Ryng on 13 April 2015

Well, this is the last VGChartz week.

PlatformN. AmericaEuropeJapanGlobal
62,734 50,484 32,266 184,456
59,304 60,614 28,918 161,183
58,261 20,981 378 90,149

13,059 5,349 26 21,388
1,199 634 25 1,993

Humm, where to start?

1) PS4 in the US is bigger than in EU. where is the sense?

2) PSVita in NA is bigger than in EU. of course...

3) 3DS in Europe is begger than in US. What?

3) Gap between PS4 and XBO in the US. around 7%... well, there is a MUCH difference story if you look Amazon US best seller.

4) 3DS above XBO in the US. Ok, that is possible because, because 3DS have outsold XBO by a huge margin in February NPD... the fact is that not have sense XBO above 3DS last week and 3DS above XBO this week. Why this week XBO is dropped more than 3DS?

5) 3DS above XBO in UK. the same story...

6) PS3 above XB360 in UK... just why?

7) Wii U down YOY in Europe. SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURE, it is up by 20% in the US confirmed by NPD, and is down in Europe...ok.


And that is only a part of the chartz... seriusly, when will make some adjustment?

I see nothing wrong except maybe in No.7.

If you want to give your views on one week of numbers, it should stay in the weekly sales thread.

Making a whole new thread about numbers being wrong in general should have more historical examples.

So, you think that in the US PS4 and PSVita sell more than in EU, 3DS in Europe sell more than in NA, XBO sell less than 3DS in UK, XB360 sell less than PS3 in UK, ecc?

Instead of making a fuss about 32 units (point 2), we should talk about your English. We have a deadline to hit (September) and I feel that at the current rate we'll fail miserably.

We will see. :P 

EDIT: Oh, also in the title "wrogn" is not a grammatical error, is just a distraction error. :D

Overall The US is the stronger market so the PS4 and the PSVITA selling more there is not a surprise. Europe loves handhelds more than America. Xbo selling less than 3DS in the Uk is possible and the XB360 is practically dead while the PS3 is still alive.

I'm sorry, but since this thread does not include any real analysis and is just complaining about what numbers you don't think are accurate I would suggest that this is a much better reply to the sales thread than a thread on its own. So I'd suggest posting this in the pertinent thread and I'll be locking this one.
