these days the software top 10 is way more interesting than hardware #1
it's 90% ps4 and some rare montsh xb1

45 minutes to go for some interesting info :D

Totally agree with you. We already know PS4 is always the winner, there is nothing to say about it...

Not surprised seeing ps4 at #1. xb1 might have a chance next month with the division marketing deal.

I doubt it. Without a special edition console bundle, I don't see any multiplat games significantly shifting the sales balance towards Xb one.

Not only that, but its 399$. Absolutely stupid of Microsoft. 



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

nothing will stop this hype train. congrats sony and congrats ps4!

If the PS4 showed strong growth YoY, yet overall hardware is down double digits,... Wii U & XB1 must have had a pretty bad month.

to much assumptions in here

"strong" is subjective!
does sony talk about this month or full year 2016?
was that double digit number about hardware (and if so was it home consoles only, or all consoles? new 3ds was released last year) or overall market?
was that double digit number revenue or units (revenue should be down a lot higher, because of new pricepoint for the ps4)

@binary solo

Really? no special edition console bundle? What a waste of marketing deal.



  • 3DS drop responsible for the majority of the % drop
  • The double digit % drop is HW, SW and ACC combined
  • Street Fighter V charted
  • PS4 between 342k and 410k
