Very depressing NA number for Vita but they were expected. On a more positive note it's at least still tracking above it's 2013 numbers thanks to Japan!

Vita's first 2 weeks:

2014- 197,609
2013- 131,840


It's also up in Europe

Pretty bad drop for Wii U. Maybe Wii Fit U could help save things, but Nintendo seems to have given up on advertising any of their casual titles, so probably not.

I think the Wii U is being undertracked by a decent amount because Wii Fit U was released Jan 10 in the USA on retail. That had to push the Wii U sales above 70k.


or maybe people dont give a crap about WIi fit anymore

I hope the Wii____ series is dead. Then Nintendo can get those developers working on better games.



I really don't think Titanfall will put the X1 on top for even one week. Perhaps in America but not in Europe and definitely not in Japan.



 

The PS5 Exists. 


Not veru good numbers for X1 i Europe, but man those are some big drops from the Holidays.



Well I'd like to think that I got at least some part in the adjustments with my "UK is overtracked" thread. :D

2012/13 seem pretty accurate in the UK now, 2011 is still over by about a million though, so maybe there's more adjustments incoming.

About the numbers: PS4 still going strong, great. The rest is kinda underwhelming, X1 weak in Europe, 3DS down YoY if not by much, Wii U crashing, 7th gen dropping fast and the Vita is doing horrible outside of Japan.

If PS4 had been released in Japan, it would have sold between 33K and 58K, and the PS4 sales would climb up to 221 K - 246 K range.

This means, with Japan included, and despite the supply issues in US and elsewhere, PS4 would already start selling more than twice as much as XB1 globally.

PS4 sales / XB1 sales (With Japan included)

Max => 245849 / 106010 = 2.32  (30% - 70%)

Min => 220951 / 106010 = 2.08  (32% - 68%)



Playstation 5 vs XBox Series Market Share Estimates

Regional Analysis  (only MS and Sony Consoles)
Europe     => XB1 : 23-24 % vs PS4 : 76-77%
N. America => XB1 :  49-52% vs PS4 : 48-51%
Global     => XB1 :  32-34% vs PS4 : 66-68%

That may happen after demand=supply... this week drop is mainly because of antecipated stock for december making availability for 2 or 3 weeks of January really scarce.
