I can see how Sony is not worried about the rest of 2014 despite The Order: 1886 being moved back to early 2015. The PS4 has such a huge edge with multiplats in terms of resolution/framerate and marketing that the multiplats act like exclusives.


Yeah at this point Sony does not have to do anything to impress, 3rd party and marketing are doing that job just fine. Come 2015 and that is when they start playing.


If the multiplats sell that much PS4s this year, when the AAA exclusives release (who said Uncharted 4 ?), it might get dirty.



Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

PS4... Holy shit. Wii U did amazing too, but sadly still couldn't top the charts, still a valiant effort though!


That is only 2 days of Mario kart in there.

People always forget that US software goes up with those too.

MK8 first week: 480k

i cant see it... 480k in just US?

I can't see anything either I was wondering if I was the only one.

Don't use Chrome, never works for me in that.


I am using IE11 and still can't see anything. 

Anyhow I expected bigger MK8 sales for the US. That figure is 100k more than Japan.

Then again only 13 of my Wii friends from the US bought the disc, the other 27 downloaded it because they got it early due to time zones.

hover with your mouse over the graph, there is no line because the game has only had 1 week.


Got it thanks!

So Im going to do a comparison on nintendo 1.2mil shipped/digital (3days) later but so far we have this... (No digital either)

Japan: 325k-350k 

UK: At least 54k (Not Including Sunday)

US: 480k (Not Including Sunday)

So far we have at least around 900k. Im going to say that 1.2mil figure might be sold if VGC numbers are correct (US numbers)



Not bad at all...I was thinking 175K for Wii U, with Japan being higher and USA being lower but I suppose I won't complain...it got there anyways ^.^

XBO gets almost no boost from WD though? Seems a little strange. Maybe its compensating for overtracking before or something

nice wii u numbers! but still couldn't topple the ps4... this was probably nintendo's best chance to do that too...


Of course not, but that is a nice boost (as expected) for the WiiU. The gap would be bigger if Sony had any games in Japan.

~25% boost for X1.

Watch Dogs (US)

PS4: 977k
X1: 590k
360: 286k
PS3: 179k
PC: 40k

Damn, that would mean more than a half of the total sales were digital ?

Not really because there are still Europe numbers to account for.

yurop? wtf is this?

That actually makes a lot of sense. I was wondering why I couldn't see some of the things I did before.


that is realy low

So i assume this means the PS4 has definitely surpassed 8 million by now? 2 more weeks and it goes past Vita i guess


It definitely did. But I think the PS4 numbers will slow down this year, since there aren't really big exclusives realinsing this year...

Except if the 3rd parties manage to sell consoles.


Destiny? And watch dogs did move PS4s


True, but I think Destiny have a bigger influence on XBO sales. Bungie is especially loved by Xbox fans.


Dont think so :

 

- Lot of xbox fans moved to PS4 considering the sales.

- The game will likely be bundled with PS4 like watch dogs so be a much better system seller.

 

 

 

NPD will be interesting.

 



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m
