And some people still say CoD is dead.....

Cod releases every year, when will it show fatigue. Love it or hate it but COD is a beast.

All these 3DS and WiiU niche software numbers and nothing for my beloved Vita :(


We get numbers for Devil's Third for pete's sake and nothing for vita? Is it possible it's doing worse that we've thought? Did it sell less than ps3? Makes you wonder.

I expect the hardware numbers to be dire, but I'd have thought at least the niche software is doing okay.  I mean, SAO sold 70k physical in NA in 2015, so a decent chunk of that'll be on Vita I'd have though.

I'd just like to know how things like DanganRonpa & Persona are doing LTD.

I guess there's still time... unlikely though.



Well looking at these 3DS software LTD numbers, there some hits and some misses.

MonHun; Miku; DBZ; Chibi-Robo and Legend of Legacy have done above what I expected.  Youkai Watch seems to have done well but not as much as I'd have thought it was capable of.

Etrian; Senran Kagura & Little Battlers numbers are quite poor though.  And Ace Combat but that whole thing was just a stupid idea from the get go.

Don you know the rules, source or it didn't happen :p



Look in the december thread and you'll see it. :)

I never doubted Amazon. I was just disappointed that Sony never doubled down on December as far as Amazon was concerned. Given a Black Ops 3 and Star Wars Bundle with (let's say) TLOUR digital code thrown in, I think the gap would have been slightly bigger. That's all I was saying.

But where do you stop! And whose not to say that MS should of done more to increase their sales. I mean both could of done stuff but we probably would of ended up with a situation where they matched each other and cancel out the "extras" and not creating much more sales for themselves.

Perhaps it would have created a tit for tat situation. I just thought it was a bit odd Sony never just took the simple route of adding value.

3DS did 580k



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

Every month and every year the same with VGChartz...
Wii U and Xbox One like always overtracked and PS4 like always undertracked. xD
VGChartz will never learn that they undertrack Playstation consoles and overtrack Microsoft and Nintendo consoles. They will do the same mistake over and over again. Wii U software (aka Splatoon and Xenoblade Chronicles X) are overtracked by a good margin too.

Anyway amazing sales for the #1 console Playstation 4!!!



So, does anyone know how the PS4 and Xbox One did in the US for the full year?



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
