The only way to compare it adequately is by number of VGC weeks. If he's comparing it differently he's doing it wrong...

DEM PS4 Sales, totally overshadowed the awesome numbers of WII U!
It's close to the Vita now: 8.1 Vs 8.3, maybe in the next two weeks it'll surpass it.

We have a new GOTG!!   :)

PS4 is the console to be on for third party games this generation. Having better version of the game coupled with exclusive marketing and extra content did wonders for Watch Dogs. 1,8M vs 900K on XOne.

The industry seems healthy enough for me. All we'll ever need is more games like WD or MK to drive the sales, and smaller games to keep the industry alive and kicking.

i wonder when the thread about this will pop up. 

sorry, but GOTG belongs to Don't Starve. 

Agreed but theres still only a week in it.

i'm not surprised

I'm amazed by Mario Kart!! Hope it sells another 1m+ next week because it's a full week!

VGC has the XO Watch Dogs outselling the PS3/360 versions combined, but only by a small amount. Would have thought XO WD would have broken 925K.

Incredible WD, with a very good HW boost on the already leader PS4.
Excellent boost for Wii U, that grabs 2nd place WW and in each region (in Japan being also 1st home console) thanks to MK8, that manages to grab SW 2nd place WW too, despite the American betrayal.
I almost never think XBOne could be undrtracked, but this time I do, if WD gave a very good boost to PS4, and MK8 an incredible one to Wii U, we should expect a better boost for XBOne too. Unless a very large part of WD audience on XBOne coincide with the Titanfall one, so already owning that console.

This said, excellent week for HW overall and incredible for SW, it's really nice to see something different from CoD moving huge numbers, and in a period far slower than BF and Xmas. Home console and PC gaming are still alive.

The only bad news of the week is portable HW numbers, both 3DS and PSV: both Ninty and Sony MUST do alot more to save their products and that market. Yes, their destiny is to shrink and cede part of their market to mobiles, but doing things right there's still place for two dedicated portable platforms, mobiles' flood of shallow games and lack of dedicated control will always leave a lot of users unsatisfied, enough to keep a decent sized niche alive.
