Really? The Wii U didn't beat the PS4? Hm. Fine, I'll take it.

BAM!

those saying xbone would fly past wiiU before the end of this year just had their dream pushed back by 2 months.

watch dog's "pretend" exclusivity led to a much better bump for ps4.









...who am i kidding. even when i like the numbers i still can't take this site seriously.


yeah as much as i want to say "well looks like PS4 has been doing better than i thought it would" after seeing adjustments for the previous weeks, i still cant say i believe these numbers. here is to hoping sony will announce sold through numbers at e3, at least that would mean they announce something at e3.

XB1 cant be true. im calling undertracked.

Why? Wouldn't you wait 2 weeks to get $100 off if you didn't want Kinect?


correct me if i am wrong, but marketing for the 399$ console hasnt started yet, right? 

Yes, on the internet, Gamestop, Xbox 360, and TV

True, but I think Destiny have a bigger influence on XBO sales. Bungie is especially loved by Xbox fans.

I'm actually kind of curious to see how that plays out.  Bungie's currently showcasing Destiny on the PS4, so it's basically getting the publicity along with the exclusive content.  It'll be interesting to see if Microsoft puts their marketing muscle behind it, regardless of what Bungie/Sony do.  And will XBO owners be as excited for Destiny as PS4 owners, with the different advertising focus (if it's slanted towards PS4 that is, they have a huge budget ~500 million, so they could conceivably afford the media blitz for both machines).



Is this the first week PS4 isn't outselling X1 and Wii U combined?

Wow!! The Wii U and MK8 put up a good fight. Obviously the PS4 and WD had longer on the market. I am sure there will be those that picked up the wiiu and MK8 after this chart so maybe it could do about half what it did this week next week. That would be a good result and about what any sane person would expect.

WD didn't do much for XBone. Those 52k must be all N.America. I really don't see the kinect less XBone pulling up trees in Europe but will be big in NA.

Yeah. Except it's not.



Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

Depends what you mean by marketing. You go onto any website to buy an X1, they all say you can pre-order one for 399.

well if the average joe doesnt know about the price cut, i dont see why a big game like WD wouldnt boost the console. i could be wrong, i just expected more. 



Very great wii u numbers
(Hopefully mk8 can keep it have a steady 100k per week)
Watch dogs brings ps4 past 200k I see that's good
Poor 3ds is now in the 70000s hope it can pick up during christmas
