Are you implying that a remaster selling enough to be 1st place is the greatest part of PS4>X1+WiiU in USA even with Mk8 and other Multiplats??? It didn't sold 1M by itself.

Exactly what he said.

This downplaying is ridiculous...

Ummm im not gonna drop my trousers and start measuring with you guys about "downplaying" It doesnt matter if its a remaster at all. Youre taking a snapshot of a game that sold a lot in a slow period and extrapolating it. Its just a fact if you take a month with one console haveing a big release its going to skew the numbers.


No piss contest... it's just a game that already released, sold for 5 days and were against one of the best sellers from Nintendo and WD. And if the month is so slow let's see how much HW it was sold.

I don't understand your logic. I am not downplaying anything. All I am saying is youre taking a month where there is one clear cut exclusive game thats old a ton and extrapolating it against other consoles. It's just not a fair comparison to make on a larger scale.

I'm thoroughly impressed with TLOU:R sales but  tooting the horn about comparing gross sales across consoles in light of a single titles dwarfing software does not provide a fair comparison.

(Downplaying begins) I don't understand your logic. I am not downplaying anything (oh yes you are).

Downplay-verb-
make (something) appear less important than it really is.

Uhh, yo, this, this right here, this whole thing is called downplaying.



Thanks jlmurph!

WiiU overtracked, likely higher at start of July (given June).

So probably at 12 - 15k a week now in US?

Average in June - 28k

Week 1: 25k
Week 2: 23k
Week 3: 19k
Week 4: 15k

Total: 83k~

Or maybe:

Week 1: 22K

Week 2: 21K

Week 3: 20.5K

Week 4: 19.5K

TOTAL: 83K

MK bump must have been VERY frontloaded then, which doesn't make much sense given June numbers.

Either way, looks like it's been under 50k for most of July.

we dont know european numbers thats the main thing so no one knows so It could be under or over 



Bets:

(Lost)Bet with kinisking: I say Ps4 will win April NPD while he says Xbox One will win it; winner gets 1 week of avatar control.

Hardly see Europe being a whole lot better, it's never been over or under US by a whole lot, probably very similar numbers. And until recently Japan was about 8k a week for WiiU.

I didn't said you were downplaying. Just that to consider a sole game tipping the balance so much that all other softwares on both concorrents and the own platform are dwarves isn't accurate.
