How far apart did they launch? Like between NA/Europe/Japan etc? That would determine if the sales mattered or not.

Launched Nov 15th 2013 in NA, then Nov 29th in Europe (and probably many other countries), and Feb 22nd 2014 in Japan.

Thank you my good sir! Well that puts things in a different perspective.

Edit to OP: Nintendo Switch logo fixed

So when Gamestop said "This is one of the strongest and most successful gaming console launches for GameStop in the last several years." they meant the best launch since PS4 & XB1 then.

Also, did the logo image not work or will be always be like that, in the charts?

You will have to wait if you don't want the site to get down! :P

Site code needs a big update for that...

is sony paying you for adverting? Your signature photo is so annoying and bright and fruity. Hope they pay you well for that lame ad.

Decent launch for Switch.

Excellent regular week for ps4 too!

Yh, if we ignore the fact that that was the same week that HZD launched. 

So basically, VGC is saying that not only did HZD not give any kinda boost to the PS4 numbers, the numbers actually dropped compared to the week before.

Vgchartz probably undertracked the hardware this week.  Either way 250k is superb but as I said probably did more this week.

Two weeks.
It was like this: PS4 releases in US, XBO releases a week later, PS4 releases in most relevant countries across the globe a week later.
Japan release was only in February, though, so that extra 300K doesn't really count as launch sales, but the 2M do.

well not really, the only way they would have been able to ship 2+ million launch week is if the following two weeks recieved no shipments.

Very good launch, especially not launching in the Holidays

As long as the momentum stays high and stock isn't an issue, then the Switch will do fine

Did you quote the right person? What signarture photo does Tak13 have? And even if you quoted the wrong person wh can't they jus thave a photo the like in their signature? And why did you pick ONE person out of ALL the people on the site to say just their signature is annoying and lame? Are you having a bad day or something? Everything ok? Your comment just seems well....kind of random. And sometimes when people are having bad days or weeks they just find anything to complain about or attack so I have learned to ask if everything is ok.

Pretty sure you quoted the wrong guy.

Either way it was kind of a silly and uncalled for attack anyway. Why not just go to settings and block the signatures instead of attacking another use......that's pretty sad imo.
