Lmao there's still doing this crap? Just be happy the XBO did so well this month, no need to combine platforms.

I seen in the PS Nation title several times combining PS4 and PS3.

Congrats to Sony for being number 1 for the 2nd straight month. The gap wasn't as big as I expected but that's what happens when you ship 370k PS4's over to Japan instead of the US and Europe. March is going to be interesting. :)

X1 will sell more in March unless Sony can fix the supply issues.

They need to adjust the figures now before those numbers get too difficult to bury somewhere. Just bring it up to NPD numbers and have done with it. If this carries on they'll be over 200,000 out by next week. It's stupid.

I agree but I highly doubt we'll see a bg adjstment up. I thihk Europe's numbers have been undertracked the past couple of weeks as well but there's no way to tell if thats true or not either.

Kind of puts this weeks numbers into perspective don't it?

Yes. Due to Sony's March 2 6M WW announcement, we know PS4 is as overtracked in Europe as undertracked has been in USA.


They actually said "surpassed 6M" so there is no guarantee of overtracking anywhere.

Nobody waits to announce a milestone, and 100K is almost a week of sales. There's no guarantee of overtracking, but it's likely.

BenVTrigger continues to be correct. Idc about all this ethomaz business, BenV isnt biased and he continues to be right when he says or hints at things for us.


He can be wrong too. He was wrong about the Wii U.

I can't even begin to imagine why XBO had such a massive increase. Strange.

Perhaps an NPD adjustment month. If they mess up in previous months, they post an unusually high or low amount to bring the lifetime numbers in line with reality.

Has that actually happened before?


Yeah, it happened quite a lot at the start of last gen. The xbone increase makes no sense at all... why did thousands of people wait until February, instead of January, to buy one? 

Got direct deposit? Only takes 2 weeks to get your federal return. Jobs need to give forms by January 31st.

 

Increase can easily be attributed to tax return.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

I am surprised that both Nintendo and MS have already given their PR. Now we wait for Sony, I'm sure they'll write something down since PS4 is first and infamous is coming

Well they still have that pesky little Vita, which they probably have nothing positive to share about.

In the PS Nation title?? What exactly are you referring to?

I remember combining PS4 and PS3 when they outsold everything else combined WW (and PS4 was first, whereas One in this case is second)

Yeah, that must have been it. My bad

Yeah he's mostly wrong.
