we might also get an update after japans launch



I am Torgo, I take care of the place while the master is away.

"Hes the clown that makes the dark side fun.. Torgo!"

Ha.. i won my bet, but i wasnt around to gloat because im on a better forum!  See ya guys on Viz

I'm personally not expecting an update from Sony regarding PS4 sales numbers until perhaps the launch in Japan (or with the quarter financials), since they've essentially updated us after the US launch, and then the European one. I really doubt that they're going to make an announcement after every single million mark they hit.

Decent Wii U sales. If Nintendo can make a good push in Europe they'll be alright, but Japan sales are great, and the US sales are getting there.

PS4 seems... off. I dunno. 290K in hardware and no games in the top 20? I don't think that bodes well for strong sales post holiday.


Just don't forget that many players decided to buy mainly digital games with those next gen consoles.

Digital purchases, PSN Plus rented games (Resogun...) and lots of free games (Warframe, blacklight, DC Universe...) on PS4 may help to explain the low sales of traditional physical games.

Yes you have a point many seem to forget a lot. Sony is entering this gen by proving to be more than just hard/software and entertainment machine but the whole package, the whole service together via only a subscription. And it has only started so brace yourselves,,,

Maybe but Germany, France, UK, Austria, Italy and Spain represent 90% of sales in Europe. The increase will be minimal.

yeah, but that would be after the Quarter results. so we would get an update of those numbers. but either way, if these numbers are true, sony should easily break that 5 million mark by the end of march. 1.6 million to go, with the japanese launch.

I've predicted some time ago that XO will have to fight hard if it is to outsell Wii U this gen and I stick to this. I think Wii U can outsell XO. XO doesn't stand a chance in Europe - there is absolutely no chance of it ever coming close to X360 numbers here. On the other hand Wii U should pick up to at least decent numbers if Nintendo finally learns what it has to do with it.


That is what i have said aswell.

PS4 will dominate. Wii U and X1 will be at each others throats.

Most likely another round of PS2 like gen.

 

Of course, Microsoft can go crazy if they want to take huge losses and either cut the price or take that kinect out. I dont think taking the kinect out is enough. They need to have a lower price than the PS4 to have a chance.


yeah this is probably going to be how this new gen goes that $500 price tag and sony being "for the gamer" this going to hurt the xbone

My brother is a perfect example of this, as he has only purchased the PS4 and a Plus subscription, and has mostly been playing Resogun and a few other digital games (i.e., he hasn't purchased any retail games yet).

Maybe but the 13 countries represent 90/95% of sales in Europe. The increase will be minimal.

13? More like 7.
