Forums - Sales Discussion - 3DS/Vita [NPD vs VGC] Analysis: Overtracked US Sales By at LEAST 128k(Vita) and 525k(3DS)! "Detailed List of Months Inside"

***All numbers here end on Apr 5th

NPD #s                          VGC: #s                Over/Under By:

WiiU: 2.30mil              2,377,734               *70k-80k

PS4: 2,908,000        2,981,827               73,827

XB1: 2,527,132        2,654,330               127,198

 

Question is how much is 3DS overtracked by and Vita as well?

I made an analysis on wat is 3ds/vita off by per month. There are some months with unknown numbers of course (nothing we can do about it :-/ ).

So After researching all of this, the conclusion came out to this here for US sales!

Vita is at LEAST 128K Overtracked here. There are many months with vita having a "less than" a certain number amount. If we estimate each month was only 3k off that number then vita is overtracked by at least 145k. 

3DS is MASSIVELY OVERTRACKED. Its at least over 525k (with estimated some of the "in between" months) If we estimated right in the middle for the 3 months that 3ds was between #A and #B, its at least 560k overtracked.

 

       VGC#s as of Apr 5th         The Sales Its At MAX!       The Sales Realistically Between

 

3DS:  12,211,309                     11.68mil                           11.50mil-11.65mil

Vita:    1,743,453                        1.61mil                             1.50mil-1.60mil  

 

⇒Situation?  3DS: Its selling on a much lesser monthy base than 2012/2013. A Price Cut and Some big Software (SSB/MH) should help further the sales.

Vita: Its getting the Vita 2000 that should keep sales much higher than it is now (May Release), it really needs the vita tv imo. Is alot more of a western device. That said, prepare for a terrible Apr as its nothing spectacular and might see under 10k next NPD o.O

When Vgchartz will adjust the numbers?




Updated, discuss! I hope this helps!

I believe the Feb 2014 number is 24k, unless the 3DS number for the month is actually supposed to be higher because I think we got a number for what the combined portable numbers but not Vita. However we got the 3DS number sometime later and that's when we determine the Vita number to be this
