We can see soon. With NPD (2 days of sales) and tomorrows Media Create/Famitsu, we can estimate if the 1.2mil is solded or shipped

Edit: So for Ex, if US sold 300k and im japan it sold 300k, its safe to say 1.2mil figure is shipped.

So far we know just these 2 for MK8 sales....

UK: 54k-110k

Japan: 300k+

Are you applying 666% to 10k europe sales? because that increase is only for UK and Wii U is around 2k accoring to VGC for last week. I dont think Europe will get such big bump and i expect around 30-40k mostly for Europe(15k+ for UK). 

And USA preorders are approx 300k according to VGC, so this can be around 400k+ for USA.

So far we have around 700-800k.

USA - 400k+

UK - 15k+

JAPAN - 300k+


No, you got it wrong im doing MK8 software sales for UK. Its over 54k there but less than 110k. Its the 2nd Highest MK debut, 

Also my estimates were an example. Hiska found out that japan sales will be around 350k maybe even close to 400k FW.

Then add US that potentially can add another 400k. Thats 750k-800k there and not counting the rest of Americas +Europe + Rest of the World.

Does that include digital?



Something...Something...Games...Something

Well deserved for this masterpiece. I hope it sells well in Japan too.



And people said it wouldn't reach 5 million...

Its an estimate, for japan though its around 350k or higher based on a reliable source (retail only) and UK its over 54k (this is only Friday+Sat sales as uk weekly does Sun-Sat weeks)

Amazing numbers, especially considering how much negativity the game was receiving. But I listened to BenV said, so this didn't surprise me as much as it probably should.



And just like clockwork Ubisoft releases their number after Nintendo releases MK8. Pretty hilarious Ubi!

Is this shipped+digital?

Yes it is and it always will be unless a publishers is citing a tracking service.

They are citing tracking services (asterisks). And they said sold-through.

No they are not. The aterisks were all for internal rewards and common sense (no other game will have come close, even if Mario Kart's 1.2 million shipment sold out). The only source for the 4 million is how much Ubisoft sold through to retailers (they are Ubisoft's customers, not you). 

If you at the press release itself, you'll see they use tracking services and internal data to determine they're the number one selling new IP. None of it is explicitly tied to the 4 million sold/shipped figure.

This is not shipped. Theyve already cleared 6 million shipped

Where is BenV to give us an idea of which version sold the most?


PS4 > XB1 > X360 > PS3 > PC


Wow, I thought it would sell best on last gen consoles. O_o

 Now for the question many want to know, if you don't mind...

 

Is it PS4>XB1 or PS4>>XB1?


.

not surprsing since it was advertasied as a ps game


I doubt thats the reason why it sold more on PS4.



Intel Core i7 3770K [3.5GHz]|MSI Big Bang Z77 Mpower|Corsair Vengeance DDR3-1866 2 x 4GB|MSI GeForce GTX 560 ti Twin Frozr 2|OCZ Vertex 4 128GB|Corsair HX750|Cooler Master CM 690II Advanced|

It's a good game, that is getting lots of hate. Glad they were able to overcome it.



Thanks jlmurph!
