Since when is Europe just 3:1?
It's 4.5:1 this year.
Also, why do people keep saying USA+Japan+Europe = Global sales? They are not

Ain't life grand?

If that was the case, those retailers would be burning down the stock with massive promotions. Just like what we saw in late March with the Titanfall bundle.
May be this is happening in Europe with no effect even enouth to push above the moribund WiiU.
Looking at where ioi made adjustments for the XBO, he got rid of a lot from US, but too much in certain months, and barely touched 2013.
In 2013, November is still over tracked by 60k [NPD=909K, VGC=969K], and December did get a decrease, it is still 51k over [NPD=908K, VGC=959K]
January is only 7k over here [NPD=143K, VGC=150K], but then February is missing almost 90k from what it's supposed to be! [NPD=258K, VGC=169K!] March isn't even over 300k here. [NPD=311K, VGC=278K].
April is similar to January, only 7k over [NPD=115K, VGC=122K]. May is only 13k over [NPD=77K, VGC=90K], and June is practically dead on [NPD=197K, VGC=197K]. July is also somewhat close [NPD=131K, VGC=137K]
My problem is here is 2 things. 1. They took so much from months that the Xbox One did really good in (February and March), and barely touched November and December, when those are over tracked by over 111k! [NPD(NOV+DEC)=1817K, VGC=1928K] and number 2. Even with these adjustments, Xbox One is still over tracked by about 23k!
Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

Well, that is what VGChartz is saying after the adjustment.
But sales wise I would say that only USA+Japan = WW because other than shippments they are the only places where we find historical and consistent data. Some times we have word from UK and Germany.
I just think its odd that in Europe the PS4 is selling 2 or 3 times as much as in the USA.
Are those markets driffted apart that much in the late generation?
Why can the XOne put a fight in the USA but not in the Europe?

I think they will give it 2015 /16 to see how it goes when software is more settled in terms of both big hitters and hopefully more regular supply . they run the risk if they introduce another console to early of alianating part of their base , there will be some thoughts along the line of why should I invest in a new console with the spectre of another close on the horizon. |
They have a very strong history of completely dropping support of their dying consoles. I don't think there's any more damage they can do.

It's....it's beautiful
More and more is starts to look less like Wii dominance and more like PS2 dominance. Not quite there yet.
4 ≈ One

True , though this one is compounded by the the fact that it would be very early in the life of the competing consoles .
Research shows Video games help make you smarter, so why am I an idiot

That's the number that shows substainability. Looks like PS4 is 2.8:1 post launch window. This holiday will be the most telling though.
