Looks like WiiU is still overtracked for last week/month but it's getting there! (100k~)

28k~ for WiiU in US seems very odd tho, even if June is slightly above May (80k~) that only leaves 12k for the remainder 4 weeks.


at least we have e3 week/ kinectless xbox one first week which should give some boosts :)

I predict around 80k for WiiU in June, and 200k+ for PS4 and XB1.

What the hell is up with XBone numbers? When did the price drop actually take effect?

well this generation is painful
2 consoles considered dead(none dead last gen)
only 1 console getting over 100k as its average(when 7th gen all 3 were usually )
1 that might be dead if its price cut doesnt help
and 1 that has passed its peak year(somewhat like the wii)
8th gen is aweful :P

Too early to say. Both PS3 and 360 averaged below 100k during their first full year, nothing new here (although WiiU is second year so it is bad). Xbox One is not considered dead either, next week is the new SKU which could have a big impact. I don't expect the XB1 to get above 100k on average but the baseline should improve. 

PS4 is still doing quite a bit better than both the PS3 and 360 as well, its legs should take it to higher than those.

While this gen isn't as good as the last one, it certainly isn't awful or dead (yet).


i just dont like it when about half your consoles could be considered dead(if the xbox one price drop doesnt help then halo is the last thing that could help if that doesnt then i believe its dead)



Bets:

(Won)Bet with TechoHobbit: He(Techno) says 10 million by January 1,2014 I say 9 million by then. Winner gets 2 weeks of sig control.

(Lost)Bet with kinisking: I say Ps4 will win April NPD while he says Xbox One will win it; winner gets 1 week of avatar control.

June 9th, was announced mid may, so I guess some people held off? Sales were gonna be bad either way tho.

June 9th and it was announced in early/mid May so obviously May is going to tank.

I agree, but lets try to keep optimistic while we can.

Remember this week was before e3 

E3 is not going to increase the baseline for the Wii U or any other console. Software will and until the Wii U gets more releases, sales will once again slide down.

so hyrule warriors(wont do anything except japan)

bayonetta 2 will do a little boost in NA abd EU and a ok boost in Japan

Toad no idea

Smash will be the biggest booster since its an anticipated holiday game

well this wont end well :P

Yeah that sounds about right. I think the Wii U will do pretty good in the holidays though but I don't think there is enough to push people to buy a Wii U outside the holiday season. So I'm optimisstic about the holidays but I am expecting the worst for the next couple of months.

The US database is updated.

Knock yourself out.

I already posted it but maybe people didn't see.

MK8 - 120k

WD PS4 - 143k

WD X1 - 81k

I saw it, I just want to see it all in rankings to see more than just those three.
