I'm talking overtracked.

 

VGC shows PS4 at 9.4M sold through to consumers as of August 9th. Sony announced at Gamescom that PS4 has "sold through to Consumers" 10M by August 10th.

http://www.gamespot.com/articles/playstation-4-sells-10-million-units-sony-reveals-/1100-6421671/

 

If VGC PS4 numbers at this moment in time are ~600k off from that announcement then how could you possibly argue that we have it overtracked?

It seems preferences dictate whether a system is over or undertracked given he thinks WiiU is undertracked (despite me showing him evidence) and PS4 (despite being shown evidence) and XB1 are overtracked ...

It's scary to know people ignore all logic like that due to console allegiance. Very scary.

 

Well thought out and executed OP by the way. Nice to see some proper threads for a change to bring good discussion. Keep it up.

VGCharts "August 9" hardware chart: The Wii U is the only next gen console that make sense. The PS4 sold 50,000 (estimate) in both America and Europe, and 5,000 in Japan. But it sits at roughly 120,000 consoles sold which could mean 15,000 consoles was sold in other (Highly Unlikely). The Xbox One sold 34,000 in the US and 11,000 in Europe which could mean the XOne sold 6,000 consoles in other (Highly Unlikely). I'm starting to think those consoles are over tracked.


LMOA PS4 is only undertracked by 700k

I'm talking overtracked.

To be blunt and honest, I don't trust Sony either.  They seem like the type of company that would lie. lol

Yeah because they're in desperate need of needing to lie about that, I guess being at 9m and millions ahead of both competitors would look really bad ..


Have you heard yourself?

Totally agree. I even believe Xbox one has a chance to beat ps4 there. Well made thread.

Great argument you've got there. I was almost ready to concede.

However, it's not like Sony has any reason to lie, considering PS4 is far and away the best performing console at the moment. Why would they need to try and pad their numbers? What would they gain by making stuff up? Why would a company even do that to begin with? It's also not like Sony doesn't have access to data like GFK, NPD, etc... while VGC does not, but go ahead and believe silly stuff.

What's next, they make up stuff on their financials when they report shipments?

Yeah I'm sure Sony would lie and risk their entire reputation just for console wars on the internet.

Im sure they give bigger bumps, just wont matter enough over all. 

 Alaso you hope they are but its far from a sure thing, The fps market is not exactly lacking competition Halo is not what it was and Gears god only knows given its creaters sold it of and now an unproven dev is making the next one.  Only thing sure is MS will whore then out to epic skaces.  But quality wise id actually have to go with SmashZelda.

Even if Halo and Gears face a decline they're still going to move systems. Those franchises have a lot of fans. Again, aside from Smash and Zelda what's going to push the WiiU above XBO? It won't be multiplats that's for sure. 

Wont be multis on x1 much either, casue why buy a system for an inferor version ? so it is really a battle of exclusives.  

It depends on the multiplat. Games like Evolve and AC Unity should move some XBOs since they have an exclusive advertising deal. And games like Destiny and Far Cry 4 will move PS4s. What multiplats does Nintendo have advertising deals with?

It will only be ignored.  Sony first called the Wii remote a gimmick, then they made "Move" and everyone was like Yea!

Yet another thread detailing how wishful thinking is going to let the XB1 win this gen against it's competitors. Aint gonna happen. XB1 will end up third this gen.
