Many just talk about NA like it was the only thing which really matters...
look at the insane figures for PS4 in Europe alone! OMG !!! roughly 350k !

I talk about the US the most because I am an American so the sales here affect me more than sales in other places. There are more Americans on his site than any other nationality by far. So we like to talk about our country.

As a single nationality, yeah probably. But I think there may well be more Europeans here than Americans

Europe has a much bigger population than the US. I am glad for this as America is crowded enough already.

Crazy high PS4 numbers, BF could very well provide one million at this rate if Europe remains high, Japanese numbers looking increasingly ridiculous in comparison.
One doing a great job, should have a really good BF and December as well.
Even Wii U got a nice lift here, Smash doing its job as ordered.


is there any reason why EU PS4 numbers could drop next week?

Yeah, the effects from the GTA etc bundles will decline a bit.

It could be offset by the xmas period ramping up? I wonder if the upswing in the US will be enough to counter act the drop elsewhere and get it over 1M weekly.

Ok, now I understand.

Will you stop calling all PR spin.  I've explained this to you once already and you said you now understoid.

I understood it is spin...

You are running alone so I just left you alone... nobody seems to care what you think anymore.


Fuck yeah! LOL I went through 35 pages in this thread and this was by far the best post in it!  

 

Also, PS4 domination rocks!

Its really amazing to see how consumers change. From a dismal hardware console like the Wii, where its hardware is less than my Samsung Galaxy S4, to the PS4 where everybody is talking about its superior hardware.
From casual gamers that care about the new controls, to a 2014 E3 where they didnt show almost any game controled by wii mote, move and kinect gone from the XBONE package.
From a generation owned by Wii with 100 millon consoles sold, to the horrible performance of Wii U.
Its awesome to see how consumers change. I wonder what consumers will consume in 9th gen.

when all is said and done 360 and PS3 will have sold about 190M between them. Wii just over 100M. I don't see how the Wii owned that generation.

Xbox was down last week actually.  So, sorry, but no this isnt believable.

In any case, I dont care what happened last week... look at the software chart.  The Xbox ONE will have had a boost bigger than the WiiU this week.  No question about it. 


The week before Halo was Cod

I dunno why this it a discussion point.

You can't compare % boosts when the numerical sales difference is so vast. Xb one sold ~9*Wii U and the differecne in % boost is only 1%. That is completely believable. That extra 1% for Wii U is only 63 Wii U's sold across the whole country. Whereas each 1% for Xb one is about 500 Xb one's sold. The original observation showed a distinct lack of statistical insight.

Samus Aran Littlebigplanet 3 is also on PS3 and graphically it holds up quite well compared to the PS4 (look at comparison vids if you want). All games you mentioned are also on the PS3 or XBONE. Or PC...

seen comparison vids,lbp on ps4 clearly looked better,why play a new game on ps3/360 when you can play it on ps4 where it will look/play better,or do you enjoy playing a worse and shittier looking version of the same game?,,,,, drive club recently came out and infamous first light(again lbp3),you may hate those games but many like em,dont speak for everyone or tell ppl what they should like, also have you been living under a rock? theres exclusives coming out early next year,thats right around the corner.... also most multiplats are better on ps4....



Damn those European numbers are sick for sony. Then again so is being within 20k in the usa vs the xbox when microsoft needs to imo beat sony by at least 150,000 a week minimum thru christmas to chip away at sonys lead in the usa.
