binary solo said: But I also note the only direct Sony quote is “PS4 continues to be the cumulative sales leader in the US and globally with more than 20 million consoles already in the market,” When Sony says "cumulative sales leader" that usually means another console was #1 for the month. So has VB misinterpretted Sony's statement or has there been more definitive confirmation? |
“As we head into E3, we would like to thank gamers for making PS4 the top-selling console and the leader in software sales in the U.S. in May,” a Sony spokesperson said.
binary solo said: From that Venture Beat Article "After the Xbox One surprised everyone by outselling thePS4 in April, Sony has come charging back to own hardware sales in May, according to data from research firm The NPD Group. The Japanese publisher has confirmed to GamesBeat that its PS4 system outsold the competition in the United States, which is where NPD tracks sales. With the $55 billion worldwide console-gaming market up for grabs, it’s essential for Sony to keep its lead in sales." These people are pretty stupid. the worldwide console market isn't up for grabs, so it's not essential for Sony to keep its sales lead in the USA. AND Xb one winning April was not a surprise to anyone who tracks Amazon.

No Sony have been saying that pretty much all the time when they win and when they dont.
So Splatoon made top 5. Nice. It will likely make top 10 again in June if its performance holds. Gonna be interesting.
If you think Pokémon alone can solve this terrible slump the 3DS is in then you are sadly mistaken.

Suggest you read it again
"But May’s biggest surprise is probably Nintendo’s Wii U exclusive Splatoon. The colorful shooter did not debut until May 28, which means it only had three days of sales on this chart. Despite that, it was able to come in at No. 5 overall. This is impressive for a new intellectual property that is not widely available on all systems."
Yes quite impressive.
Oh OK so I see someone posted a direct quote from Sony saying number 1 in May. All is clear.
So Ryng, you should stop posting in the thread for a little bit and work on updating the OP with the software chart
