It makes no sense to add PS3 and XBOX 360 numbers. Wii sold more than 102 millon consoles, its the winner of the 7th gen.  Even if PS3 gets to 95, still wont sell more. It was not a win by a large percentage like other gens, but a win after all. Adding PS3 and XBOX is like saying that PS4 is not the winner this year because if you sum Wii U and XBOX ONE are more than 50%,  doesnt make any sense to add Nintendo and Microsoft.   

actually adding X1 and Wii U this year gives you like 40%. PS4 is around 60% for the year! That's domination. 

My point was the Wii didn't dominate anything. It sold less than 360 software wise and PS3 will pass it out soon as well. Both on their own will likely get within 10M of the Wii's lifetime. Yes the Wii won but it didn't dominate like I said.

The Far Cry numbers don't look right.

America - 458,807

Europe - 902,290


EU had a bundle. But you're right US numbers should be higher unless people waiting to buy it BF.

The X1 is still leading the PS4 in the US. Just as planned! There is no turning back now the X1 momentum is just big in NA.

Yeah, the effects from the GTA etc bundles will decline a bit.

It could be offset by the xmas period ramping up? I wonder if the upswing in the US will be enough to counter act the drop elsewhere and get it over 1M weekly. 

No need to wonder. I promise you it will

Exactly. The US:UK ratio seems way too low

Amazing sales for GTAV PS4 and Far Cry 4 PS4 in Europe!

Dragon Age: I also did well, should come close to 500k on PS4 alone FW worldwide

Pretty damn good second week for AC Unity PS4...considering.

PS4 has a bigger user base than XOne in NA, and it's already back with the weekly figures. Once the fire sale for XOne are finished, PS4 will outsell it again week after week for all 2015 until Nov 2015. Then MS will give away again XOne and games for free in Nov  and they will have another boost.

The PS4 leads NA by 1 Mil right? I think that's managable unless its become a 360 vs PS4 event which is probably doubtful at this point in time.

They probably will. But a $299 PS4 and Uncharted 4 will likely stop the boost from putting Xb one ahead of PS4 next holidays. Especially if they release an Uncharted trilogy in June or July, which will be another draw card for 360 owners who are not huge Halo or Gears fans (and yes about 65% of 360 owners in the USA aren't Halo or Gears fans) in the lead up to Uncharted 4.

More than 65% since there is surely some overlap between Halo and Gears fans
