Well, even if he doesnt, there are big chances that Destiny had the same effect in the rest of the world

PS4: 17m XB1: 10m WiiU: 10m Vita: 10m

He specifically stated North American sales at the beginning of his statement:

"it has officially become the biggest PS4 game launch in North America ever"

So I think the rest of the PR is still about NA sales.

Assuming Adam is talking about US only...

We have PS4 @ 97,000 during inFamous Week.

Thats the highest Week in 2014.

Over 100k PS4s sold in US alone?

Yeah he has to be talking USA alone, because there's no freakin' way Destiny launch beats Japan launch week with 468K. ~100K for USA alone is pretty amazing though. What's the bet VG Charts puts PS4 at 97,615 for the week (Infamous week +1)?

When bundles sell less than a game that wasn't released, when games that weren't released get in top10... it is quite possible that next week is 80k in USA and we all look dumb, complain about undertracked and there will be people cursing us for complaining, demanding us to wait for sources or saying we are salty because other console had a good bump and ours hadn't... do you think it would be impossible? (And I think there is a great possibility of it being small number above 97,615).
