Last years NPD are always in the OP.

Just because I find it so amusing.

$500 Xbox 1 Q1 2014 NPD sales with required kinect: 711k
$349/$299 Xbox 1 Q1 2016 NPD sales: 631k

Edit: 2014 was off a bit, gets even more ridiculous. 2014 was 12% above 2016.

Power of the kinect!

This is for you, Welfare and Shadow1980. It will help with your charts.

GAF mods don't know what they're missing by refusing to unban me or my friend. Oh well~ ^_^

I do have permission to post this. My NPD friend is long gone, unfortunately. Scared away by the misguided NeoGAF moderation team who unfairly banned him (and still won't unban me). :(

I don't know if I can post anything else. I'll check and see what else is OK.

Aqua is saying that the PS4 is up YoY by 338 units.

That's why I made that comparison post....I've noticed that the estimates made in the OP on this site are often slightly off due to accumulated rounding error.

Also, Creamsugar said the following:

"Xbox 360 / Wii = 1007.875"

Now just substitute the precise figure for Xbox 360 sales this month:
24,189 / 24 = 1007.875

In other words, Wii sold just 24 units this month. It makes sense. PS3 is nearly finished with only 2,100 units sold, and Wii has been officially discontinued.

But in a way it's sad to see the Wii officially flatlining. I remember opening it Christmas Day back in 2006...it's been a wild ride.

Thank you, Aqua. It's foolish that GAF continues to have you banned, but hopefully while you post here, you also bring your quality posts that bring insight and knowledge to everyone else.

Also the PS3 beat the 360 in March 2015? Interesting.

Nice data aqua.

Hell, 360 is still selling. Can't believe it outsold PS3 by 12:1 This month.

No fe numbers. :(
