Forums - Sales Discussion - USA Pre-Order Chart 10th May. Watch Dogs and Mario Kart continue strong preordes

vivster on 14 May 2014

I think the preorder numbers for PS4 and X1 are weird. The shares between the versions of Destiny and Watch dogs don't represent the share of the current install bases. Sure Sony is doing a lot of exclusive marketing for both but I doubt there are less X1 owners looking forwad to them. I don't think PS4 will get a much bigger sales boost from those games in US.

Watchdogs might give a reasonable boost to both PS4 and Xb one.

MK8 will have minimum 300,000 pre order with ultimate 2 week.
I I had estimated 50,000 pre order this week,400,000 pre order before coming, and 600,000 first week.
Now, i think 55,000 nex week, 330,000 before coming, and 550,000 first week.

It is going to be interesting to see if XOne Watch Dogs pre orders pick up now that the $399 XOne console has been announced. Anyone think the XOne version could start outpacing the PS4 version?

I forget to say, is only in USA XD WW i think minimum 1,000,000, maybe 1,200,000.
For Watch Dog.

Very strong PS4 version, ottimum XO, and good PS3/X360 version.

PC is not bad, but the problem iis not have boots of per order... less of 1,000 3 week before resale is bad! :(

But i hope will have ultimate week one good boots. (:

Wii U version for now have 300 pre order on week, and have 29,300 pre order total.

If resale on October/November, maybe will sold good even on Wii U.

First week, i estimate:

PS4: 800,000

XO: 450,000

PS3: 350,000

X360: 200,000

PC/Wii U: 150,000

No boost for DriveClub?

No Sunset Overdrive seems ludicrous even before this weeks announcements. It will surely chart next week.

This is from last weeks article about the pre-order charts:

"Sunset Overdrive (XOne) added 107 pre-orders for a total of 5,849."

And while of course not showing the whole picture, the game is still only number 449 on the Amazon hourly bestseller list.

I think you might be overestimating the effect of the trailer.

Numbers

Damn, handhelds are dead in the US. Then again HW numbers have been showing that for forever now.

I wonder whats the next game to chart here. Only thing I can think of is Pokemon ORAS


I'm 100% sure SSB will chart for the 3DS. Maybe Proffesor Layton Vs  Ace Atorney and the new Theatrhythm but there are no release dates for both of them in the moment.

Not only I don't trust these numbers, but the numbers are looking too low, especially for MK8. 250k is my guess



...Let the Sony Domination continue with the PS4...

What do you mean still?

It shot up after the reveal.

I may be overestimating, but I am also acutely aware of the limited nature of this charts.

I didn't see it shoot up, but sure.

The nature of which charts? Vgchartz or Amazon?

Anyway all I've been trying to say is that I'd be mighty surprised if the game appeared in the pre order charts next week or even in the next couple weeks for that matter.
