Surprised by the Vita numbers but good for the little handheld.

There was rumor that the vita bundle was postponed from march and since than the stock was not replenished. It seems that was true after all.



"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."

So now we can say Ms doesn't always give numbers even when they aren't good.

Yep.  Wasn't someone boasting about that last time?  Someone who's not here?  Hmmm. 

And as I was thinking, since they had no problems announcing 115K, the numbers must be much lower and below 100K.  And it looks like the PS4 must have beat them by at least 100K, as well as being 2+:1.

Weak ass PS4 sales, considering MLB and Watch Dogs.


Well last month it sold ~199k.

May usually have lower number and Ps4 probably sold ~190 which means that the drop was too small.


Yeah April had no games though. There was FFXIV and what? Limited Trials Fusion retail release at the end of the month?

May we've got 3 games worth mentioning with Watch Dogs selling very nice software wise, and PS4 is close to flat or quite a bit down? That's bad and June will be even a lot more worse, unless there are a lot of people who waited till E3 to make a decision which console to choose and finally jump to next gen. Outlook is bad until September.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

I just don’t get Watch Dogs numbers.

So US NPD is 1.25M plus the differential for North America as a whole is what 10% more so that would be 1.375M. We have Europe numbers at 1.07M and Ubi said it sold total to consumers of 4M (400k of which are PC)

400k + 1.375M + 1.07M = 2.845M

So does NPD track digital sales as well? I can’t remember.


Ubisoft stated Shipped numbers like many said. Those numbers wont add up near 4mil. Maybe 3mil-3.4mil First 7 days or something including Digital

This is bullshit. I was like one of two people in the thread saying it was shipped. I was even called a Nintendo fanboy!

I'm pretty sure those are hardware numbers. I mean, what else could they possibly represent?
