Forums - Sales - PS4 fastest-selling console in UK history (Over 250K PS4 Sold in 48h)

That xbox one drop is shocking. Probably going to happen with PS4 as well with the lack of units.

"This means that the current-gen trio (which until recently referred to as ‘next-gen’) already enjoys an install base of around 600k units in the UK. Both PS4 and Xbox have already comfortably outsold Nintendo’s Wii U, which was released in the UK over a year ago."

Wii U possibly overtracked in the UK?


xbox one + ps4 = 400k consoles

therefore 200k Wii U's sold in UK. What are VGC numbers? I thought they were like 150k for wii u

Vgchartz has it at about 200k, but look at the bolded part, that's why I think the Wii U might be overtracked by a couple 10k in the UK.



Expected... most guys predicted that.

So, less than 1mi confirmed for EU first day?

I bet it would be close to 700k, may be I was right.

Why? Germany would have easily matched the UK alone and France will have probebly nearly matched it. Then you have the rest of Europe and Australia. I'd say nearer 1.3 - 1.5 million.


And whay Sony is still quiet yet?

I didn´t heard much of Deutschland but I read reports at NeoGaf that supply in France, Italy and Spain was very low, and you know the infamous situation in Brazil. I saw with my eyes a pile of 10 XOnes and other with 5 WiiU in a store where they have only one PS4 in a glass case.


I don't know where did you live here but this information is false.
Sony shipped less than 5000 units officially to Brasil and it is Sold Out or close to in most places here in Sampa... You will find 1-2 units in stock in most places. At the gray market the PS4 is selling way better than Xbone... a lot of units being sold per Store at Sta. Efigenia.... There are more PS4 than Xbone... they are waiting a new shipment since last week... you can check yourself there and the stores will confirme what I'm saying... the difference in sales here in PS4 favor is big.

BTW 300k in UK means way over 1 million WW in 48 hours. AMAZING.

I will NEVER get close to St Efigenia again.

And to be honest, I don´t care and people here shouldn´t care about "the grey market". We are talking about official retailers, marketing and advertising. If you go to any shopping here you will find a lot of Xbox propaganda. Sony on the other hand is pushing their TVs (tied-in with World Cup) even my gym has Sony´s TV propaganda. However in games, if you care, there is only GT6 to be seem. 

I´m using your beloved NeoGaf to figure Sony shipments are laking at many markets. And even in USA many users have said there were much more Xbox Ones on the shelves.

I don´t understand why one try to be more otimistic than Sony. If they belive they will ship 3mi this hollydays, they will ship 3mi not much more.
