Ok so I did my own WiiU numbers using past HW data I could find (most from VGC threads but a couple from other places)

WiiU 2013: 57k , 66k , 67k , 35k , 35k , 42k , 29k total = 331     331*1.6 = 530

WiiU 2014: 49k , 82k , 70k , 49k , 60k , 140k total = 450      

530 - 450 = 80
 

80k

Check my numbers if you want ( I'm tired)

it cant be 80k because its a 60% increase its about 510k

60% increase is the same as doing *1.6

331*1.6= 529.6 (530k)

3 hours is just a guess on my part, could be 2, could be 4, all I know is that NPD is always a long night for me, if I want to know PS4 numbers. Creamsugar has a habit of not telling hardware numbers until the very end, that's why last month I think I was up till about 5 am or something.

Well, I'm determined to stick this out so that number better exceed 250k!



 

The PS5 Exists.

Lots of possibilities for error anyways. All we can really say is that it should be around 70-90k (haven't calculated the error margins but that's a rough estimate)

Why are MS so silent about their NPD numbers this gen? They were so vocal last gen ...

Not only that but they were praised by certain people for being open about their numbers at the beginning of the generation even though they were losing. It was suggested that Sony should learn from them. Weird how now that they've stopped sharing their numbers people who praised them don't have anything to say about that.  Very weird

Well the people who praised them are nowhere to be found in NPD threads these days.

They might be banned at the moment or on holiday having fun. Because I've seen them spin anything no matter how bad it looks. I just don't get why it's so hard for some people to give credit where it's due or to admit that they were wrong. Cuz we're all human and make mistakes. Some times I feel that the only explanation is that they're shareholders and don't want to say anything remotely negative about the company they're investing in. Needless to say, I don't have anyone in mind.

Or they could have bought a PS4? Stranger things have happened.
