Well I can see Worldwide, I knew the moment sony was launching the same time as X1 they would probably win WW unless they did something stupid, but I did expect it to be closer in the US....Seems todays consumer is a lot more in tune with social media and the like then I realised.

CONSIDERATION:

PS4 back on top, but 3DS still +100K.

Wii U up.

XBOX ONE drop.

PS4 in Europe sell more than in N.America!

Mario Kart domination in USA.


.......This thread was put in the wrong forum yet again smh.

To some the change in tides were hard to percieve, but i could see it quite well. The people i knew who championed the 360 back in the day are either heavy PC, or were ready to make the switch.   And as you said, the consumer is more in touch.  With FB and twitter, everyone is talking, and when the ps4 is a center piece of conversation, you know its going to do well.  People have been coming home to ps where they belong.

I wish sony would release a custom start up for the PS4,  so we can put back the original playstation intro.

700k? 

SONY shipment indicates that at June 30th Ps4 was at 9.7-10M so a month latter I do believe we should be near 9.5-9.7M sold through.



That would be a very very limited stock situation worldwide again. They're are plenty of PS4s in the channel now. Maybe off by 100-200k Max but nowhere near 700k.


9.7-10M shipped as of June 30th... so almost 6 weeks later we could expect like 500-800k more shipments... so that would be on minimun 10.2M and max of 10.8M shipped right now... so if sales are between 9.5-9.7M that would leave between 500k-1.3M... do you think this is small inventory?

I seriously wouldn't be surprised by a 10M announcement at Gamescon on August 12nd.

Good sales. It all adds up, now we just need that 700k adjust so shipping and sales difference gets closer to reality.

I think they will be around the 9.5m-9.6m mark at Gamescom

The PS4 is already off by 70k in germany alone by june 30th, I think 200-300k overall doesn't seem too far off imo.

If sony released around the same time (which they did) came in cheaper or at the same price (which they did) and released a more powerful box (which they did) there really was no way the XB1 could compete with that. Its like people just woke up and forgot that there was a PS1 and PS2 and what sony accomplished with those consoles. They also forgot that the PS3 came in a year late nd cost $600!!!



So according to the main page, ps4 went up 200k. nice adjustment.
