I guess I don't understand the big deal if X1 wins one NPD. People act like its a big deal but its one market...they're still getting killed in total sales.


That one market is the biggest.  So, yeah, it does matter.  


No it doesn't(yes i wrote my account name wrong - cold hands)

Still waiting for some data to come in but at the moment it is looking like both PS4 and Xbox One are over 1m units worldwide for the week with the PS4 taking a slight lead.

Winning the world with doing absolutely nothing to even compete(PS4) > Doing good for a short period of time with throwing everything out for free in a two places you are expected to dominate.(X1 in the USA and UK)

This is far bigger achievement that Sony edged them out at the end easily
And why?Cause of Worldwide again
The USA alone isn't important enough if you struggle everywhere else.At the end it is the big picture which matters.

NPD doesn't matter shit especially in times like these where those 2 put so much different effort into selling their product.
You can't compare what Sony does(nothing) for the PS4 to what Microsoft started with the beginning of November.
Still Sony wins - They don't care for a few NPDs here and there if they win every single week worldwide.

So what does winning the biggest market do if you still lose out overall?
The USA as a standalone isn't big enough against the whole World.
