I wish only they both disclaim their sales every time. It would be much easier for everybody not to waite for the financial reports. |
Sony doesnt care about console wars like gamers on vgchartz.

Looks like MLB the show did very well in MAy.
The new consoles also continued to show momentum as hardware sales jumped 95% over last May
Publishers had been feeling the effects of next-gen software not selling fast enough to offset the declines of the previous-gen consoles, but that may now be changing, judging by The NPD Group's May US video game sales report. Total industry sales were way up, climbing 52 percent to $586 million. This was driven not only by the continued adoption of Xbox One and PS4, as hardware skyrocketed 95 percent to $187 million, but also by a sizable 57 percent increase in console software sales to $274 million (PC software brings that total up to $284 million).
Ubisoft's new hit title Watch Dogs, which sold 4 million worldwide in its first week, was atop the charts with its multiple SKUs, but Nintendo's single-SKU Mario Kart 8 was also a factor, placing second on the chart - impressive considering it's only available to Wii U's somewhat limited installed base. Sony's MLB 14: The Show and Bethesda's Wolfenstein: The New Order also helped drive industry revenues.
Here's the complete top ten list from NPD:
