Forums - Sales - Forbes "Nintendo Is Beating Microsoft In Video Game Hardware Sales" (Uses VGChartz # :D)

Actually X360+X1 are beating Wii u+Wii. Odd article.

Since he added home consoles with handhelds consoles, why not add for Microsoft the Windows Phone and Surface tablet sales?

This is not Forbes

These are blogs!!

....and this one is particulary stupid.

 

 

 

I just reported asking if they can make it a rule to differentiate the two, it's basically a free pass to post what you like. Cos god only knows that some forbes contributers post utter crap sometime!



 

So they combined 8th gen and 7th gen consoles...then threw a handheld in for a crutch? Why isn't this just called 3DS>Xbox?

Funny thing is that isn't even the case right now.

3DS is doing 25k~ a week in the US not 40k. Europe is likely similar, and Japan is dropping below 30k.

After Titanfall and release in more countries XB1 should be beating every Nintendo system.

If handhelds are taken into consideration, Nintendo has never NOT been beating Microsoft in hardware sales.



Well at least it is more accurate than most articles posted about Nintendo these days.

How do you know what 3DS numbers are? The only solid numbers are the Japan ones, the others you are purely guessing?
