Blood_Tears said: Yes I would suspect that those Europe numbers are way too low for this week imo. There has been constant adjustments to PS5 over the last 5 months and that trend will likely continue. I try not to put too much importance on these weekly numbers because of that, especially in the holiday period and with dealing with such a low difference between the top 2 platforms. It's best to wait for the official data, such as quarterly shipments, NPD, Europe charts etc. For instance, while it's true the site overtracked PS5 by 1 Million last year they also overtracked Switch by over 1 Million two holidays prior to that. Holidays on this site can get messy from time to time and things are going to flip flop. Just like last quarter when Switch was top selling weekly here but still PS5 outshipped the Switch that quarter. It's best to wait until January when everything gets adjusted when official data is released. |
It will be interesting to see how the PS5 performs in NA this month. It is Ragnarok's strongest region by quite a margin so I wouldn't be surprised if Sony has allocated a ton of stock there. I could see a few Sony records in NA being broken this month (IE. best selling PS5 month, best selling PlayStation Black Friday, fastest selling first party software, etc).
