Forums - Sales Discussion - This week´s NPD is the first with all 8th generation systems, are you looking forward to it?

It's always funny to looks at NPD numbers after BF. A lot of threads are created bragging about some sales figures and comparisons based on the VGC data (that can be pretty off on BF/Hollydays) and then, one week later... everything changes...



Bet with jetforcejiminy: PS4 will pass the Wii lifetime numbers.

it's on neogaf..


So not actually anybody who has an iota of a clue as to what the numbers are then. Thats like me saying wii u rumoured to be 100k and somebody commenting on neogaf.

i will hold on till npd and if its low then fair enough.


they come from pachter,  hes just referring to the thread that was made from it

Well if patcher says so then it must be true :)

His numbers have been at least as accurate as VGC numbers. (Interpret that how you want)

Lmao

The Wii U is going to outsell both the PS4 and the One... COMBINED!

Really? I can't remember a year where everything truly changed.

Well, it won't change everything, but sometimes if one console is 150k overtracked and the other is 100k undertracked it's enough to invalidate a lot of threads. If I'm remebering it right, Vita last year was something like 40% undertracked on USA after BF.

Funny thing about this npd figure is it doesn,t really matter.
Why?
Because both are sold out so they sold what they produced.

Rumor has it that MS has better supply.

im actually routing for patchers guess to be accurate that would probably cause the most drama on here
