Or higher given the PS4 Pro launch. I guess we'll have to wait.

It says right in what was mentioned that it was mainly due to cheaper prices for the PS4 and XBO.

The article says that, not NPD. Articles from other sites don't mention it.

Neogaf is saying Sun and Moon sold around 2.7m

Battlefield 1 over 1.35m (with digital sales) in its second month would be kind of crazy. But possible I guess.

Not exactly what I wanted from 3ds ( maybe because I was misled ) but not bad, 60% yoy up! ( I was expecting a 100% )

They shipped/sold 196k NES classic units in the USA, only 96k more than in France alone? Unfathomable!
That's absurd, move Nintendo, produce and ship more to the biggest core video game market of the world and your own biggest market too...

They produced more for Japan and Europe? 0_0 ...

It's also the article that mentions the 35% drop in revenue, if we're counting one thing they said, why wouldn't we count the other?

What that means is that the 3DS saw 59% unit sales growth YoY whilst both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One were down YoY.

In fact the top 3 software titles were down 43% YoY vs the top 3 software titles last year

Digital growth helped offset the overall decline

With discounts and the month being nov (not to mention it eating up its competitors like tf2/cod) i can see it being over that easily.

Also sun/moon dont include digital while others does? Pretty good (if thats the case) for pokemon being numero uno!

Don't worry, I'm not worrying... hahah

I had higher expectations than thοse I should normally have. Usually this a huge mistake for obvious reasons!

3DS being 60% yoy up in its 6th november, is anywise impressive!

Pokemon go+ Pokemon sun and moon did their job, I simply wanted to see doubling, 700k instead of 556k, albeit the discrepancy isn't so big...

Also, I'm somewhat vexed with Nintendo thatreally didn't shipped as much as 99$ new 3ds units they had to.
