Sony has to say it doubled or sold more than the others combine... unless 360 sales were strong for Whatch Dogs and PS3 audience jumped to PS4´s...

I'm starting to think the game business is basically going to be ...

1.) Mobile/tablets - For casuals/simpler/easy to play games

2.) Playstation 4 - For home console, big budget experiences that people want on their 50 inch screen.

3.) And a little bit of 3DS for a declining dedicated handheld market.

And that's it.

So Wii U massively overtracked?

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

For a normal game, how frontloaded is the hardware sales boost? Most of it within two days, or not?

Dark_Feanor: Please just stop spouting non-sense... no NPD thread used data from Thuway, it's creamsugar that have been feeding us, and you already tried to say she isn't reliable the last 2 months, and also tried to say Amazon isn't reliable on the top seller list (but used stock on Amazon to say PS4 lost momentum), please don't make other X1 fans embarassed on a thread that have everything to be peacefull.
