Quite disappointing.

Shitty numbers for everything, except Vita since it had little to no expectations

You're building a falacy. The pre-order availability of the WiiU/MK8 doesn't really answer anything with regards to the "two days vs. three weeks" issue here. If pre-orders (not available from all retailers) were the answer to everything, then the supply drain on the MK8 bundle in major retailers wouldn't make any sense. We know that there's a missing 4x hardware movement in the the states that's obviously not apparent in these numbers as 60k/4 != 30k.

Wait until June.

Pretty sure the 4.1x hardware boost is accounted for in these May numbers.  We got that the MK bundle was 6.6% of software sales.  That puts it at ~25k.  If the sales were evenly distributed it would be 60k/7.1.  That would be about 8.5k for the first three weeks and then 34.5k for the MK week.  If the 4.1x was the week after then it would be a minimum of 100k due to the known number for the MK bundles.  That just doesn't seem remotely realistic.

actually, since ps4 is under 200k you can narrow down the xbox max limit a bit.

if 360 is at 50k  then:   90k > xbox one

if 360 is at 60k then:     80k > xbox one

but  xbone one is certainly less than 90k and even less if ps4 didn't sell 199k.

it says 200k>PS4>170k. so PS4 sold anywhere between 170k and 200k. An average of that would be 185k. It think that is around exactly how much the PS4 sold.

Another simple way to do this would be to take the pie chart, put in the one numebr we know for ceratin being the wiiU number whereever its supposed to fit. Get how much % of that pie it is, then we will thus know the total number of consoles sold... the rest is easy from there.

It can't be accounted for in the May numbers. I highly doubt the WiiU was selling at 8.5k until the last TWO days of the month.

I really don't know how these are shitty number for the PS4. If it sold 185k in just one territory in what is usually a slow month and sold around the same/more in all of europe then it is avaraging around 400k-500k worldwide. I really can't imagine how that is a bad thing.
