Waiting for adjustments, seriously discussing these numbers right when posted is becoming pointless.

EU X1 numbers are very fishy... Anyways, X1's numbers for EU and Japan will severely drop off next week.

Why would they drop next week? That week has those deals with "Buy an Xbox, get a free game", plus Destiny.

Because these are launch numbers, not baseline sales. That week, the PS4 also had the Destiny bundle in both EU and Japan.

There is still UK, France, and Germany to boost the numbers up thanks to the deals. Plus, who knows how many held off a purchase that week when Destiny launches the next week?

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

A lot of people were waiting for this bundle in Europe what is so strange about it guys?

Time goes so fast

2 weeks ago: - Some People defended the idea that WiiU will sell more this year than Xbox one
- Plenty believed that Xone will not be topping the weekly charts any time soon
- Plenty believed in one of the 20-30 threads that Tier 2 countries will not create much of a boost..
- People were certain that Destiny will be ****ing amazing...

Anyway it is nice to see that the Xone and PS4 do so well together, feel bit sorry for the WiiU..it dropped harder that I thought it would..

Amazing. Launch in 27 new countries... win by only 5k. I don't want to sound like a jerk, but PS4 has this locked down. fist fight for 2nd place coming.

Ask stefl1504 for a sig, even if you don't need one.

The PS4 got a 320k the week it launched in Japan. I don't see what people find so strange about the XOne getting a 80k boost the week it launches in Japan and 19 other countries. If anything, that seems like extremely disappointing numbers?

Well, I don't think France is exactly the place where there could be a boost for the XBO.
I live there, and I can tell you that the very vast majority of people don't care about the Xbox One.

Also, there is a PS4 Destiny bundle. Don't you think people held off a purchase for this ?

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

Yeah it's totally pointless, the number of times things have gone up or down... no point getting all worked up about a set of numbers that on the whole generally turn out to be incorrect :D

Ps we know Japan is correct though, so that is something :)
