Sony consoles are outselling MS consoles by more than 3:1.

1.1 M XBox One+ 360 VS 3.5 M PS4+PS3

So 85M software sales (home consoles + handhelds) for Sony and 15.2M (DS = 0.63M, 3DS = 8.57M, Wii = 1.6M, WiiU = 4.4M) for Nintendo.

So, VGC has PS4 at approx. 1.7m and PS3 at 0.7m for the quarter.
I doubt that they overshipped more than 1m, so probably much undertracked in EU.

As many of us suspected.



 

The PS5 Exists.

oh and to put things into perspective:

3.5m PS3+4 shipped vs 1.1m 360/XB1 in the same quarter. 

So as I said in previous thread, MS have too many Xbox one consoles in the channel and new kinectless xbox one did absolutely nothing.

are you suggesting they sold everything they shipped?

are you suggesting that supply is as tight as it was at the end of last quarter?

how about you put your expectation of sold and shipped up here instead of taking easy jabs.


Why are you defensively replying to every comment in the thread? It looks ridiculous btw

Considering that VGC measures European numbers in proportion to other regions and it undertracked the PS3 quite badly in Japan despite the existence of Media Create, yeah...

$419 million net income yay profit! ($265 million is for controlling stock owner's and $154 for non controlling interests. )

Only the mobile division lost money and it's only $27 million now but this quarter always sucks so next results will probably be a lot lower.

Yes it looks that way, the threads title needs to be fixed

$419 million profit and not $260 million profit

I don't know if thiswas aimed at me or Gribble.

As I put down, 2.4m VGC numbers sold vs. 3.5m Sony numbers shipped.

I doubt they overshipped the full 1.1m. So, my thoughts are 0.9-1m PS3s, which would be Ok, probably tracked within margin of error.

2.5-2.6m PS4s shipped -- to me very unlikely that they overshipped that much when they seemed to have shortages just a months or two prior. So, most likely, instead of 800K overshipped, they are undertracked in EU/RoW by some 300-400K, as we have a very good knowledge of US and Japanese numbers.
