I still see 300K on the front page...

Front page and charts always lag behind.

Based on sales figures since September, I don't think the Xbox One even needs saving, it's doing fine. Certainly not a doomed console.


But you can imagine the big corporate heads at microsoft not too happy about a 6/7 million lead in console sales. More console sales equals more game sales first and third party for the console, which equals more money in the 'leaders' pocket, which also equals third party devs 'cuddling' up to the platform leader a bit more across the years.

So yes, while relatively to other console sales, it's not bad, it aint very much that good neither. (Especially as you have to consider sales will always pick up holiday season, so question is will it drop post christmas...)

I think they'd be smart enough to see they are doing decently and can still make some money themselves. Nobody is gonna catch PS4 this gen and they would be kind of foolish to try, should just focus on doing as well as possible with the Xbox One and making some must have exclusives. Then with all that done next gen should be alot better for them.

Why the PS4 drop? It certainly can't be supply issues.

One doing pretty well, Wii U outsold by the PS3 like last year, 3DS holding nicely due to Japan. Nice debut for Sunset Overdrive all in all!

Unbelievable.


You've got that right. The adjustment never made any sense. Especially when it was never adjusted up fully from the 10 million announcement. It'd be fine if there was some explanation given, but it still didn't make sense.

The argument was that they couldn't just adjust them up willy-nilly because they needed to figure out were those extra consoles where ... fast forward to now and it's suddenly fine to adjust down without a reason. I'm going to be interested to see just how undertracked VGC is when Sony announced 15m sold in the December event.



 

The PS5 Exists.

PS4 is actually up 33k (14.7%) due to adjustments from the week before.

Adjusted down 73k on the week ending Oct 25th? Sure, okay. I smell some rather sizeable post-holiday adjustments in January. We have those every year though and the margins get bigger the closer to the holidays we get.
