Forums - Gaming - PS4 Generates Most Software Revenue At UK Retail in 2014

Once again, unashamably stolen from Gaf:

PS4 Generates Most Software Revenue at Retail in 2014

Tables sorted by YTD 2014 column.





Xbox One LTD: 2.83 million units
PS4 LTD: 3.42 million units ---> PS4 retail tie ratio is approximately 3.4

Xbox One YTD: 1.67 million units
PS4 YTD: 2.09 million units



 

The PS5 Exists.

Awesome news. PS4 is carrying the flagship of home consoles. Greatness has arrived.



Might want to put UK in the title.

Figures pretty much expected seeing as there ~300k more PS4s sold in the country. Wish they had a first party column, that would be interesting



Impressive how fast the PS4 overtook 360 in that regard. All those no games helped

Software numbers:

PS4 3.13m, so 300k undertracked on VGC (9.5%)
ONE 2.43m, so 400k undertracked on VGC (16.4%)

Xbox One attach ratio if using the software from OP would be 4.4 if we use hardware from VGC. Something is off.

Yeah the software numbers are off. We know the hardware sales are almost spot on (maybe PS4 20k or so overtracked, and XB1 looks good since Sony said PS4 retains the 1.5:1 ratio)

so many people buying so many meh games just because the system is new. NOT saying that PS4 has not many good games but why do people buy new systems and then go "fuck what am I doing with it? Lets just buy whatever"

Boggles my mind that PS4 sold more software than PS3 rofl.


btw same can be said about XBO.



Looks like we might have found one of our Wii U overtrackment culprits, software sales are flat (well down 1% if we're really accurate) but hardware is supposedly selling over 3 times as much per week as it was the same time last year, sounds fishy.

Good point. Surprises me because it has MK8 now doing decently at least. Just means everything else is doing terribly on it

More than double the Xbox One for August. Pretty impressive.

Look at the YTD numbers. The new consoles are well behind.
