Forums - Sales Discussion - [Final Update] 2014 vs. 2015 end of year year on year showdown - Home console edition

Good idea bro (or dad since you have double my years and I have the age of one of your sons) :P

As for ps4... It would beat itself because of the price drop, game releases never had bigger effect than a price cut, at least in the long run !:P

I didn't see you mentioning that!:P


As for the wii u,in last quarter the shipments were up by 120k compared to last year same quarter, we're talking about sales though, but mostly shipments show the demand, at least when we're not talking about overstuffing the channels/overshipping! :P Also, wii u is beating it's best year in Japan, 2013, it remains to be seen, if it will continue that victory, anyway, it has lock it's win against 2013...

As for xboxone... Nothing, owing to the fact that Microsoft didn't disclose its shipments last quarter...
One thing I could say, is a stronger performance in the USA/NA thanks to halo, unless a great proportion of people that would buy it when halo would release, had already purchased it due to the price drop...

I hardly think there will be any major surprises here. But good fun none the less from the OP!



Still not updated. I am disappoint.

PS4 up, X1 up, Wii U down for 31st Oct.

OP updated with the first batch of Oct data. Forst 3 weeks are approximations based on the total month's sales, less the actuals provided for w/e 31 Oct.

Hopefully Oct is the only month I'll need to do this. Obviously I will update with actuals when they are available.

So, everything is up YoY right now. PS4 is up over 7K, Xb one is up over 37K, thanks Halo 5, Wii U is up over 18K, nice.

In terms of how I expect numbers to shift, I expect PS4 to be much lower on w/e 10 Oct, because the price cut had not come into effect. And consequently the following 2 weeks should be a bit higher to reflect price cut boost. Not sure how things will change for Xb one or Wii U. We have actuals for Halo 5 week, so my guess is previous Xb one weeks will be close to that average. Same with Wii U, unless there is a significant game I'm not considering, Mario Marker? When did that come out?
