This. Finally someone understands. The PS4 could be winning but we can't be 100% since we dont know the gap. 

Would you two like to explain then why the UC4 bundle jumped so high in the yearlies (Top 10 in fact), while the only XBO SKU isn't even in the Top 50 (at #66, currently), yet? Obviously, the PS4 has been outselling the XBO by quite a bit for that to happen. And a lot of that came from Cyber Monday, which will be included in NPD for Dec.

Well why did the xbox outselk the PS4 Sept and Oct when the slim rose so high? The UC4 sku is selling well dont get me wrong but saying that its a fact without knowing gaps for the monthly is wrong.

So mediacreate numbers are delayed a few days but if they are similar to Famitsu then ps4 is now at 4.03m for the year. Add in the final week and you're looking at 4.2m+.

According to Famitsu it has just beaten ps3's peak year.

Best PS4 Year : 1.79 million
Best PS3 Year : 1.74 million

I think this proves the doom mongers wrong especially on gaf. Ps4 ain't dead in Japan. In fact it is quite healthy. Software sales are also similar to ps3 launch aligned except they're spread out over more titles instead of a select few. Ps4 has a long healthy life ahead of it in Japan.

I can see software dropping a bit since digital is higher these days but PS4 is doing great in Japan.
