That right there basically is the reason why we need to pick 1 tracker. Its convient for you (or any1 else) to cherry pick. That said famitsu had 53weeks when it really is 52 weeks (aka its down more YoY when lined up properly). Another reason mc is superior and doesn't mess things up. Ps4 did have a great year no denying that. Especially first 3quarters

We don't need to do anything. I can do what I want and I've always primarily used mediacreate and vgchartz numbers which is a combination of the too. The only reason you don't see me talking about the vgchartz figures is because they are always over a month late updating them. Back when they did their sales on time I'd comment on them. 

 

I've also always commented on famitsu numbers come the end of the year when they have their totals. They are worth considering and even when you take away week 53 and get the average between both trackers ps4 is still higher this year.

 

At this point you're just looking for an argument. 

Nah, for 1 thing a couple of MC threads ago you, me, and many others here had a debate that only one tracker should be used. I forgot how the argument came to be but i remember agreeing with you that it should be 1 (in most case MC) that should be used. Your now cherry picking just to put up ps4 sales to be up YoY. (Its basically flat anyway). Even Switch someone could just say "NSW beat WiiU lifetime in its first year" but it be wrong as its about 17k short of the target.

 

Edit: nvm
