So looking at the first 3 Q's of shipments for 3DS and XB1 we get a healthy lead for XB1 (770k)

XB1:
1st Q - 1.1m
2nd Q - 550k (estimate)
3rd Q - 1.8m (estimate)
Total - 3.45m

3DS:
1st Q - 0.59m
2nd Q - 0.82m
3rd Q - 1.27m
Total - 2.68m


Last year 3DS did 7.76m in the holiday Q. It is however down in the US Oct + Nov 569k. With Dec sales yet to be reported (likely down another 400k~)

Japan sales are roughly flat, just down a little (50k).

Europe as always is hard to tell but it follows trends from US more than it does Japan.

Also 3DS shipments have been down around 50% all 3 Q's this year. Whilst I don't expect that to be the case this holiday (that'd be 7.7m to 3.8m~) I do expect a big dip, it makes sense given all the data.

Also hard to say what MS may have shipped but VGC sales as of now suggest around 12m+ shipped by end of 2014. That's about 4.5m for the holiday season.

After seeing the ps4 big overtrackment aren't you afraid that xb1 is samely overtracked...?

No? When we start getting sales data for XB1 is when I'll start speculating.

Its weird. You never see these people coming to this kind of conclusion when PS4 is undertracked. "PS4 is undertracked, that means Xbox One is undertracked the same way."
