Big time 3DS overtrack IMO ... VGC needs to get on top of that, 48k for a week in early February when it sold 97k total in January? I don't buy it.


New game came out and 48k isnt US its 43k. So it went up from avg week in jan 25k to 43k (maybe just 1k-5k overtracked)

With adjustments the XB1 sold 301k in January, so Joe lost his bet after all.

I can't believe it was even that close!!! wtf happened to the X1

Holidays ended, the hardcore Xbox fans got their console and now the effect of being $100 more expensive (and generally being a much smaller brand than PS in most countries) has kicked in, that happened.

OT: Doesn't Vgchartz normally adjust closer towards NPD numbers?

maybe adjustments will happen again for next weeks, i think it happened like that once before.

Also we dont get vita #s for NPD or do they just not care?

the rise of 3DS is purely from the reason that Bravely Default have a good opening week :v

Maybe the hype on these forums are distorting VGCs job at trying to give a more modest analysis on that particular genre.  

Well, we can't say that Phil Fish was wrong about japanese games going into the shitters. 

I don't follow.

I think NPD Vita numbers were around 17k, so Vgchartz were pretty much spot on with them.

You weren't there when a fallout happened between Phil Fish and his comments about japanese games ?
