So NPD is out today.......

Off with the U.S. and black friday so the numbers are definitely off for Europe. 

I don’t understand why you guys keep under tracking PS5 and way over tracking Xbox. Even the Switch gets over tracked.

Dont base anything from sales in the U.K. Sony obviously sent the majority PS5’s to the rest of Europe and the USA.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Xbox is over tracked by 1.5M. PS5 is at least a couple hundred thousand off.

I mean this site had Xbox selling more than PS5 the second week of God Of War and whole lot of PS5 in stock. Like that’s an easy guess that PS5 would be selling the most over Switch and Xbox the entire month.

Our data at one point had XS higher for Black Friday week, but I ended up going a bit lower. Apparently not low enough. It is still #1 for Black Friday week i the US though. But obviously not by nearly as much.

I've tweaked up our PS5 estimates in Europe by 30,000 for November. Once the Europe monthly report comes out I will adjust to match that data for all 3.

NPD confirmed what VGChartz already showed in their weekly #'s for November, that PS5 was ahead of the Switch in the USA for the month by 10's of thousands of units.  Where is this amazing revelation that shows VGChartz has some kind of anti-Sony bias you are claiming that NPD has proven?



Main weekly hardware breakdown on our estimates for Black Friday has been updated following the adjustments.

4.5 million until reaching 20 million, I wonder if it will reach that number by the end of the year
