In North America alone?

I think it's somewhere around that for NA, yeah. Maybe I'm horribly wrong. Who knows. lol

 

[vin-buc]

I predict some amazing sales for TLOU:Remastered, maybe even as a system seller.

It was strange seeing my entire Playstation friendslist turn into a huge TLOU lovefest on day of release.

I agree on system seller status (was there a US bundle?). I asked someone to pick this up for me and it was sold out in 2 different locations.

 

[ethomaz]

I think what most is expecting to see today is if Xbone sustained the sales of if June was only a flash boost due launch.

 

[Amir0x]

oh today is NPD today? Hurray

 

[Aquamarine]

Will you still be able to provide your magic numbers?

I don't know what you're talking about!

NPD has the PS4 around 3.6M up to June. It's highly unlikely that any game will sell to 1/3 of the userbase in a couple days.

It's probably around 500K +/- 100K

I'm talking about how many it's sold as of today. Not for the couple days of July NPD.

In an interview with Phil Spencer (can't cite who did the interview) - he sort of down played the significance of the monthly (defeat) numbers as "small" as opposed to what's expected come 4th quarter (holiday). Maybe a sign for today's outcome?

 

[Hoo-doo]

I think what most is expecting to see today is if Xbone sustained the sales of if June was only a flash boost due launch.

I predicted sub-100K because I feel last month was pent up sales from May and June combined seeing as they trumpeted the pricedrop a month in advance.

May was anemic, and june saw a bump (obviously). I think sales will slump back down as everyone on the fence about an Xbox One would have jumped in when the 399$ model entered the market.

Who knows though, the new price might have raised the sales baseline for XBO quite a bit.

 

[BlackJace]

It'll be interesting to see how much the Wii U dropped from Mario Kart month.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Good month.

Any surprises?

Overall growth in the teens... pretty good

 

[Chobel]

Good month.

Any surprises?

 

[Aquamarine]

Any surprises?

The NPD thread hasn't even started yet!

 

[vin-buc]

Good month.

For........?

 

[SDCowboy]

Good month.

For whom? All?

 

[Aquamarine]

For........?

NPD

 

[Jomjom]

Good month.

FOR VITA TOO? PLEASE SAY YES!

I know the answer is no because there aren't even any Vitas on shelves.

 

[unknownstranger]

I'm expecting a pretty big drop off. The price drop was early in June and was known weeks before hand. Plus it's 4 weeks this month instead of 5 for NPD.

600k still seems incredibly low. I'd be shocked if it hasn't sold over a million by this point.

It's probably slightly over a million worldwide. 600k seems pretty high for US alone.

 

[Jinfash]

600k still seems incredibly low. I'd be shocked if it hasn't sold over a million by this point.

I'd be pretty shocked if it's above 400k, tbh. Little was shared of the game till the week of release. I also suspect it had a big impact on HW.

Then again I could be very wrong, which is why I don't partake in predicting in the first place.

 

[SDCowboy]

NPD

Good as in good sales or in terms of excitement?

 

[Chobel]

Overall growth in the teens... pretty good

I don't get it.

 

[CosmicQueso]

I don't get it.

Market spend across HW SW and ACC compared to last July.

 

[Welfare]

Good month.

Everyone over 1? Nah nah nah. Over 2. Has to be. Right?

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Market spend across HW SW and ACC

The last of us

 

[Majmun]

I don't get it.

What's not to get? Teenagers bought the most games last month.

 

[Jomjom]

Market spend across HW SW and ACC compared to last July.

Was Monty Oliver's reports right? Xbox outsold all competitors? I believed that guy!

 

[BlackBuzzard]

When to start F5ing secret leak site

Leak site is done. Dont expect anymore. They removed all the previous charts and replaced it with a picture of PS4.

 

[vinnygambini]

Obviously the Queen's comment is in relation to Wii U... pls let my predicitions ring true this month.

 

[PJV3]

What's not to get? Teenagers bought the most games last month.

I thought he meant teens were getting bigger.

 

[Coulomb_Barrier]

What's the ETA for the results? About 40 mins?

 

[CosmicQueso]

Teens in terms of %.

Seriously, y'all be crazy. Crazy funny!

 

[Dragonborn]

I don't think the X1 will drop significantly. The price cut must have had some effect, and if it didn't then things are worse than I'd think. It'll drop a bit due to one less week but it shouldn't drop that much

 

[Insane Metal]

ETA? D:

 

[Chobel]

What's not to get? Teenagers bought the most games last month.

But where would he get that info from? Does NPD also track the age of gamers?

Ah, you mean that. My bad, English is not my native language.

Don't forget about impatient.

I'm live on @KCBSNews in 5 min discussing the new phone app, Humin, and why you should even care.


I guess that means no tweets from him for now.

Panel data. Different data warehouse. Not a full sample.

I agree, I think it won't see a significant drop although I can't remember if that opinion is reflected in my predictions...which were made a while ago.

 

[vinnygambini]

Don't forget about impatient.

Blasphemy

 

[beast786]

I cant believe I missed this month.

But I fully expect the unbelievable E3 MS had in june to roll its momentum in full force in July. The first full month of Post E3 bonanza and listening to consumers of kinectless SKU.


I will salute the winner from the sidelines.

 

[spatenfloot]

FOR VITA TOO? PLEASE SAY YES!

I know the answer is no because there aren't even any Vitas on shelves.

That's because they've been flying off the shelves.

 

[SwiftDeath]

Yay

Good to see the industry not die quite yet

Also for those curious

Time left until NPD PR is usually released

 

[lightning2k3]

I don't know what you're talking about!

He's talking about your amazing math and ability to derive numbers from publicly announced information and historical data.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

That's because they've been flying off the shelves.

 

[metalslimer]

When was the last time there was double digit growth in both HW and SW

 

[Jomjom]

That's because they've been flying off the shelves.

Flying off the shelves just like little fairies.

Because both are pure fantasy.

 

[vinnygambini]

When was the last time there was double digit growth in both HW and SW

Wii DS era? Honestly I can't recall.

Funny? Ellie's jokes!

 

[CosmicQueso]

Not each... combined. All combined.

 

[Bruno MB]

When was the last time there was double digit growth in both HW and SW

July 2013 sales were extremely low and there wasn't two new systems, the surprising thing would be that there wasn't a sizable growth.

3DS - 150,000
360 - 107,000
PS3 - 79,000
Wii ~ 35.000
NDS ~ 31.000
WiiU ~ 29.000
Vita ~ 16.000

PS4 alone should nearly match Xbox 360 + PS3 + Wii + Wii U.
