100M incoming!!! :D



Can't wait for this slow period to be over with. The ps4 is so close to 100 million



Very slow time of year......I wonder what E3 will bring and how will things work for Sony with them not being there.....I think they have something else big up their sleeves....but we will see. Number.....blah for this time of year.



The absence of evidence is NOT the evidence of absence...

Did the all digital console make the Xbox consoles sell even less or what?lol

So seems like its not just Japan.



Pocky Lover Boy! 

Wonder if some people are waiting on things like the Switch revision possibly being revealed at E3 before jumping in now to buy one... but I dunno is your average Switch buyer that clued into upcoming gaming news with stuff like that to put them off buying a system... they might be just outside playing sports in the sun because it's summer time I guess!

X1 pretty much dead in the water now in the EU, being outsold 5:1 and 7:1 by the Switch and PS4 respectively, then again I'll always say it, the Wii-U was doing numbers way worse than this and now Nintendo have the number 1 system so it's very possible with a good system and good marketing to get back into gamers good graces quite easily, people won't hold a "grudge" if they create a machine that gamers want.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

I love your charts, please keep it up!

Also, the advantage of the Switch continues to grow, albeit more slowly than before.

It's at the same price as the one with a disc drive, so really not worth it. I doubt that it will sell more than a handful units until a pricecut.

I doubt the average consumer cares about E3, it wouldn’t shock me if most do not even know what E3 is.

Although you are right about generation over generation could be a whole new ballgame. Which is why I think Nintendo should get out of that and go with a shorter incremental gen approach rather than a “start from scratch” approach... which has led them to declines in sales on all but 5 of their hardware releases (NES, GB, DS, Wii, and Switch).
