Awesome PS4, good XBOne, OUCH! Wii U and PSV.
Almost ouch for 3DS, that avoids by a whisker staying under 100k for the fourth consecutive week, but it takes a Mario title to achieve it, this can't be considered good.

About SW, awesome Destiny, and awesome SSB, saviour of 3DS. These games definitively mark the end of the Summer slump.

Watch Dogs Europe week 1 numbers: ~1311k
Destiny Europe week 1 numbers~ 1321k

Almost in line with Ubisofts statement. Watch Dogs might be a littele undertracked or Destiny a little overtracked.

Lol it's apples to oranges anyway considering the sizable pc sales for WD.

60% (or even 80? i dont remember) of all pc units were digital

 

while just ~10% of current gen console units (last gen even less) were digital

Additional 20-30k from digital pc sales that make WD>Destiny, for example.

And there is no reason to be surprised, it's all there in the data. The sales ratio of Destiny on PS4 to Destiny on Xb one is 1.26:1 the US LTD sales ratio of PS4:Xb1 is

... drum roll please

Ta daaaaa! 1.26:1!

Amazingly, Destiny sold exactly proportionately according to the install base of each console. If there is to be any surprise, it's the fact that it is almost exactly proportional. I think most people, including me, would have picked a higher attach rate for Xb one. That bit of data tells me that the Destiny deal Sony did with Acti had a significant effect. If the game had been marketed with no console bias at all in the advertising I reckon we'd have seen Xb one with pretty close to the same, and possibly even higher Destiny sales numbers.

Of course this is on the understanding that VGC software numbers carry a significant error, so we can't truly know the relative sales of each version, except for "a lot"

I am glad someone did the math! VGC must have purposely picked numbers that would make the ratios match. It seems to coincidental for it to happen otherwise. Either way, I agree money well spent! Xbox platforms gained to much dominance in America by owning the biggest shooter brand in CoD last gen, and they did not want similar thing happening again.
