1.9m Of course, that's right in line with their 2m+ figure.

What I don't get is US sales, perhaps Week 3 was on par with Black friday, doesn't make much sense to me tho.


Yeah i was going to say it fits what Microsoft said almost exactly considering the numbers are also 5 days before Microsoft announced 2m so another 100k since then at least (on VGC)

I don't post here but just to help a little (please don't ban me)... in the Week 3 MS did a new shipment because all the stores sold out at Black Friday received more units to sell (eg. Amazon, Bestbuy, Gamestop, Walmart, etc)... the MS comment about *1000 units per minute at Amazon * was at Week 3 just about when Amazon get supply.

So maybe the Week 3 is really on par or better than BF's week because the supply diffence.

I'm out now... have a good night.

Thanks, you were right then so gratz! I wouldn't have believed it until I saw the numbers for myself. This holiday really is dictated by what stock is where. Great to see both selling everything they can ship though.

NPD is US only, right? If so, that's pretty close to what VGchartz measured (909k vs 967k). The question is, how accurate is VGchartz Global November number, 1.52m? I hope that it's accurate, because if it's overtracked, that calls into question the accuracy of Microsoft's 2m in 18 days claim.


Yeah it is only US so it looks like VGC did a pretty good job xD

Unfortunately they didnt do that good of a job with 3DS O.o  I mean wow, missing it by 400k

So Microsoft is the only one that doesn't have a remote play option at the moment.  PS4/Vita, WiiU/Gamepade, and Steam/Nvidia Shield.

Would you guys like to see Microsoft find a way to impliment remote play with Xbox One?

A Dead Rising 3 demo just dropped on Xbox One. Head to the game store to download it.
