We have some software numbers and splits aside from the ones in the OP?

Unfortunately that is all creamsugar shared except these informations about Arkham Knight but they don't add up with the PR comment:

Total should be above Arkham City which was at 1.5 million (unless that 1.5m is wrong). So I'm waiting to see if he will provide some clarification because he might have forgotten one SKU.


or npd is talking about $ sales not sold units?
should be possible, too

Wow, Wii U is heavily overtracked. At least 3DS is undertracked. But wow.
NX can't come soon enough.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

PR is talking about revenue, no?

The end of 2014 GAP in US was ~500k (up from 186k in 2013).

Right now the GAP is 770k.

It will goes up for sure until September... you can expect September alone adding 150k or more to the gap... my estimates is a GAP over 1 million after September NPD.

October will be the next Xbone close GAP month... it is not a big month in sales so I expect it to close ~150k due Halo (I'm expeting Xbone @ 450k / PS4 @ 300k).

November the biggest seller shift side (CoD Bundle) while I expect Xbone to win it won't be like last year with 400k+ difference... maybe a 200k only this year.

Same for December a win for Xbone but less than last year... 100k.

Final prediction GAP: ~600k

I expect it to have a GAP a bit over what they had last year...


If what you say is correct, than the console war is already over and what we are seeing now is just a cycle that brings the Xbox One no closer to actually winning the US.   And all the while, Microsoft is stuck fighting in the USA and has no chance at the rest of the world...

I found the AK issue.

Seems like 1.1m is just for PS4 guys.

Its not a remake. I was just saying that the name has nothing to do with it lol.

Still a good remaster. Mainly because the game was made long enough ago that improvements can actually be made rather than just a resolution and framerate bump

I'm not sure why you try to say Gears is a remastered... I mean, if you ask me, remake >>>>>>>>> remastered.

And yeah, considering how good is Gears on XBO, seem more a remake than a remastered...


The cutscenes are remade completely. But I don't see enough changes to call it a remake.

Haven't seen the remastered Gears but if its the same game with prettier graphics then its a remaster.

An example of a remake is Tomb Raider Aniversary. 

An example of remaster is the tomb radier collection for the ps3/x360

An example of a reboot is the new tomb Raider

That's not NPD, it was people trying to reach a number based on info becoming gradually available

As for the gap..CosmicSex is right (that sounds so good), not much to say about a repeating cycle. Whether in Oct-Dec X1 cuts it by 10k, 100k, or even 1M, it'll go back to what it is in 2016.
