Beat it by a few thousand coming off the back of one of its biggest releases of its lifetime. Nothing to boast about. And X1 resumed giving it a beating shortly after.

you say that while ignoring X1 needed money bleeding price cuts and bundles for that and that MK8 isn't front loaded.

The X1 did not need "bleeding money" price cuts to beat the Wii U. It's third place, for the love of god just accept it and move on.

~420k for Dying light so seems like some good tracking on it. Is >500k on Neogaf so might be slightly undertracked. % wise between the plattforms for the game is also around the Neogaf NPD numbers.

you're denying that $150 is a money bleeding pricecut and following with an unrelated offensive sentence.

Nobody knows how much MS is making or losing on the X1, nor what they are thinking of it, and I wish people would stop pretending to know.

But third can mean anything from 12m-40m LT lol. There was plenty of room for wii U to improve upon last years numbers, I guess things are gonna be level.

guess based on 4 weeks of data?

yep its a projection, things will get worse in feb, march will even out. April and may will be up, june and july and august will be down. Overall I expect things to be up but insignifcantly enough for it not to accumulate into 1m.

Price cut could change that though....

they sold so many systems that the wii u actually beat the xbox one multiple times.

sure, if you call nearly 100,000 or over 50,000 a few thousand (lol xbox was below 40,000 the week where wii u sold 50,000 more)

Now the numbers looks more in line with NPD. Unless something drastic happen, this year will look similar in terms of rankings as last year.

Like I said, it had just released one of the biggest games the pathetic system will ever get. The X1 had no major releases and on the first week you linked was about to get a price cut. I'm sorry I don't memorise VGChartz numbers, I have a life.

Stop trying to pour cold water on Xbox sales all the time, it gets really old.

You do know that that's two weeks before the kinectless SKU launched, which means that they could get an XBO for 100$ less by waiting nine days? And that that's the week where the Wii U got it's biggest SW release ever?
