Damn PS4 is selling like hotcakes even before Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank or Dark Souls 3 even have been released worldwide.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

Ps4 ruling the charts! Over 3 to 1 over its rival.

Ps vita over Wii U!

3DS above x1. Can I ask. If the 3DS in its last year before a successor is outselling the x1 can we realistically say the x1 will probably never reach the current 3DS lifetime sales?

Sarcasm? Of course that's never gonna happen. 3DS should end at 70 million when all is well and done, XB1 will be lucky with 50 million. Probabily only 40 million.

He said "The Current Life-time Sales", this means the 56-58 Millions that 3DS, has Sold until Now.

I said the current total.  Early in the gen there was still hope for the x1 to match 360 sales but it's become fairly obvious the ps4 is stealing it's thunder.

The scary thing is the sales could be even more dominant for ps4 in 2017 or 2018. Over the x1 at least.

We still need to see how the market reacts, after the Supposed Slim models, and the Xbox 1,5 and PS4,5.

If it goes well, 2016 might not even be the PS4's peak year.



PS4 is currently looking to do a PS2 sales wise.

Those PS4 numbers are amazing.

Also, the 3DS still is keeping really good numbers, not bad for the oldest current gen system. It really makes me think Nintendo will replace the WiiU first, the 3DS can still reach 65 million before its successor arrives.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

People will complain, but I think the PS4 is being overtracked, or at least in NA. No way its doing 110,000, especially with nothing this month to shift the balance. Trust me, the NPD numbers will show.



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

The NPD will show that the Ps4 is Up YoY but will not disclaim specifics. 

At least thats what i think, so we have to settle with VgChartz numbers and believe them, or not.

The Ps4 has been on the Top 15 in Amazon for the entire month while the Xbox One on the 80's. The gap makes sense.

Not really... especially considering Microsoft has far more bundle's, and that Amazon isn't our only source for game console sales. Another thing is that the PS4 did around 300k with SFV last month, how is doing over 400k this month, especially with nothing new showing up? Nothing can account for this increase.
