There's something I don't understand



These numbers mean (One + 360 Vs Ps4) or (One vs 360 Vs Ps3 + Ps4) ?


one + 360 software > ps4 + ps3 +wii u+ wii + (maybe) handheld software

No, that's an ipossibilty given how the SW is lined up on the charts.  Nope, seems more like MS went pathetic and put the Xbox family against the PS4.  Bravo, MS, bravo.

It could be X1+X360>PS4+PS3, but to think it could be tops all is laughable... When that happened Sony were straight "PS4+PSV tops all combined"

I've already seen Aquamarine posting in the Gaf thread? Does she even have access to the numbers, or is she simply good at doing math and analysing? I think it's Creamsugar who drops hints and numbers and he usually shows up way later unfortunately.


I think they both leak... creamsugar is the enigmatic one isn't he? Aquamarine doesn't post every month I think.

We need ethomaz back.


I think you could call him enigmatic. Aquamarine is in the Gaf thread every month though, not sure if leaking anything, doubt it, but the Gaf thread is moving at such a crazy pace that I'm reading like every 10th page lol


At least here I can follow and read every comment.

To clarify, thats Mario Kart 8 NOT bundled correct??



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

As far as I remember NPD doesn't include bundled SW in the SW number totals.

Let's just move on from that unpleasantness I suppose...

No, you must answer the rumors that are now flying around like crazy.  He tried to reveal that you are a "piece of shit."  Now, answer this question.  Are you human, or are you, in fact, a piece of feces bent on world domination?  The world must know!

Did you all notice that Major Nelson has disappeared.... Vanished..... Unlike the old days of NPD announcements!!!


Looks like he was working on the Xbox Live server issues earlier so he's got his hands full.

Where do you live ? (France for me)

At least we know numbers for nintendo, but nothing for the rest... meh, we don't even know if the wiiu did more or less than Xone, nothing else.

Someone already said it but it's germany.

Nintendo numbers are fine and all, but I want to know PS4 and X1 as well.

You should just move to USA or a further country so you have it earlier in the morning... or russia so you can see it during work =]]

Well most of the time I'm pretty happy with where I live but everytime these things come around I get annoyed, same thing with Sony press conferences when they are in the US, I have to stay awake for ever for those too. Worst offender: The PS4 launch event, I waited till 6 or 7am for that and all I got out of it was a completely useless UC4 teaser.
