the numbers are in the general ball park.

"The increases are wrong too.

Like, everything is just wrong.

Real month and YTD numbers will be out next week."

 

Thats an exact quote from the NPD guy on Resetera, so yes the OP should be edited since we know for a 100% fact that it is incorrect.

according to ZhugeX the numbers are pretty close. he said xbox had a record november, with ps4 selling the best.

Nowhere does he say anyhing about numbers being pretty close. In fact, he says the opposite.

maybe try reading the post it clearly say switch had it's best months sales since launch, meaning it's sub 900k, he says xbox had a record november , meaning above 1.3, and ps4 was the best selling console.

He also says the numbers are bogus. Yeah, try reading. Big difference between 770K and 900K anyway.

Thought Switch would hit a million. Surprised XBox One was so close to PS4.

That doesn't make sense.  The Xbox One launched a new model an the base model was the cheapest model around.   That the PS4 outsold months of Xbox preorders and a cheaper S model is unbelievable.   Sony won.  It's impressive.   It's doesn't make sense that it won.  Math baby boy.  All of it.

Uhhhhh... of course it makes sense.  I expected something different than what happened, and I was therefore surprised at what did happen.  Not sure how we're arguing about whether I was surprised or not, because I can assure you that I was.

We know switch is clos(sub 900k). We know Xbox is more than 1.3 million, and that PS4 did even better. So only way Numbers r way off is if Xbox and PS4 shattered there respective records.



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

it's anywhere from 750k-900k, we don't know yet. but that seems in the general ball park to me

So the adobe report was blown out of proportions after all

I was thinking about this as well. I'll make a point of remembering this tidbit come November NPD 2018.

This argument started because someone said the OP should be changed since the numbers are incorrect and quickrick said they are close enough.

Any of the numbers could be off by over 100k, thats not "close enough" so the OP should in fact be changed since it displays incorrect info.
