Those are crazy numbers for PS4 and Wii U. Shame about Xbone though, it's just selling so bad.

I expected Wii U to be around 150k along with PS4, well that's history now... and I guess this watchdog performance on PS4 will make 3rd party publisher sit up and take notice.. what benefit they could have on PS4... yes looking at you EA and Respawn.. now let see how Destiny and AC unity first next gen Assassin does.


If these numbes are true, ea will be really mad to know Watch Dogs PS4 sold more in 1 week than Titanfall One in 3months


Watch dogs look a lot more interesting then Titaanfall so i'm not surprised



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

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.

I actually think wii u is overtracked i know MK8 is a big games but still a 500%+ boost it's too much i think

I'm starting to worry about the 3DS, pokemon is coming out in november so it's probably nothing but still, being outsold by not ONE but TWO consoles is horrible

 

EDIT: and now i see it's been adjusted down by 1+ million, OMG it is worse than i imagined


I love the Mona Lisa signature, its so true!

i don't expect the kinectless xb1 to have an impact at all, except maybe some countries? there have been better value bundles (like console+tf+kinect) at the same price, why would people who skipped on that jump on a bundle that has nothing, at the same price?
might boost some in the US cause i think this bundle was only around at this price in europe (so expect EU numbers to stay terribad).

Majority of Causals moved to smartphones so they won't buy an xbox one for Kinect and hardcore gamers don't care about Kinect so they want pay an extra 100 dollars for something they will never use it without Kinect they could be interested in Xbox one

3DS below 80k? At least Wii U made up for it.



Yep.

I really hope Mario Kart 8's effect last longer than Watch Dogs! Then the Wii U will have at least 1 week at #1!


It might just happen next week, in my opinion. Watch Dogs is a success, but it won't be a phenomenal success. The hype is falling pretty fast, while MK8 turned out to be as good as expected.

You are right about MK8, but I'm not sure it will be enough. MK8 is bigger and will have better legs, but the Wii U got a tremendous 4x boost that will be hard to sustain. The PS4 can sell 110K without any boost, which is enough to beat a Wii U with a 2x boost from MK8 on week 2.

Could still happen, and anyway such long sellers is a great thing for the console.

XB1 cant be true. im calling undertracked.


likewise

and ps4 seems severely overtracked.

But I thought you said VGChartz was so reliable with incredibly low margins of error. How can anything by "severely overtracked" then?

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.

No the numbers dont appear to be shipped but sold. 480+350=/=805. Always have something smart to say about nintendi smh...

Here the numbers currently known is 350k for japan (a source saying 404k with digital) and US 480k (this figure doesn't include Sunday). Thats potentially 884k right there. Then add UK number which is over 54k and now you got 939k at least.

Add the number 939k with the rest of Europe + Canada + Rest of the World and you'll get way over 1mil. Oh yeah and then you have to realize all these numbers except from Japan have no Sunday sales included or digital.

It still surprises me how little physical copies sell on PC. It may not be long before PC games aren't even available physically.

PC doesn't get much space at retailers anymore, and it's just easier for many to grab the game digitally.  It really doesn't surprise me much nowadays.
