VGChartz November 2022 US estimates BEFORE adjustments:

1. XS: 1.25M
2. PS5: 1.14M
3. NS: 1.05M

VGChartz November 2022 US estimates AFTER adjustments:

1. PS5: 1.14M
2. NS: 1.09M
3. XS: 1.08M

PS5 remains the same, NS adjusted up, and XS adjusted down.

Yeah you were a bit too much enthusiastic about the Xbox

It’s like they don’t get it. No offense.

They still have Xbox selling more than PS5 black friday week. That weekend is the biggest of the entire month. If Xbox sold more it would have won the month.

The adjustments aren’t enough either.

Off with the U.S. and black friday so the numbers are definitely off for Europe. 

I don’t understand why you guys keep under tracking PS5 and way over tracking Xbox. Even the Switch gets over tracked.

Dont base anything from sales in the U.K. Sony obviously sent the majority PS5’s to the rest of Europe and the USA.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Xbox is over tracked by 1.5M. PS5 is at least a couple hundred thousand off.

I mean this site had Xbox selling more than PS5 the second week of God Of War and whole lot of PS5 in stock. Like that’s an easy guess that PS5 would be selling the most over Switch and Xbox the entire month.

NPD confirmed what VGChartz already showed in their weekly #'s for November, that PS5 was ahead of the Switch in the USA for the month by 10's of thousands of units.  Where is this amazing revelation that shows VGChartz has some kind of anti-Sony bias you are claiming that NPD has proven?

What data did NPD give that proves this sites data is correct? I didn’t see any numbers in NPD report. It’s just dollar sales and information on 1st 2nd and 3rd place consoles.

This site already admitted they based U.K. sales on the estimates for November. Which honestly makes no sense. U.K. is the smallest market out of all of Europe. And PS5 was behind only by thousands of sales. Not no hundreds of thousands. I wouldn’t use that data point for anything.

Sony said they were increasing PS5 stock. God Of War release in November. That’s all the datapoint anyone needs to know that PS5 would be selling the most for November and on a weekly bases.

So PS5 was not undertracked, and the Switch was not overtracked, no matter how much people always insist they are.

Says who exactly? That’s not official data.
