****New Comparison Chart!!!  BLACK/WHITE vs XY YEAR 2!!!  

(XY has digital sales not accounted for, and US is already known for undertracked by at least 80k)

☆WorldWide SECOND Year☆     1.28mil ~ B/W    vs      0.82mil ~ X/Y      64%

★ US SECOND Year ★                  0.44mil ~ B/W    vs      0.27mil ~ X/Y       62%

◆ Europe SECOND Year ◆          0.28mil ~ B/W     vs      0.27mil ~ X/Y      97%

 ● Japan SECOND Year ●            0.45mil ~ B/W     vs      0.19mil ~ X/Y      42%

Remember, Sales arent a full year. They are from within their respective release years. This means XY has the biggest disavantage (especially outside of Japan)

Some Notes before reading comparisons!

⇒ D/P+B/W on DS meaning much BIGGER Userbase (DS>>>>>>>3DS) srry but true nintendo fans

⇒ XY big disavantage outside of Japan cuz it had much less time to sell!

⇒ XY has Digital sales, but then again its not alot at all so doesn't really mean much (at best a region might have an extra 150k max)

⇒XY has Sold/Shipped/Digital a total of 11.61mil as of Dec 31st. VGC has XY at 9.9mil as of Jan 4th

⇒XY undertracked mostly in Europe + Rest of the World

⇒Famitsu has XY by end of year around 4.2mil (vgc ha it alot less)
