The VGChartz estimates are out for Europe and I thought this was noteworthy enough to have it's own thread. The PS5 just posted the all-time record for European sales in a November month according to VGChartz estimates. After 15 years the DS's 2008 record has fallen, bar any adjustments of 154k or more. Please note this is only counting systems that are tracked by VGChartz. (I.E No PS2). I do not have the numbers to say whether PS2 ever had a stronger November in European sell-through.
Here are the top 12 November European sales (every time a console sold over 1m units)
Console | Year | Sales |
PS5 | 2023 | 1,710,324 |
DS | 2008 | 1,556,491 |
PS4 | 2015 | 1,281,992 |
PS4 | 2016 | 1,257,341 |
DS | 2007 | 1,203,386 |
PS4 | 2014 | 1,134,004 |
Wii | 2008 | 1,054,118 |
PS4 | 2017 | 1,047,150 |

Wii | 2009 | 1,026,395 |
PS4 | 2018 | 1,008,523 |
