They'll have to increase the weekly European sales to 400k in order to reach that

Holy guacamole!!

Ps4 weekly hardware and software are insane. Outselling xb1 by almost 5:1. Crazy times we are in.

The ratio for Tekken 7 is also insane.

Ps4 getting closer and closer to that 400k software milestone at retail.

The difference between Tekken 7 on PS4 and X1 is staggering.  I think it goes to show that the demographic in both consoles might be a little bit more different than we thought.

Poor numbers for Tekken 7 really, It sold less on the PS4 than Street Fighter V did on it's first week and only beat it's total first week sales due to been on the Xbox One.

Street Fighter V PsS - 439k
Tekken 7 - PS4 - 433k
Tekken 7 - X1 - 91k

I thought it was going to a lot bigger launch than Street Fighter V which was terrible but the sales are really disappointing both on Xbox One and PS4.

Very true, i am not a fighting game fan and less of a fan of SF or Tekken (mostly a Guilty Gear guy myself), but its sad to see these games underperform, i could somewhat understand what happend to SFV since it launched without any single player content, and many people where calling it an Early AAAccsess game, but i dont get why Tekken did so low... its like the game took so long to come out that when it did the hype wasnt there anymore.

Actually no, Machina said they're going to continue as normal and then adjust after.

Unless you think they're gonna put it as 900k sold next week? 

Damn... and i thought this was them trying to adjust to the number Sony gave out for mid June, but if this is just a "normal" week then that is seriously impressive.

When the the Switch will replace the WiiU on the front page. Seeing Wii U number make me feel itchy.

We're going to see this throughout the whole next year. :)

We will see, Switch still has huge stock problems (its still constantly outsold in US and Japan and in some Europe countries), but hardle it will have those problems next year.

If it's constantly sold out, how did it sell 144k? It's just available in stores.

Because it sells out fast. It's like saying if the NES classic was constantly sold out, how did it sell 2.5 million? It's out of stock more than it's in stock, because it that stock is bought so quickly it's never in stock for long, that's why it's both constantly out of stock and sold 144k, because just like that 2.5 mil, that 144k is nowhere near enough to meet the demand.

So where are people buying these stock from? Let's take the US, for example (because we know the Switch is not sold out everywhere). Are people waiting in line outside of Walmart or something?

If you've been following the US Amazon Thread lately as an example, you'd see when it does gets new stock shipments every once in a while, it shoots to the top of the charts, then sells out in minutes, and goes back to being sold out.
