Damn, if this keeps up, the PS4 will claim 50+% in the US. WW is on lock for 50+%.

The Wii U's March 1st party line-up included Mario Vs Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars and Mario Party 10, while the Xbox On'es March 1st party line-up hadScreamride. Despite this, the Wii U lost noticably more ground that month than Xbox One. This just demonstrates how valuable 3rd party support is...

According to my calculations, since we know Wii U is ~84K, the PS4 is 335.67K and the XBO is 233K.

And blah, I overestimated all 3 systems in the prediction thread.

Xbox One: 236k

PS4: 340k

Does anyone have last year's numbers?

01 > 1000 BH
02 < 390 BB
04 < 270 MP
10 > 200 Type-0 PS4

Type-0 Xone < 50k

4-10 on the Top 10 are separated by < 70K

That's not impossible. But I think Ottoni's thing is a bit misleading. If Type-0 is 3:1 for PS4 then total Type-0 is 200K not PS4 Type-0, which means PS4 did 150K and Xb one did 50K. 200K vs 50K for a total of 250K is 4:1, and it would be most improbable for 4-10 to be only 20K. VGC is majorly over tracked for Type-0 in the USA with it givne PS4 200K for opening week and Xb one 50K.

This also proves that Amazon is really bad for people to predict software. On that note this is Amazon's probable top 10 for March:

1 Bloodborne

2 NBA2K15

3 FF Type-0

4 GTAV

5 MM3D

6 MP10

7 BF Hardline

8 ACU

9 MH4

10 SSBU, or Minecraft, or Just Dance 2015, or MLB 2015.

Amazon = terribly unreliable for giving an indication of the wider software market.

KIRBY!!!! F*** YES!!! 110k Lifetime, meaning March was 58k (52k Feb)

That's really nice, Nintendo games always have good legs. I wonder how much has Captain Toad sold to date.

Not surprised to see the PS4 down YOY. Last year, Infamous SS and MGC: Ground Zeroes really gave it a boost.

BTW, is there any NPD data on Mario Vs Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars and Screamride?
