Here are the hardware sales for the week, since they haven't posted on the front page yet:

  • PS4 - 208,953
  • NS - 192,964
  • X1 - 101,83
  • 3DS - 52,129
  • PSV - 3,715

Thanks for the hard work you do, its greatly appreciated but i just wanted to point at that it seems as though Switch is overtracked so far this year.

Just going based off the 3 regions Nintendo breaks down sales into, Japan, Americas & Other.

NPD has it at ~860k as of April 7, adding in Canada & Latin America puts that up to ~1 million for the Americas.

Media Create has it at ~725k in Japan putting Japan+Americas at ~1.7 million.

Now comes other, in terms of quarterly shipments other has fallen in between Japan & Americas each quarter (closer to Americas) so based on that something around 850-900k seems likely.

That would put global sales in the ballpark of ~2.6-2.7 million as of April 7 while this site has it at 3.2 million.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

Then their latest game features a half-naked man prancing through the woods with a young boy I can understand the assumption lol.

Its a pace of 107k a week including europe, impossible?

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

By April 14th GoW excellent reviews and hype boost were already in place, being virtually tied with the Switch on RoW doesn't look right at all xP

I'm not new and you were not harsh.

My point is still the same.

PS4 had a 10K lead on RoW last week, this week (8 to 14) PS4 had GoW embargo lift with a massively good reception and hype boost for its biggest exclusive in the year and this affected the system sales with it losing this 10K lead to the Switch everywhere in the world?

Yeah, no.

Waiting with purchasr for the bundle 

This allways happens with major releases outside holiday period

Have the Switch been beating the XONE lately in Europe?



Pocky Lover Boy!

Damn it, Japan. Ruining the PS4's numbers at the wrong time per the usual.
