500k > PS4 < 570k
Wii U > 100k
3DS - 140k

Hyrule Warriors - 190k (including digital sales)
Mario Kart 8 - 60k (including digital sales); nearly 1.2m LTD
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS - 705k (including 135k digital sales)


@Bold, Uh... that's wrong

MK8 sales have a little under 50% attach rate last I recall and nearly 1.2 LTD does not equal under 50% attach rate, pretty sure it's positive 3 million including digital

NPD tracks the United States market, not the world. You know that, right?

North American market and yes, had a brain fart

United States and Canada.

Question: how much did Halo 3 boost X360 back in 2007?

360 (Halo 3 release Sept. 2007) : 527.8k
PS4 (Destiny release 2014) : 550k?

Are you sure?

My quik math tells less than 450k, with VGChartz numbers. 

Halo 3 realy picked steam in the Hollydays, a thing I don´t think Destiny will do.


Wait.... now you are cool with using VGC numbers again?

Sony has issued a statement on its performance for the month of September in advance of this evening’s NPD report. The publisher says that Activision’s Destiny broke PlayStation Store sales records for first day, first week, and pre-orders.

PlayStation 4 also won the month in the United States. The publisher says that it sold three times as many consoles, including bundles, over August 2014.

Sony says that revenue for the PlayStation Store is up 90 percent over September 2013

Source? This wording makes it seem more like ~560k

"Mario Kart 8 sold nearly 60,000 combined units in its fifth month on the market, bringing its lifetime total in the U.S. to nearly 1.2 million total units."

my mistake... actually I should maybe find data that doesn't look like a mess... from somewhere

What?



Holy hell! F*cking amazing PS4 numbers! Even undertracked on here too! Also PS4 beat X360's Halo3 month from 2007? That's quite the "achievement" :)

Poor Michael Pachter! This guys needs a new job, who the hell pays him for such shitty projections..
