Forums - Sales - August 2014 NPD Thread! PS4 - 190k, XBO - 160k, Wii U < 60k, PSV < 6k

XBO numbers aren't too bad with all things considered, I'm curious to see how September will be like.

I don't understand why people focus so much on sales numbers when profitability matters more.

Cause this is a...sales site?  Just maybe?  And it just so happens that the one selling the most currently is also profiting the most from video game sales. 


Sorry, it's just that people see a number and immediately spell doom.



59.7 is definitely bad, but then, I don't think anything better can be expected when Wii U often goes for 2 or 3 months without a new game.
The Wii U is selling only on the backs of Mario Kart 8 which was released in the last days of May. 3 months have passed.
At least it is almost double of what it sold last year in the same month.
I don't expect to see better sales till Bayonetta 2, I think it will do more to sell Wii U's than Hyrule Warriors, I also think Bayo 2 could get a Metacritic of over 90.

Less than 6k? Why are devs still supporting the device?

Did I miss the fun? Anyone has the list of software sales numbers yet?


ToX2 ~ 43K
SF4 < 22K (PS3+360)

Do you have hard data on profitablility?

You can't jerk off to stuff if you haven't something hard.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I don't think Wii U was ever above 60k in August WW now. Infact it looks like it could be heading to 40k territory the week of the Madden bundle.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287
