Better but still not factually correct. I'm being a little pedantic of course, but given how close our estimates are for the two platforms I wouldn't say it is really clear which one actually "won" and even less clear which one NPD estimates will win given their own margins of error. Those margins of error increase dramatically by the way when you have items that are seeing erratic sales and sell-outs at different retailers. Bottom line - I wouldn't be suprised if NPD showed a slightly higher estimate for PS4 than Xbox One. The only thing I'd be using VGChartz estimates to try to assert is that PS4 and Xbox One should have sold roughly the same amount as each other in the USA in December at just under a million units each. |
Makes sense, but doesn't the "over 3 million X1's sold" and "4.2 million PS4's sold" claims for 2013 give more of an accurate prediction for the Dec. NPD? Or is it still up in the air because of other countries' inclusion?
