Well, the Link Amiibo was the #1 selling Amiibo, so at least us Zelda fans have that to be happy about!

This gen's going to be fairly boring. Sony is going to win by a large margin.

We need some Sony PR to clear some of this up!

welp...

fake 


@isaparrot is our old friend Thuway. @PNF4LYFE is also another clueless troll.

And I´ve thought trusting Aquamarine was a stretch of reson.

If this is legit then it was sooooooo close to a PS4 victory...imagine the shitstorm. VGC would crash

i wish sony had sold those 12k PS1 themed PS4's in November! Imagine they had of taken it by 2k units :D There would be an epic shitstorm but in the end it would still practically be a draw. So in the grand scheme of things it would make no diff.

Waiting for confirmation (Dunno why Aqua doesn't just say yes or no) but that is stupidly close if so, I knew XB1 was overtracked.

Looks like PS4 could be the only one spot on. 

Surprised WiiU is up so little YOY, does not bode well for this holiday's sales.

I really hope the PS4 is almost spot on because if both are way off and not just the X1 then this site will get a lot of hate from within and outside.

I have a feeling this 7-10k is wrong the way the xbox was selling out and it's dominance on Amazon don't add up

Plzzzzzzzzz. Look at the final numbers for AMazon November and BF week. X1 dominated nothing. PS4 actually dominated BF week and it would of needed to to make this draw for the whole month a reality. It would be crazy if true because it means SOny has counter the weeks of firesale pre BF by doing nothing.

But so...
Wii U Smash week > Wii U black Friday week ???

In this case (if it is), let's say:
1 Week: 20K
2 Week: 30K
3 Week: 100K
4 Week: 95K

Thing about "selling out" is what exactly are you "selling out of".

What of if sony just had more stock than MS? MS could have sold out of 300k wrth of stock and sony could have shipped out 400k worth of stok and not sold out. doesn't mean that the XB1 did better at the end of the day you know?

Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

If that 7-10k gap is true...game over, pack it in, better luck next time. No way the Xbox One ever catches the PS4 in the U.S.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Dude, IDC have "reliable" he is. Its almost impossible for such a small gap, and since when was he so reliable, never heard of him, and because hes guessing everything its suddenly correct? Don't think so, sry! And this isn't defense mode, because he says something it all goes to H*** on this post.

You never heard of cboat? He leaked the specs of both ethe PS4 and the XB1 months before both console were even announced. He was spot on about sony using GDDR5 ram, but he like everyone else just couldn't know that sony were going for 8GB instead of the 4GB that even sony devs thought they were going with. He leaked out basically the entire first year release schedule of the XB1. Including the halo MCC. Leaked out the DRM policies MS were thinking about using before MS actually announced it. Leaked out that sony would start charging for online multiplayer before sony anounced it.

I will put it this way, theer is not a single other leaker on the planet that has got as much stuff spot on as Cboat. Though he typically has a very cryptic way of talking. If you knew him, you will know why its such a big deal.

I am still taking what he has said as a rumor though,but its not impossible. Especially when you consider how loose MS PR has been so far.


That was ntkrnl

And I thought he said Sony WOULDN'T have an online paywall.

Am i mixing my insiders up?lmao... well ignore me if I am wrong then. it was a looooooong time ago.
