I'm fairly sure NPD has shown Ps4 ahead every week. if you can find sources that show NPD(not VGC) showing ps4 wasn't ahead every week please do.

If you're gonna provide me sources please make sure the links work. All are "not found"


There is an extra space at the end of the link. Just delete it and it will work. Not only that but I provided you with the most important sources. Sony. Microsoft. But if you weren't so lazy you can find all this information with a simple Google search (or click the charts here). Hell, he even provided you with the article names.

Last time i checked the xbox one outsold the ps4 several times on several weeks and it was still $500. I have been checking the sales every week and i  saw the xbox one selling more. The ps4 sometimes outsold it on several weeks also. It is pretty amazing how the xbox one outsold it even after the higher price tag so that tells me once the new sku rolls out then the xbox will be back on top or very close. 

I was under the impression that the only time it outsold the PS4 was December and that was due to stock issues... so not sure how you got that it sold more on a weekly basis other than that? unless i missed something.

(Please dont tell me you used VGC weekly data to state that it sold more over the course of a few weeks in a month and then got outsold by the PS4 when it was all tallied up).

On the subject, I think the person who mentioned summer/world cup.. that will have an impact, probably less USA so than rest of world, but gaming always dropped off at this time, so unless MS have some big - AAA game is out in June/July... sales wont go up by much imho. I think this is why Sony will have a few HD games coming out in the next month to counter this before the September spikes come along. No suprise that TLOU is rumoured to be coming in June, it's a dead month for gaming usually.

Rumours that a RDR or GTAV port would certainly help MS's cause if its in the summer and exclusive to their platform for one or two months. That's effectively what they need to do if they intend to close that gap. I mean in Titanfall month the gap was what 60k... that's crazy.

I'd like to see your numbers and your sources saying the ps4 has been outselling the xbox one every single week starting from this year. The charts have been saying the xbox one sold more than ps4 and vice versa. Please state your sources for claiming the ps4 sold better every single week starting from this year....i am waiting.

I'm using NPD figures and though they don't mention weekly, anyone who thinks that the XBO is beating the PS4 in multiple weeks, but some magic then means that the PS4 suddenly finds double or 60k in the final week or two frankly shouldnt be taken seriously. NPD has been showing PS4 significantly beating the XBO most months this year, with the exception of one where it was quite close due to stock issues. 

So that is my source, that and common sense. Please state *your* source claiming that XBO is beating PS4 in multiple weeks and PS4 pulls it back by 60k or more in the subsequent weeks... (please dont say VGC is your source)... I am waiting.

You do know the NPD isn't as reliable either, right?

It's more reliable..so reliable corporations around the world depend on it and VGC changes its numbers to refelct it. It' also doesn't change the fact that all you asked for was a source and several were given including MS and Sony pretty much saying it themselves. There is also no evidence that says otherwise, even VGC went back and adjusted their numbers to refelct it.

You said isnt as reliable... Those are comparative terms. What are you comparing? Vgc to NPD? If so lololololol no use talking

They probably did because i was checking back on the sales graphs and just saw that the xbox one sold more than the ps4 just in 3 weeks but that was not what i saw. I check them weekly (even if you say they aren't reliable) and i know what i saw. It was several times when xbox one outsold it. I dont care if you trust the charts on this site because i know what i saw. 

$400 cheaper than $500/$450

It doesn't say thay anymore..thats the point..They recieved new data and adjusted their methods and corrected their old mistakes. There hasn't been a single week this year where it actually happened. It was simply a mistake due to the fact that they overtracked the xb1 at times 100% or more and undertracked the ps4. Their data was incomplete at the time and now that it is more complete they know what NPD knew and what Sony and Microsoft knew and that is the fact that xb1 didn't outsell ps4 any week or month this year.

Germany:

No. 339 at Amazon.de Bestsellers. For comparison, PS4 is #5, Wii U (Mario Kart Bundle) is #37, PS3 12GB is #131, Xbox 360 250Gb is #148 and Xbox One with Kinect (Titanfall Bundle, discounted to 449 €) is #230.

Besides that, it has already been discounted to 377,53 € - one day before release, seen here: http://geizhals.de/microsoft-xbox-one-a1114008.html

Still no chance at all in germany.
