Forums - Sales Discussion - Pachter: PS4 half a million ahead of Xbox One in the US during November

ethomaz on 09 December 2013

To put in numbers...

Xbone: 750k
PS4: 1.25m

Can be Pachter right or VGC with 1.05m is right?

http://www.videogamer.com/news/ps4_half_a_million_ahead_of_xbox_one_in_the_us_during_november_says_analyst.html

BTW both have the same number for PS4 (easy because Sony give us sales numbers for November).

UPDATE (OTHERS CONSOLES)

The report forecasts Wii U sales of 150,000, 700,000 Xbox 360 sales and 550,000 PS3 units.

Edit - I already said the Xbone numbers in US are wrong here... overtracked... I don't know why but NPD will be funny again.

I think it'll be more interesting to see if this trend continues, especially since the US is primarily M$ territory, as of Gen 7. I think if Sony markets right they could take away the market that the 360 planted for the One

NPD will be out soon. pachter was wrong many times before. again, we will see this November.

Side note... Xbone is the fastest-selling console in Australia with 57k in three days... PS4 did have demand to beat that but Sony didn't shipped enough.

That put in line with my numbers for PS4 in Australia... 40-50k

I think the trend won't change in a near-term... the PS4 demand is US is yet crazy... so for at least some months it will track below PS4... I think in March 2014 PS4 will have a lead over 1 million in US alone if Sony can matain good supply (the difference right now is not bigger because Sony is failing in supply US).

Do you have a link for that? If that's true then I can maybe see the X1 being overtracked in the US, but at the same time being undertracked in Europe.

EDIT: Found it myself



StarOcean on 09 December 2013

Yeah, the shipping delay is going to hurt Sony. I know a few people who went for X1 just because they didnt want to wait for the new shipment of PS4s



ethomaz on 09 December 2013

BTW I didn't want to put in the title but the Wii U is estimated to have sold 150k in November O.O

The report forecasts Wii U sales of 150,000, 700,000 Xbox 360 sales and 550,000 PS3 units.

I will add in the OP.

You got lucky it was in my lastest closed tabs.

And my head failed... the number is 66k not 57k... 65,917.

NPD can't get here soon enough.

This guy might know something we don't though, as i didn't belive for a moment that Sony sold such a miserable amount of PS4's during Black Friday weekend.
