If these numbers are true the gap will be way lower then 1.5m by March.

Interested to see software.

Yeah, a high probability. Looking forward to seeing the software figues as well.

wow look at those WiiU numbers! horrible in europe, pretty bad in NA too. looks like pezus's prediction will come true if things keep going this way.
vita numbers wall fall back to being abysmal soon, maybe a steep price cut would save it

Vita Numbers in NA and Europe are not that bad compared to 3DS, around 25-30% market share. It's Japan making Vita look horrible. I wonder if Sony ditched PSP whether that alone would cause Vita to pick up. PSP selling over 50K in Japan this week is rather good, good money for Sony too so I guess they'll keep PSP on the shelf for a while.

Not sure I can quite believe the PS3 number. PS3 ~ 360+Wii U.

is this normal for the PS3 to be that much higher than 360 at this point of the year?


I think last week PS3 was about 180k higher than the 360 globally....



well, could be adjusted later when MS and Sony give their quarterly reports though

 

is the Wii U sales on schedule for Nintendo, I mean is that number what's expected by Nintendo?

 

Apparently it is normal for the PS3 to do better in the new year than the Xbox, I can only guess this is because MS do massive discounting on the Xbox in the last few weeks of December, so they have massive sales, and then it drops off.

 

I know part of it is in Japan, the sales are higher there for a few weeks after Decemeber 25, but I don't remember the gap between the PS3 and 360 being that much though, maybe I just remember wrong....
