Damn. I was just about to post that. If that is indeed the hardware pie, then the PS4 sold 26.11% more units than the XBO, which makes it roughly a 5:4 margin in the PS4's favor.

Now, for the numbers. If the Wii U did sell 63k and it's the purple part of the pie, that means this is a plausible NPD result (rounded to the nearly thousand):

PS4: 307k
XBO: 243k
3DS: 102k
Wii U: 63k

The problem with these is that the pie is that the pie has six sections, but there are seven systems still on sale: PS4, XBO, Wii U, PS3, 360, 3DS, Vita. So, my estimates may be in error. There's also no guarantee that the purple section is indeed the Wii U. So, don't quote me on these numbers just yet.

People are saying/assuming that might be all home console hardware.

It's just consoles

PS4-39.16%

XBO-31.05%

Wii U-12.98%

360-8.04%

PS3-7.13%

Wii-1.64%

Sony back on top where they belong. Though the numbers are disappointing across the board.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Using 64k for Wii U:

PS4 = 193k
XB1 = 153k
Wii U = 64k
360 = 40k
PS3 = 35k
Wii = 8k

63k for Wii U:

PS4 = 190k
XB1 = 151k
Wii U = 63k
360 = 39k
PS3 = 35k
Wii = 8k



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

According to VGChartz, 

 

PS4 sold around ~350K units last January, 2014 for the entire month in NA.

Hope that helps you guys 

 

 

EDIT - Looks like someones already got it figured out? ^-^

thats wrong
cod (even without bundles) and minecraft never sold one single month more on ps4 

gtaV sold one month more on ps4, but 2 less (but should be ahead if we include the ~350k bundle copies)
madden and nba2k15 sold more on ps4 in theire release month, but less in the holiday period (madden both months, nba2k15 one month)

far cry was always ahaed on the ps4

so we don't know wich game sold most toal ltd ;)

 

 

cod and minecraft is 100% xb1
farcry is 100% ps4
gtaV and nba2k15 are likely ps4
madden likely xb1 (madden is always one of the biggerst seller for christmas in the us with bigger numbers than launch)


No it is right,COD sold more including bundles.Separately it sold more on PS4 and so did GTA.

no ur wrong again, but me too

madden also sold more on ps4 overall

What the fuck? That's a huge over tracking. PS4 sold 271k that month.
