Heh.. Just make sure that nipples don't appear in those gifs and you'll be perfectly fine!

photodhop mens nipples over the womens nipples,  you might just evade a ban

Hmm, that's a good idea! Ka-pi, you should start taking notes!

Does the world only consist of US and Japan? We don't have anything but that. "Only Europe" already sounds bad because Europe is huge, but you're forgetting a lot of important regions still.

I am talking about mostly lifetime sales based on shipped vs. sold being way too close, as often was the case with 3DS' predecessor (which tended to have higher "sales" than "shipments"...)


But 2014=/=2011-2013, Yes 3DS lifetime is overtracked by a million but we dont kno exactly wat it is this year (which is wat we are discussing). If your so much on 3ds, thn you should be with every HW as we dont have any numbers for anybody in Europe (aside frm a few Countries reguarding PS4/X1

Huh? Like I said, I am talking about shipments. We get shipments every quarter from all manufacturers. Also, Sony announces sales to consumers a few times per year.

Wow.. X1 numbers are horribly low. I wonder how many units are sold at the end of the year...

We need to establish a new term for frontloaded sales or high 1st week sales. I suggest "nice boobs".

I like that plan. Now... I'd better get some gifs ready for Destiny's 1st week sales

Destiny will have the nicest boobs of 2014 I'm sure


I'm having an inner-debate here. If it's anything like CoD's sales then yes they will be amazing. But we can't be too sure with a new IP. One thing we do know is that it will have huge FW sales.

Still under tracked.... Sony said at least 10 million a week before these numbers are tracked for. The mockery of the site will go on.

What is with people like you? Do you seriously expect 100% of adjustments to occur instantly?

17 days after the announcement is hardly instantly.

Globally in the US?

Well a new guess ... This isnt good for VGC chart regarding sales

So explain exactly what you would do differently to speed that process up. All of the methods you use got you to the #'s that you announced. You are then told that your #'s are massively off, but you have absolutely no clue how, or where, they are actually off.

It takes time to determine where these #'s are off. With no significant announcements besides Sony's, I think it is rather impressive that the #'s got adjusted as soon as they did. Perhaps Sony actually emailed ioi back relatively quickly.



Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.

I just find it odd. Even if we go with the whole, 'you can't just randomly adjust numbers because ioi needs to have some idea of where to adjust them', losing another 100k surely wouldn't have been THAT difficult. It IS almost as if this site doesn't want that 10m on the front page.

That logic is beyond childish if you ask me. If you seriously think that vgchartz doesn't want to adjust the ps4 up to 10m because they don't want to, then you're obviously taking console wars way too seriously. I mean cmon, you can't really be serious right?

You might want to not the word 'almost' there. It's not meant to be taken literally but rather an it's an expression of bewilderment. 'John turned up for his job interview today. He wasn't shaven. It's almost as if he doesn't want the job.' Have I said he doesn't want the job?

Usually, when employer says something along those lines, it usually means that John won't be getting the job. But that's besides the point, I still think that even thinking that this could be a possibility is a bit ridiculous. 

Also, this wasn't the first time that I was reading someone saying something similar to what you said so that was the reason to my reaction.



Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M
