pezus said: I am incredibly late to this party! A very interesting read as always. Thanks.
I have some notes: "PSP is doing okay, likely due to sales in other regions outside of Europe (because VGC thinks Europe is the whole world outside North America and Japan)" - This is actually not true. VGC have another region called Rest of the World. I think you might have WiiU wrong in the Europe Hardware Sales table Also, I don't understand where the "Plus xxm" numbers come from in the best selling consoles table. They do not match up with the numbers in the Worldwide sales table (first table). Same thing for the "Current Generation Regional sales table".
Correct me if I'm wrong! |
RE Rest of World - That's true, but PSP is still doing well in Europe, nearly half of its sales come from Europe.
WiiU - VGC did an update just after I published this, they may have changed the number significantly.
As for the rest, my charts were made using data up to October 5th, so the numbers don't match up because a) the data is 3 weeks old, and b) VGC did a major update in that time.
As for the "Plus xx million" that's how many units sold in the quarter. i.e. Q3 2013 (Plus xx million is what it gained since the last update, giving it the number it has listed there)
