Hey Bou, i repost this even on VGC if someone missed it, the real best selling version of Lego is the PS4 version, not 360.

 

EDIT: Nvm, already fixed, good work!

I don't see why people have hope for the Xbox One in March.

PS4 has MLB this month. That's going to more than counter any marketing rights for The Division. MLB has been up YOY for a while, and that alone should do it. Then again PS4 has a couple JRPG exclusives, and Heavy Rain remaster as well.

If Microsoft aggressively priced the Division Bundle, it might have been interesting.

They'll take March and i also think they'll take April. On top that i'll even say Ratchet & Clank will out sell Quantum Break in April.

I think SFV will meet Capcom's 2 mil goal.

Interesting to see Primal on top. I guess people were willing to embrace a spin-off.

Nice to see Fates at least chart. I could have bet it would have been higher but I guess not.

Naruto above Street Fighter, how odd.

Nice to see PS4 up again. I thought it may have peaked last year, and while I think that will be the case by the end of the year, it is a good start to the year.

Highly unlikely. I'm pretty confident SOny will Drop PS4 by another $50 at the end of the year, and through the first 9 months PS4 should be well up YoY being $50 cheaper. With Ratchet and Clank and UC4 Sony should have some sweet holiday deals where they have some popular and well known franchises that they can afford to pretty much give away to make end of year bargains that much greater.

"the main cause of the decrease was portable hardware, which dropped by 58 percent, or $48 million
Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii sales dropped by 77 percent.
PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Wii U, meanwhile, dropped by 6 percent."

all numbers are Revenue not unit sales!!!!!!!!

New Software this february vs last. (last year had zelda, evolve, and the order lol)
"new launches sold 4 percent less in dollars and 12 percent fewer units than those of February 2015"

We know, it's pretty common knowledge that it's revenue unless specified otherwise.

It hasnt peaked yet, its either this year, or the next. I really doubt it ll be down by end of year.

Naruto did pretty well :) that's definitely a game I will get down the road



soonyfanboy on 10 March 2016

Naruto was the top-selling game on PlayStation 4 in February


Naruto Ps4 sold more than FarCry Primal Ps4 or SFV
probably best selling single sku

Primal > FC4 when aligning launches
