Forums - Sales Discussion - Destiny caused 500k+ returns of PS4.

As we all know PS4 had announced 10M sales some months away and going by the weekly sales, NPD and other trackers PS4 should show at least 12M for September 30th (13.5M shipped) but it is actually showing 11.4M.

The real reason was hidden from most for quite some time, but I used my investigation skills and discovered what happened. Several customers have been reported to return their PS4 Destiny bundle out of disapointment, we have several threads in here attesting that and they never lied.

So there it is, mistery solved. 600k customers returned their PS4 because of Destiny disapointment. THE BOMBA. VGC is tracking 100% perfectly, no cry of undertracked will be allowed until all the 600k returned PS4 get rebought.

 

Update 1: VGC verified the returned numbers from Taco Bell promotion and cut another 150k from ps4 numbers. Seems like the consoles were filled with taco.

Sony is DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED



Lol



makes sense to me.



I am actually laughing about this. It's why you don't buy into the hype of a game, unless you know it'll be good.

Yep, and they all went to X1, hence the undertracking

I'm fairly certain they all bought Ouyas.

But ioi must decide how they will count the changes from PS4 to X1 (actually I think several people would gladly change Destiny PS4 or X1 for Halo MCC bundle if they could).

So it should have increaesed but VGChartz shows Xb1 also down compared to PS4 in shipments.



GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,

its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).

So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.

PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.

Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.

Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.
