It is really time for VGC to stop overtracking One and untertracking PS4. Whay this? Is M$ a VGC sponsor? How many $ give M$ every month to vgc? need response.


The thing is that last gen X360 sold more than PS3 on USA and they still haven't corrected their algorithm for this so we still have a big deviation... but since this was already complained several times in this thread I don't think it's necessary.


This is very true. Retailers are faster though, both of the Walmart stores near me have cut down the XB1 areas already. They used to have one case dedicated to XB1 games and one half case dedicated to the console. Now they've consolidated to a single case that is partially full of 360 and accessories as well (iow about half the shelf space as before). PS4 has grown a bit, vita shrank, U is bigger, Wii almost gone, ps360 the same except a couple extra rows in the former xb1 case. The endcap new game case also no longer has any X1 in it.

Well retailers really depend on good forecast to profit. VGC can let itself be wrong and adjust every NPD, shipping report etc. I don't know how much customers pay for the data and if they know the reliability of it.
