You don't get the joke, do you? It's the same like when Vita surpassed 3DS in Japan, altough that one is funnier.


What joke? The Vita surpassed 3ds in Japan due to God Eater's release... Not a supply issue.

I've seen quite few times people joking about Vita surpassing 3DS sales and how it actually means something. Which it doesn't and its the same case here.

And as Green_sky pointed out, why can't you get ours? These ones are even milder.

So does VGC track digital sales yet? Sorry I really don't know because I haven't paid any attention to this stuff in a while. Anyway, if not then it kind of blows as a lot more Xbone owners want to go digital because of the cool features that the Bone offers, with the fast, seamless switching between games. This will only continue to be a trend as word gets out that the voice controls and Kinect are working well for most users willing to learn it properly.

If it's strictly physical copies then what? Do we only get accurate digital numbers from MS? NPD?


?? Proof?? Sony had day 1 digital way before MS. Sorry, but pure speculation you have no way of knowing or proving.

Cool story about Sony's day one digital but what does that have to do with more Xbox One owners going digital because of the ability to switch between games via voice on the One?  As far as proof, what do want me to prove? Is it too much of a stretch to imagine that more people would choose to utilize the ability to switch between games just by telling their Xbox to do so? Or that more people will choose this route in the future? If you think that that's not happening then I don't know what to tell you.

Now, do you have any answers to my questions regarding the tracking of digital sales? 



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

And that PS4 number is far, far lower than I expected.

No, it was absolutely expected because Sony was forcing shops to say they don't have ps4 available to sell all of them for Black Friday. Basically, Sony sacrificed 2nd week PS4 in NA to have the leadership secured on BF against Xbox One.


And how do you know this?

He doesn't.

OT

Dont really know what to make of this yet.  Anyone m,aking definitive statements about it are guessing.

The sales by Dec 31st will tell us more. At the moment (despite the one sided reporting of "yield issues") I am thinking both will have significant supply issues.

Of course i don't know, like i didn't know the average metacritic notes of Xbox One exclusives...., or Xbox One 1st week NA sales...., or PS4 1st week UK sales....But i've been very accurate until now. And i said that because i was reading from Ben and others here that work at Gamestop and other shops, people that are very reliable, that they were ordered to say to consumers that there wasn't ps4 available when it was not true, and the reason for this was told to have plenty of stock in Black Friday.

Those are some really good SM3DW numbers considering it was only the sales on day 1. Xbone had a really nice launch overall too. You guys have to remember that the best launches ever have been PS4/X1/PS2/Wii U in that order. I guess all of the experts who keep saying that console gaming is dead didn't learn their lesson from when they said the 3DS was dead because of smartphones. A healthy game industry is a good thing because that means Microsoft,Sony, and Nintendo are not going anywhere, anytime soon. I'm expecting the 3DS console sales to be ridiculous after Black Friday too after seeing Target in Tampa sell all 50 they had in about 5 minutes.

Why is counting days almost always a problem that I almost exclusively see when Nintendo games release? It's the 22nd+23rd = two days, just like pretty much every other game release (almost) in America.


I was'nt sure if it counted 1 or 2 days, but even if its two those are pretty solid numbers.   It matters because Nintendo games keep selling consistantly over a long period of time, while most games on PS and Xbox get their 2 week burst and then they just fall off the charts.   A 243K start for a mario game is much different then a 143K start for a game like Ryse. (just an example).   I would'nt be shocked one bit if the week ending on the 30th saw sales around 400K considering the marketing, Black Friday, and holiday shopping in general.  



PS4 massive drop expected. Will rise a bit but nothing too noticeable.

3DS doing great as usual as it should be. Wii U hit six figures!

Don't care about Microsoft. :)



Estelle and Adol... best characters ever! XD

Overtracked by 800k hopefully, then you'd be right with your predicition.

Still standing by this yield thing arent you.  lol.

You guys are the most interesting battle I have seen going on this site since E3

It is completely sold out in the US. Expect it to go up again in the US next week and massively up WW due to the EU launch.


If it doesnt I will be forced to assume CBOAT had the wrong console... yield issues!!!

what a dick he/she has turned out to be.

Will you be forced to admit that Sony reserved units this week to have the most stock possible for Black Friday if it becomes true??
