Single SKUs chart:

1. Mortal Kombat (PS4) - 734k
2. Mortal Kombat (XBO) - 516k
3. MLB 15: The Show (PS4) > 120k
4. Bloodborne (PS4) ~ 82k
5. Xenoblade Chronicles 3D (New 3DS) <75k
6. Battlefield: Hardline (XBO)
7. Battlefield: Hardline (PS4)
8. Grand Theft Auto V (PS4)
9. Grand Theft Auto V (XBO)
10. Mario Party 10 > 64k

I'm just seriously baffled by how well MLB held itself, I don't think Amazon indicated that at all.

Yes! Xone!!!!

Nice. So 2 PS exclusives are the best carry over single format titles for the month.

Mortal Kombat did better than I expected for the XB1. Also only 42k hardware sales for the wii U? That's got to hurt.

Yes, it's going to hurt you. You'll have to keep adding the Wii U to your polls.


Not only that, but I'll keep voting for it :)

Want to do one for LTD launches aligned, but I'm missing NPD 2013 data for all systems and 2012 data for WiiU, so if anyone has those numbers (Boutros, wink, wink) I'd appreciate it.

Some certain X1 fans (not on this site) must have been having a field since yesterday, R&C delayed, MS has so much to show "that they can't fit it all into E3" and now the X1 even won NPD, I definitely know which places I'm not going to check out anytime soon (well in fact I shouldn't be checking them out at all).

amazon is dead !!! ha.

No it isn't. Xb one had 2 skus close to the one PS4 sku, which means Amazon was more suggestive of a Xb one win than a PS4 win.

Also I called it. I said the Batman Special edition console would have a dampening effect on PS4 consoles and that Xb one would win April or May. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=200621&page=1

It could end up winning both.


actually, I agree. Amazon was kinda pointless because of the mess of all the SKUs but it did appear the XB1 was doing a tad better.



psn- tokila

add me, the more the merrier.

anyways bad sales all around. Well except MK8, those sales are impressive.

By only 20k. With a much better deal; at a much better price. The Xbox One has to outsell the PS4 by at least 25% to have a shot at winning America. That's just the Gravity of reality.

"Much better" is an understatement. You could get an XB1 for $225 at Gamestop or $175 at Best Buy provided that you trade in your 360 or PS3. Credit goes to Welfare for finding these:

Wow, terrible performance for both wiiU and 3DS in April. I was expecting wiiU to be atleast slightly up over last year (50k). And 3DS is basically flat YoY with the New 3DS... Wow...

NX can't come sooner for Nintendo. Their hardware sales are plummeting. They need new hardware asap (no, not a hardware revision).



Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M
