Alrighty, thanks. Good work by the way; no matter what it seems like you guys are within a few percent for the Switch!

I am proud with how close we have been with Switch sales so far. It is nice how often we get official Nintendo and Sony figures. If only Microsoft would release Xbox One figures. 

They release more relevant information, like MAU =p

But yep, they releasing sold through help a lot.

I understand why XBox One numbers are so high but where did the PS4 boost come from?

From it being PS4... seems like it is just a little above last year on the same period.

Yep. PS4 and Switch seem to have a lot of good games coming. Waiting to see what X1 have to release.

Those numbers look off.

PS4 Killed November, but also VGC needs to do catchup as there are 70m sold as of 3rd december.

But Switch is at 10 million but I don't see them playing catchup on that.

Yes vgchartz is a good site but they are behind. All 3 companies have more sales as previously stated by power animals.

Switch is at 10M as of decmber 10th... so basically VGC has 1.5M sales to allocate in the next 4 weeks. If anything that could mean the current numbers for the switch are overtracked.  

The PS4 was at 70.6M as of december 3rd., which means that right now VGC has to allocate 3.4M sales over the next 3 weeks. If anything that means the PS4 to this point may be undertracked.

Yeah, a month from the 11th on November. 1.5m of a sales in a month is reasonable to think they're up to date right now. 

VGC have 3 weeks to catch up on 3.4m of PS4 sales. (Although they're also likely to adjust previous weeks)

look at the dates said sales were announced or cover... then look at the current date of sales on VGC....... of course they are behind. If VGC had 70.6M sales for the PS4 as of 11th November then it means they are overtracking the PS4 by as much as 3M+
