I think the xb1 ps4 gap is really tiny

Xb1 won by a nose.

 

[SgtCobra]

All these references.
I can't hold them.

 

[GravityInsanity]

I'm glad they lost. NPD is not as fun as it used to be. Hope they win next month as well. Also, still no Uncharted 4 sales? What's taking Sony so long.

Xbox One outsold PlayStation 4 in July

http://venturebeat.com/2016/08/11/xbox-one-outsold-playstation-4-in-july/

Has this been posted already?

 

[BY2K]

Xbox One outsold the PS4 in July so now harware sales matter again for Microsoft instead of those precious MAUs.

 

[allan-bh]

We’re honored that Xbox One was the best-selling console in the U.S. in July, and that total gaming hours on Xbox consoles globally were up 18 percent over last year, reaching 1.55 billion hours

That's what I wanted to know

Also Xbox One S 2TB is nearly sold out in US.

I would hope the PS4 is down. They confirmed the Neo so it makes sense sales should reflect that.

I doubt that has much of anything to do with it honestly. XB1 was available for a great damn price. Gotta see how much the gap is now.

 

[Dinjooh]

I honestly doubt that the little confirmations they've done has any effect at all on the marketplace at large. They may have some effect on the hardcore community, but they already have a PS4.

 

[Mory Dunz]

So no thread?

That'd be more this month than last anyway.

 

[allan-bh]

Next week with public top 10.

 

[jroc74]

Also funny how now all of a sudden console sales matter to MS.

Makes all those defending MAU seem funny too.

 

[Mory Dunz]

Next week with public top 10.

oh, lame.

Will aqua leak?

No it doesnt. Where did you read that they gave out hardware number because they won?

 

[allan-bh]

yes, later tonight.

 

[Ryng_tolu]

Thread is slow huh? Let's post more Pokégif!

 

[samar11]

Wow PS4 at third place, Sony must be panicking right now. Incoming PS4 fire sales ? loll

 

[Inuhanyou]

No it doesnt. Where did you read that they gave out hardware number because they won?

Well they are not going to say they are number 2 when they lose...

Sony unfortunately, are in a bad spot until the NEO conference, they can't lower the price of OG PS4 or do anything to mitigate Xbox S's momentum until September. They better come with a blowout for NEO presentation cause my guess is they have no equivalent Slimline version like MS does

Lol . This guy never ceases to amaze me.

[Sterok]

Did Nintendo PR faint from having good news for once, or will they not bother to say anything until next week?

 

[Conduit]

I think Sony doesn't bother with that.

 

[ekgrey]

Wait, which Nintendo console are we talking about? It has to be the New 3DS?

All 3DS systems combined.

Yea whatever gap they lose by in these two months they will make it up in September alone and if neo releases in September as well then they would get a massive bump

Don't think they really care right now. I'm sure PS4 is selling well enough at the current rice point and their margins are fine.

All they really need to do is announce a price drop for the OG model when they announce the Neo. That's it. Enthusiasts pick up Neo and a $300 PS4 leading into the holidays will do it's job.

 

[Bruno MB]

guys come on, this early data has no digital sales for anything[/B]

also nice Evo boost

That EVO was going to meaningfully boost sales was always simply a delusion some Street Fighter V fans clung onto.

 

[MANUELF]

Considering this is the month of the story mode update I think is bad

 

[allan-bh]

I can't believe how badly Capcom managed SF V project. At least Sony's money must be great.

 

[Sangetsu-II]

Amazon Prime day and the 500GB model got cut to $249 in the last week.

It's was still $249 since last week btw

Thread is slow huh? Let's post more Pokégif!

Die, Die, Die !

 

[Ryng_tolu]

3DS 2016 sales are back higher than 2014 sales.

January to July:

2014 - 872,000
2015 - 1,175,000
2016 > 874K

(Numbers may not be 100% correct)

Die, Die, Die !

D:

 

[Unknown?]

Sooo $100 cheaper(+store promotions) and barely able to edge out its competitor? Lol They'll surely win August because of all the pent up sells from June/July.

 

[RedAssedApe]

Lol . This guy never ceases to amaze me.

Needs asterisk with footnote on his tweets 😂

Some people might crucify me for this, but I always thought Greenberg and Major Nelson were hypocrites.

Anyway, still waiting for the numbers. Expecting a small gap either way, probably less than 15K

 

[Bgamer90]

Many still thought PS4 would win July though. ::shrug::

Agree -- plus August is usually a low month for console sales anyway.

 

[cyber_ninja]

August is a given imo. What I'd like to know is if Sony can put Neo on store shelves by late September/early October. If they manage to do it Ps4 will win the holidays by a landslide imo.

I would hope so.

 

[Kouriozan]

3DS>Xone>PS4>OUYA

Pokêmons took over the world again, didn't expect GO to have that much impact though

 

[N.Domixis]

I would hope so.

Wouldn't surprise me their Destiny and Cod bundles are doing wonders for them if they do that again.

 

[therealbigrich]

Shouldn't even count right lol

 

[therealbigrich]

I might be crazy but unless Neo is at a great price I cant see it making a huge impact . Really don't see many people picking up the premium version vs the cheaper still capable regular PS4. It could come out at for a great price and be a really good value

 

[gamz]

It's new and more powerful. It'll be HUGE!

I don't think anyone is expecting Neo to start outselling the OG model especially if the OG model gets a price cut.

I'm hoping the Neo price is $400. That is imo the sweet spot that could get existing owners to upgrade.

 

[The God]

itll sell lik hotcakez and push ps4 to 300 million

 

[therealbigrich]

I could be wrong I guess I want to see exactly what it will be before I saying its going to sell like hot cakes or just do ok . Still thinking anything can happen with neo

 

[ekgrey]

All 3DS systems combined.

Ah, right. Thanks!

 

[samar11]

OG PS4 and PS4 Neo sales will all be counted as ps4 sales, correct?

 

[N.Domixis]

If sony counts it as ps4 then yes.
