I love the guys at GAF. I finally found a bunch of people who like mobile gaming instead of just shitting on it left and right.

 

It's also good to have talks about just games, without the sales talk.

Yeah, I think that's what they don't appreciate. Gaff talks about everything under the sun related to gaming and occasionally talks about sales figures, whilst people here, who may talk about all sorts of game related stuff, are here primarily for sales talk. The ironic thing is that this forum gives VGC a hell of a lot more stick than they do LOL.

Would have loved to have seen that. ioi > gaf

I remember reading a 2009 thread where ioi simply destroyed GAF! I wish I could remember the thread's title, because that thread was..... gold!

Yeah I like GAF as well I wasn't trying to bash it. Honestly they are better than us when it comes to just gaming discussion.

I was simply saying I think the average user here is more clued in on sales trends.

Sorry for getting thread Off Topic.


Sales talk wise, yeah, I like the group here much more. I fully agree.

Yeah he said "Sony fired 35000 people since 2008" because Sony indeed fired 35000 people since 2008. That was clearly against the rules.
BAN THIS &!#§%

 

Never change VGC, never change!

 

What's your problem? Does hearing bad things about Microsoft make your ass hurt that much? Grow the fuck up.
Edit: You got what you wanted.

Last 5 Years, same Quarter, with just the 360 -

08/09 - 1.2
09/10 - 1.5
10/11 - 1.7
11/12 - 1.1
12/13 - 1.0

1.1 Million combined isnt exactly good...

Damn...that's not great at all.

Overshipping maybe?


Yeah its been overshipped since the beginning of the year. Everyone has just been sitting on stock.

Pretty much as expected then. Still, plenty of time to bounce back and it seems to be doing so a little!



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

its hard to say it was really a cliff.   the ps4 had a week in  june before the launch, and it was about 70k difference over 5 weeks.  the new sku certainly grabbed some attention,  but its also been over a month since then, and we are past mid july.   just figured it would be interesting if we could get on update on what he has seen.

 

edit:  id also like to hear about the destiny bundle.  on online retailers its doing awesome, would be curious to see how its doing at a retail level.


Unfortunatly I dont comment much on non official statements anymore do to the stress that comes with the territory.

For example I heard a rumor of a major Wii U title being delayed but Im not going to comment on it due to certain posters waiting for anything I say to be wrong and then attack me over it.


ah okay i respect that :)  guess ill have to wait until october for NPD.. lol

the destiny bundle has been higher than the xb1 on amazon, since it was announced. if that interest is seen in stores to, that would have crazy numbers..



I am Torgo, I take care of the place while the master is away.

"Hes the clown that makes the dark side fun.. Torgo!"

Ha.. i won my bet, but i wasnt around to gloat because im on a better forum!  See ya guys on Viz

I was expecting 900k total, 600k XOne and 300K 360s.

Now put those numbers at 750k XOne and 350K 360s.

Not bad for a failure lying machine.


It's better than what I thought too, but it's still awful.

They overshipped through the holidays and early January.

Or to be more specific, retailers ordered too many. Nobody really expected Xbox One sales to fall as flat as they did after the early holiday rush.

Nope.. I'm talking about a 2009 VGChartz thread made by ioi where he asks if anyone had NeoGAF accounts which could be given to him!
