Also from GAF:

Close to 57K units for the WiiU.


Overtracked again by VGC it seems like. 

Again? You make it sound like it was overtracked every single month :) Last month  it was undertracked by 120k!

Sony is going to run away with this gen. Nintendo/MS both made the stupid mistake of betting on expensive controller gimmicks (tablet pad and Kinect 2.0) and are going to pay dearly for it.



57k for Wii U would mean it's flatter than a pancake.



Isn't the smoke and mirror delightfull? So much useless numbers to cover a nice selling just because it wasn't top of month.

Azzanation: "PS5 wouldn't sold out at launch without scalpers."

Man, March NPD is going to very interesting.

So how does PS4 290K compare to past january system sales?



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Good good, my pessimistic predictions are on track to becoming true. Xbox one is shockingly low though. Didn't expect that kind of drop already. It will be interesting to see what ps4 sales stabalize to once supply issues are fixed. 



Low XBox One numbers are numbers that Nintendo would love to have for the Wii U, lol.



How is Xbox One selling more software with such a considerable gap in hardware sales from the PS4 ?



Gaf has Xbone at 145k
PS4 at 290K
