if you have evidence... show it.

a lower shipment figure doesnt mean yeild issues by the way.

But back to the evidence, lets see it.

My evidences... lower shipment = yields issues... or did you thing MS is shipping less on pourpose? I'm sure if they can produce more they are doing that right now... the % of good chips from MS is lower than Sony... all the others parts of the consoles are easy to produce for both.

PS. I expect to Sony have issues with low GDDR5 production but seems like Sansumg is deliverying what Sony needs.

Ethomaz you've already been proved wrong and shown you have no idea with your ridiculous first week prediction for Xbox One, why are you persisting with this yield issues/low shipments song when you've A) been proven wrong and B) obviously have no evidence, or weak evidence at that.

The PS4 would have broken that record, if sony decided to ship more units down here

Fact is, the PS4 is sold out til the end of feb 2014, while the xbox one is available for an in store pick up at any day of the week.

Microsoft did an impressive job sending units down here, but the lead won't last very long.

Lol 65k? that's a record?


It's the same as the US buying 900k consoles at launch. Surely a great number.

Stupid question... but can you, or anyone else explain why that's 900K in the US? Higher price, it's not connecting in my head :(

Bam! Wow, so Xbox sold better in Australia than the USA?  (or about the same, that's amazing.)

I am genuinly surprized by those numbers.  Congratulations to the Xbox Aussie Team!



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

I think its " record" and not "records".

Sony gave us Aussie the big middle finger tbh. The PS4 is only $50 less than when compared to the Xb1 pricing: PS4 = $549 vs XB1 = $600.00, there were massive shortage to the point that there were literally no day 1 PS4 at all and pretty much all retailers are back ordered to next Jan / Feb.

Good job MS, you came through with the goods you get the dough.

Record smashing 65K in Australia????

PS4 is fucked...


Ps4 sold 50k in it's first week and is sold out until February.


Someone can't read sarcasm.


And people don't understand how big of % that is, same % as America selling 950k

Uh no, 65k is not the same as 950k. Overall number of units sold matter, not a percentage growth which can be pretty useless.
