Now this makes sense.

Big 3 consoles sold less than 0.5M and PS4 sold 56% of last Jan. 56% of ~ 350k = ~195k

All matches with GAF numbers

What the fuck? That's a huge over tracking. PS4 sold 271k that month.

North America includes Canada and Mexico.


I was looking at the US number. VGC has it at 302k.



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

I hope this doesn't lead to VGC reducing the PS4 numbers because I have a feeling they've undertracked it in Europe.



 

The PS5 Exists.

I did state NA in my post, not just the US.  Incidentally adding to the confusion lol

So what he's saying is, the XB1 needs to be promotionally priced below the PS4 to have any chance of selling the same. Fair do's.

That guy is so ridiculous, lol. He is such an XBox lover that he is performing damage control for NPD sales.

Exactly.  It still was $399, the exact same price as the PS4, plus 2 free games for half.  Then the other half it had a $50 advantage.  That the PS4 won against all that is definitely a surprise.  Even to Sony fans.  I know I was surprised to see the PS4 continue to outsell the XBO on Amazon after MS announced they were continuing the $50 price cut, given how much it helped them in Nov/Dec.  I mean, I was hoping it would, but I had my doubts that it actually would.

Ps4 isn't overtracked in the USA(it could be if ioi had put the last week!)Why are you telling that?:P Ioi has it at 157k as of third week of january,so he will just add a 38k-40k for the last week of January and voila spot-on!:P

prinz_valium, when the XB1 costs $150 less than last January along with 2 free games, only a 10K increase YOY is bad.
