NSW ~365K

PS4 ~285k

XBO ~225k

3DS ~55k

Other ~140k

Ah, thank you!

That PS4 number is correct right? Thank you again.

Yep those should be correct within a few thousand.

Second lowest February for Xbox and ps4, the decline is starting to show. The switch is going to have the strongest year out of any this gen, and by a good amount too.



No games yet and already considerable advantage YoY, and a far better library starting from June.
Seems switch wont need revisions or price cut to have its peak in this year.



Every console is quite a bit lower than I had predicted/hoped. I usually predict pessimistically to counter that, but even then they are low. Obviously, the lack of announcements and excitement from the big 3 could have affected February quite a bit this year.

Rough estimates

NSW ~365k
PS4 ~285k
XBO ~225k
3DS ~55k
Other ~140k

140k for other?

Vita, Wii U, X360 and PS3 combined for 140k...that sounds way too high.

I think 'other' would also include the retro consoles.

Well, looks like I better get to work on those adjustments on my thread.

Nes and snes classic are included, and make up most of the total

NSW- 360k
PS4- 280k
XB0- 270k

Well, I was really close on my PS4/NS predictions but I overestimated the X1 again.  Looks like I will have to adjust my espectations on the X1 for this year.  I wish MS would just stop fooling around with those temporary promotions and make the price cut permanent already.

And I can´t help but wonder how much will a $199 disc-less SKU affect its sales (I´m really hoping this rumor is true).

Oh! And a $199 SKU revision for the Switch will be just insane.

Still weird...Why suddenly the NES and SNES classic would make more than one third of Switch sales.
