Old gen consoles didn't hit 6 figures combined. That's crazy in its own way.

Could we get an YTD on those? Not asking you in particular, but we got them in January and then nothing the rest of the year.

 

[Loudninja]

So this NPD destroy predictions n a different way lol.

 

[Occam]

Just in case people can't access Twitter from work:

How does he know?
(Yay, PS4 won).

 

[Conduit]

So ~1540k?

So, around 1200k-1300k for Xbone?

 

[gcubed]

I love fake Kaz but a simple un-charted is funnier.

that was tweeted in 2014

 

[N.Domixis]

Looks like this npd will be opposite of what happen last year.

 

[velvet_nitemare]

I thought the Splatoon/Smash bundle would push the hardware more.

It won target online Black Friday sales dont ya know. Turns out that might not have been much of a sample size despite some people getting excited.

 

[anothertech]

Lord Zod, and now the Starwars hype and Starwars PS4 bundle at $299...

December is going to destroy lives.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Old gen console weren't at $300 in 2 years

Try reading that again.

Just check this post:

Thanks, I hate missing a good sales thread meltdown. I don't think anything will ever top the 'New Zealand' post.

 

[Mpl90]

Insane for PS4. Bundles early in the month and $299 in Black Friday provided a huge month.

Dat COD/Fallout 4/Star Wars power as well.

...The more I think about it, the more I realise November was stuffed with major, big sellers, even more than usual.

 

[Patapwn]

Sony setting up Uncharted 4 nicely with all those packin NDCs

 

[Bits N Pieces]

Crazy bonkers numbers for Sony. They have absolutely nailed every aspect of this gen so far from the box itself to the marketing and partnerships. Big Christmas bonuses at Sony HQ incoming!

 

[RedAssedApe]

Not sure I understand since this month was far more about the $299 price point than anything else.

obviously price was a factor but people were also very interested in the narrative about true exclusives vs. exclusive marketing

NoGamesStation is a beast.

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

i was way too conservative with 1.2

 

[StoopKid]

Ps4 yoy has to be amazing!

 

[StrongBlackVine]

....

Perhaps Sony should extend that $299 price-point for a few more days.

No need to concede such an important shopping week to MS, especially if it's just a matter of several days.

I bet Sony will extend it. No reason to give up any momentum at this point.

 

[Loudninja]

Yes we must see the bundle breakdown!

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Biggest month for a PS system ever?

Lawdy.

 

[Kysen]

When is the new thread going up?

Old gen lived long enough. Was about time to die

 

[Chocolate & Vanilla]

Since when did ZhugeEX become a source for NPD numbers? From what I recall, he always had to wait for leaks like the rest of us plebs.

 

[Mrbob]

Biggest month for a PS system ever?

Lawdy.

I thought PS2 went over 2 million in December. Biggest November I believe.

 

[Hunter S.]

My only hope is the sales translate to more PS exclusives. Thus far I have had no reason to dual own the xbos and PS like the last two gens. Sony has mostly kept it this way and it is cool.

 

[Mpl90]

PS2 best November < 1.32 million
PS4 best November > 1.50 million

It was a different time, with November sales not playing a role as huge as today in overall Holiday seasons. Still, yeah, 1,500,000 for PS4 in November is huge.

Eh, I don't know, they have the force with them.

 

[Ryan_MSF]

i wonder what goes through someone's head posting stuff like this

like... they're faceless corporations only interested in getting your money. why cheer for one or another

smh

 

[onQ123]

LOL true story.

Did you lie to me?


I asked if one of the consoles was close to 2 million. if PS4 is over 1.5 it's closer to 2 million than 1 million.

 

[M.D]

What was the highest November for the Wii?

 

[EventHorizon]

Just in case people can't access Twitter from work:

I'm extremely happy for Sony, but this is hurting my NPD prediction ego a lot. It is only my second time trying. The first time many moons ago I got creamed because I thought Amazon software sales had some relation to hardware sale. Now my second attempt happens in an unprecedented record breaking month. The feels. They hurt

 

[MatrixMan.EXE]

What a night to come back from a one month ban. Results thread should be fun.

Just enjoying life in the old rocking chair. Watching the next gen take over. Congrats to both Sony and Microsoft on an outstanding holiday season from a sales perspective.

Good to hear, try to post more if you can although I know it gets more difficult as we get older

 

[Chobel]

Hey chobel, which post can I find on what bet you lost ITT?

This one

Both the Xbox One and PS4 in November 2015 will be higher than 1.23m.

This is a bet I will take.

Today is not a good day for me

 

[Toki767]

What was the highest November for the Wii?

Over 2 million.

 

[allan-bh]

What was the highest November for the Wii?

2.04m in 2008

 

[Boke1879]

I remember Colin from KindaFunny and many others after E3 were saying how the PS4 was going to be absolutely destroyed this Holiday season because they didn't have a premiere first party game this holiday.

Boy how wrong they were.

Aside from MS winning Oct. by only 35k it seems Sony made that ground back up and then some.

 

[RedAssedApe]

Since when did ZhugeEX become a source for NPD numbers? From what I recall, he always had to wait for leaks like the rest of us plebs.

cq kind of confirmed it when he said 85% increase yoy no?

 

[Averon]

What are the PS4 and XBO's LTD now in the US?

 

[Iacobellis]

Boom.

 

[Ryng_tolu]

It was a different time, with November sales not playing a role as huge as today in overall Holiday seasons. Still, yeah, 1,500,000 for PS4 in November is huge.

I know, indeed PS2 December numbers for PS4 are impossible, like >2.7 million in 2002.

Spoiler

and then in December NPD PS4 will sell more than PS2 again lmfao

 

[DriftingSpirit]

I thought PS2 went over 2 million in December. Biggest November I believe.

Ah, I got ahead of myself. Biggest November, it is.

 

[Tankard]

This makes me giddy.

I swear, sometimes it feels like Sony just refuses to land the finishing blow, with regards to the XB1's prospects here in NA.

 

[Mpl90]

What was the highest November for the Wii?

IIRC, 2 millions. And it was still selling out...so much that December was slightly lower than November (1.9 millions).
