Forums - Sales - April 2014 NPD Thread!

So, if 115k was in USA, around 200k WW in April???

That's very worrying....A 100$ pricecut is not enough to reverse this...

There is still a price cut, and I don't believe the NPD numbers are right, it can't be that low, maybe 5-10k less per week, maybe, but this?


I know it's hard to accept but yeah... its off that bad. Why do you think MS has been so proactive with sales, bundles and price cuts so quickly after launch?

MS manning up and showing numbers even in adversity. Let that be a lesson...

And Sony doesn't give numbers, even if they are ahead.  Your point?

@ OP

Damn, guess we have our evidence that MS was getting the word out to combat NPD numbers.  May is going to probably be <100K.  Of course, given the Kinectless One's position site's charts, I doubt it's going to improve much.

Probably, oh god thats really low.

looks like vgchartz over tracked by 100k



If MK8 had released middle of the month Wii U may have been able to be ahead of X1 May NPD, but its late May release probably doesn't make this possible

VGC: XB1 - 217k, NPD - 115k


Terrible...


and people were upset when we called bullshit on the vgc numbers. 


Or maybe, just maybe NPD got the numbers wrong, think about that, it's definitely possible.

go take your wishful thinking somewhere else. 



But, if you took Next-gen only, says "inFAMOUS Second Son was the top selling next gen software title in April"

These people think that a 3.5 million install base should have an easy time competing with 46-150 million install bases.

Meanwhile in 8 weeks Infamous SS has reached the same numbers as XB1's highest selling exclusive (in half a year) Forza 5.
