decline.

Good for Sony though for proving us wrong

Oh wow, June was an amazing month for the PS4.

PS4 is doing nsane! :O

I knew someone would do this pun :p



Switch did better in June as I expected. That's certainly due to a bit more stock for Arms' launch week. July will be interesting to see how high it can go (more like, how many they can produce/ship).



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Ps4 continued to receive quality ip, non stop games, similar to those ps2 constant releases back in the day....

Shocking considering Nintendo dropped an almost Wii like phenomenon with switch, the ps4 continues to dominate the market in every region..... once that 199 comes in it's going to rocket to 100 million!
