January will be an interesting month.

Nah it's that one month were most just don't care.

 

[Elandyll]

I think some people doesn't pay much attention and because PS4 and XBO aren't growing much in december, they think Nintendo isn't too.

Thanks to Nintendo GaF for alerting me ahead of time. I upped my Ninty numbers ahead of polling close

 

[jmaine_ph]

January will be an interesting month.

Not at all. PS4 has that in the bag. Sales will be similar to last January maybe higher.

 

[LifEndz]

The first three years are pre-season. 2016 is when the games begin.

Now...now it's for real.

 

[jayu26]

This would be perfect if it had:

Some Rice, motherfucker.

 

[Chobel]

January will be dead.

And that's interesting.

Where is the proof of the PS4 win? The source comes from Sony after all, they could be fudging the numbers to make things look slightly more optimistic than they actually are

That is possible.

It goes even beyond that! They're buying their own Playstation 4s!!!!!111111

 

[CosmicQueso]

Now did both the XB1 and PS4 sell 5 million in 2015?

How do you feel about rounding by tenths?

Those no good sack shooters!

I mean...they must be. IT HAS NO GAMES for crying out loud!

 

[Welfare]

Ehh.

So close.

 

[Ryng_tolu]

How do you feel about rounding by tenths?

Looks like XB1 is around 150k over what i predicted.

 

[darkinstinct]

How do you feel about rounding by tenths?

4.9 million Xbox One confirmed

 

[Inuhanyou]

They buy them, stock them all in New Zealand somewhere and then pretend users are buying them from stores.

Its actually quite an ingenious plan. I'm not saying this is the case, its just an interesting possibility that people might want to think about before SonyGaf starts celebrating with the rice cookers boiling

 

[orochi91]

And that's interesting.

You jest, but it will kind of be interesting to see how big the drop off will be after this mammoth holiday season, especially for the PS4.

 

[onanie]

Just curious, but why is there a gap between the release at 4pm EST and the "coverage" starting from 6-6:30?

It takes time to get to 24000 RPMs.

 

[allan-bh]

Looks like XB1 is around 150k over what i predicted.

What's your prediction?

 

[Cess007]

4.9 million Xbox One confirmed

How did they sell ".9" of a console??!?!

Spoiler

lol

 

[AdventureRacing]

I guess I needed to add a TM after my post to convey the sarcasm.

 

[Ryng_tolu]

Looks like XB1 is over 1.38 million, but under 1.43 million.

 

[modalife]

LOL sure, because the PS4 is selling so bad to the point where Sony has to spin the numbers and their PR statements.

Oh wait...a....minute.....

 

[The Mad Draklor]

Long live rice!!!

Sony's PlayStation 4 was the best selling console in the U.S. for December 2015 and for the whole calendar year.

Good month for PS4 and XB1. Both did close to what I expected.

this is what he predicted for ps4 and xbox one
https://twitter.com/ZhugeEX/status/687741297352949761

PS4 > 1,700,000
XB1 < 1,500,000

 

[LetTheWookieWin]

Rice, rice everywhere! It's magical.

 

[allan-bh]

Looks like XB1 is over 1.38 million, but under 1.43 million.

I predicted 1410k... that's good

 

[jayu26]

My prediction is good, if true.
I checked again, I thought I changed mine, but didn't. It's off by 50k

 

[slavesnyder]

You jest, but it will kind of be interesting to see how big the drop off will be after this mammoth holiday season, especially for the PS4.

Exactly. There is nothing wrong with staring at a crash.
Just wonder who will take a bigger hit there.

My prediction is good, if true.

I am too afraid to look

 

[Ryng_tolu]

I predicted 1410k... that's good

Yup, you are close.

 

[ethomaz]

About 300k gap for PS4 this month?

No country for bone.

 

[Welfare]

Damn my Xbox optimism. Still a really good month.

About 300k gap for PS4 this month?

No country for bone.

We don't know what the PS4 is at. A bigger gap than November would be a surprise.

 

[Obliterator]

Both these consoles do so well in the Holidays

Looks like my predictions for the PS4 and XB1 are not that far off

 

[LordOcidax]

NPD is becoming like F1 in the Michael Schumacher era. We need a Newx and fresh driver around.

 

[Conduit]

Well, if that so, my prediction : [XB1] 1320k

 

[allan-bh]

Yeah, but kinda mediocre in some other months of the year.

 

[FuturusX]

Long live rice!!!

Absolutely, after the PS4 is just memory, they'll always be rice!

I'd like to see Xbox One, WiiU or PS4 compete with rice numbers. Sales are always though the roof. The true master...rice.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Time for crapgamer to make another video soon.

 

[Primethius]

My 1450k XB1 prediction stays safe... for now.

 

[slavesnyder]

Could someone give a well-visible warning when the result thread starts? I often miss this and wonder where everyone else has gone.

 

[Chobel]

Fuck! Looks I'm way off.

 

[Welfare]

6:30pm EST. 50 minutes from now.

PS4 is not the Wii in NPD.

 

[Fat4all]

About 300k gap for PS4 this month?

No country for bone.

What would that bring the gap to? 1.4 mil?

 

[Ryng_tolu]

My original XB1 predictions was 1.4m
Then 1.3m, and then 1.25m

Why i'm so stupid?

 

[Ray Down]

About 300k gap for PS4 this month?

No country for bone.

I read this as No country for old bone.

Now I wish I had some skills to do a nice edit.

You are much nicer than your avatar looks.

 

[HeWhoWalks]

Yeah, but kinda mediocre in some other months of the year.

They can't do big numbers all year round. Besides, the PS4 continues to break records, despite those few "mediocre months'.
