44k HW
with 53k SW?

edit: Also, what's wrong with this topic? all new posts look weird


Well, that's odd. I doubt they bought consoles without games on it.



Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

EU numbers are great but seem odd...
What would cause the sales to be 4 times bigger than last week in Europe ?

 

  • 2nd September: Chile and Colombia
  • 4th September: Japan
  • 5th September: Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, United Arab Emirates
Personally i find the ROW numbers stranger than the european
~22k launch in Chile, Colombia, Saudi arabia, Turkey and Emirates? I have no idea how many consoles those countries usually move though

Switzerland is not EU tho



Switzerland is probably counted against europe in VGC.

Well Congratulations X1 on being on top this week... besides Japan that is always correct because of average on 2 sources I won't comment on the other regions numbers because they will be severely adjusted one way or another, but even so PS4 and X1 for this week would be quite close anyway.

Now just waiting for the several threads of X1 will pass PS4 and X1+WiiU wiill always have more marketshare than PS4... how many will we have using this week numbers?

Anyway as ethomaz said 20k for 4 tiny markets is doubtfull... and people never disproved his claim that the european territories sold low on X360, they are just trying to pick population and apply other country sales ratio (and using germany 1M overtracked at it hahaha) or using PS3/PS4 sales to say the market is big for X1. Let's see how much it will end up being before being too happy or sad ok?

Russia is European right? And Xbox should best the ps4 again for the 23rd.


I don't think Russia really is European.



Naturally Russia is an european country. And an asian country as well, but most of the population is in the european part anyways. I just don't know if VGC counts it towards the european region.

Quite the boost for X1 with the release in the rest of Europe :).


HUH?? For launch week it is horrendous, it barely beat PS4...and chances are it never knowing Vgchartz probably overtracked, no way PS4 dropped 30 k in 1 week.



153K to 133K are 20K drop. And the PS4 is basically back to it's baseline after Diablo, Tales and Madden boost.


The PS4's baseline so far was 140-160k. Not 130k. Also, Madden, Diablo and Tales didn't boost the PS4. The last game that did so was TLOU: RE



PS4 never had 160K baseline. That were games boosting it. Before Madden it was at 140K and slowly dropping. My bad about Diablo and Tales, that strangely had no boost. Even more, Tales was for PS3. Sorry for that. I misread. But Madden had: http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41875/Global/ (Diablo week) http://www.vgchartz.com/weekly/41882/Global/ (Madden week, 10% boost) So with 133K without a release PS4 is only a few K below the week that Diablo released. These few K might be people holding back for Destiny-bundle, but overall it is not that far away from the 140K baseline.

Wow, one of the very few weeks ever we'll see X1 in first place.

your right theres not even a X1 game on the top 20 wth .

Good to see the Xbox One on top for a change. This is actually good. Now people won't be bored of seeing the PS4 or 3DS being first. Nice boost as well.

Oh and I don't think anyone is beating the Wii U this holiday. First week of Oct, the 3DS will be winning huge as well.

Sorry what? 

You saying that the wiiU and 3DS is going to be coming first and second followed by the PS4/XB1?

If yes, are you on some cheap drugs? I will like to have whatever you are on!!

Yep. I always knew that VGC's European numbers were whack, but the overtracking of the 360 in Germany was really egregious. And beating the PS4 supposedly by 5000 units is very tiny and an epitome of a Pyhrric victory.
