I just realised Monster Hunter Frontier G on Vita hasn't been tracked here.

Whyoi?

Oh, X1 at 5.0M again on the front page after the adjustments... Like many weeks ago...

The 2014 Wii U numbers of Germany are probably too high because they didn't adjust the 2013 numbers. It was at 160K by September according to the same tracking company, the vgchartz numbers are still at 133K.

^ this.

People dont seem to realise that multyplats only give the x1 a one week boost and not even that big. The week after sales will go back to awful. The only thing is that on october and november there are a lot of games releasing so we will have to wait untill january to see the real baseline, wich I belive will be around 50k and slowly go down to under 30k in the following 3 months, then a boost for another week when witcher and batman come out, then sad again. But this time it will continue to be bad untill the summer for quantom brake wich will give like a 2-3 week boost then under 40k again untill the holidays.

And now we got the information that new bundles, one with physical mario 3d world + nintendo land and another with Mk8 + nintendoland will release mid september. considering xone is quite overtracked in US, it's weekly baseline is 10k lower than vg chartz currently shows. so it's possible it won't be above wii u even on destiny week. but the new bundles followed by bayo 2 and fatal frame on japan + Hyrule warriors on west on the following weeks will make sure xone won't be ahead of wii u for more than a week or two.

I had no idea about those bundles. I thought for sure that september would go in x1's favor, but if what you say is true then the wii us momentum will just keep going strong. 

But what are the prices for those bundles? Still $300 I hope.

Yup, $299 for the new bundles.

Imagine if PS4 had some good content for the Japan market

Does someone have the charts for just 2014 sales between X1, PS4, and WiiU? I'd like to see that isolated.

You can do it on the main page, below the bars it says "this generation" click on that and select "year to date"

Ah yes, found it :) I needed to show it to someone who thought the X1 was selling solidly (Facebook friend). Microsoft's old 'X1 is selling better than 360' bunk needed to be deflated with the truth. It sold well for two months and has basically died on the vine in 2014.

Never mind the fact that the digital version isn't included, a VGC poster actually had the audacity to tell me that TLOU:R wasn't hangin' on strong.


Numbers are a bit skewed because of the Japan launch, it did around 30,000 units there.

Still hanging on pretty good elsewhere though. Only saw really slight drops in NA and EU.

I'm curious to see Destiny effect on X1, Watch Dogs had no effect, some people said it's because of hte price cut, still, it didnt get a big boost after price cut.

I bet it will only get a boost of 100k maximum.

Destiny =/=atch Dogs. It's Bungie, it's FPS and it has a Halo vibe to it, apparently. So I expect Destiny to have a longer term benefit on Xb one sales than Watch Dogs.
