PS4 Overtracked for sure by this site pretty falling each week for awhile. Watch Dogs came out on PS3 too so why would people go buy a 500 dollar console for a game released on the older system.


PS4 is actually undertracked most tiimes.


Really? NPD was lower on both Xbox and Playstation then here. Plus this isnt including Japan's numbers yet

Do you think when Japan s comes WiiU will still behind. Im saying another 60- 70 000 in Japan while PS4 stays around 6.


This was the case just in the month of April... PS4 was undertracked in March, February and also January if I remember correctly, when compared to NPD.

And I'm not sure I understand you, but are you predicting 70k for Wii U in Japan? Because the official numbers from Famitsu and Media Create are already out and the console sold around 19k there for the week...

Yep. This entire year has been chock full of VGC heavily overtracking XB1, and sometimes undertracking PS4 (though they have been much closer of late IIRC).

Watch NPD come and these horrible XB1 numbers are actually optimistic, lol. I know WiiU will outsell XB1, but I had bet that it would not be substantial. It would be hilarious if the WiiU>XB1 gap was well into the 5 digit range.



I blame Nintendo and Sony for the situation in Japan. They should have had a tighter grip on their market.

can someone explain why ps4 got a boost an x1 did not ?


Thank you! reason why i think its way overtracked. Look at the sales comparison software wise pretty close in numbers but one gets a huge and doesnt Hmmmmmm?



The MK8 plot thickens : 480+350= 805. The 1.2m increasingly appear to be shipped. And depending on Europe + VGC overtracking Nintendo games as usual, it could be under 1m FW.

Anyway WatchDogs is the clear victor. Even Watchdogs One outsold MK8.

You do realize Watchdogs released THREE days earlier, right?

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.

Did you not see Media Create sales yesterday? Wii U sold 19k in Japan on the week of MK8 release. Many people bought PS4 last year for the cross-gen multiplatform games for better resolution and performance. Also the PS4 version was stated to be much better than the PS3 version by reviewers.

So MK8 will overtake Watchdogs in week 2?
