Wow Vgchartz is very close to that number! Good tracking guys


Not really. Vgchartz ajusted their numbers when sony anounced 6kk+ 5 weeks ago. So in 5 weeks Vgchartz tracked 815k while PS4 sold 1kk. They completelly undertraked PS4 sales.

2 million over estimates. Wonder what they will have projected for this time next year. 20 million by April 2015?

lol, I wonder how VGC numbers would look if they kept their OWN, original numbers without making ANY adjustments to reflect NPD, chart-track, media create and official company announcements like this one. Hint : totally off

This just in, no other tracking agency retroactively adjusts their data. Thanks mutantclown.

Goddamn. PS4 continues to be undertracked by VGC. People saying they are only 1-2% off are simply wrong. They have adjusted their numbers now to Sony's probably around 5 times. So let's say they are off by 100-150k but that is 100-150k of 1m since 6m was Sony's last announced milestone.

 

So 7.5m shipped for the fiscal year??


so 10%+ margin?

Yeah 10% ain't so bad for a 5 week tracking period. It would be interesting to know where that 10% is though, which is the only reason I'd like to see adjustments. In terms of actual tracking performance it's good enough.
