Not surprising that TLOU is first then.

 

[Aquamarine]

That's Junes games.

By last month I thought he meant last reporting month.

Here is July:

It's all about how MANY not 1st place IMO.

 

[FTF]

Oh, right! Numbers today!

 

[cebri.one]

Not surprising that TLOU is first then.

Remember TLOU launched the 29th ¡¡

 

[theprodigy]

He's referring to this I assume: § For the second consecutive month, PlayStation was #1 in combined home console hardware sales (PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3).

#1=/=more than 50%

edit: 2nd consecutive month, huh? I thought that streak would have ran all the way back to January

So, nothing. Lol

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Good, good, good.

 

[stryke]

That means my predictions of 200k for PS4 and 199k for Xbone are off. =(

Could have told you that before this info came out.

 

[A_Gorilla]

Will MS stay silent again?

 

[Dragonborn]

Will MS stay silent again?

I'm surprised, at least Nintendo puts out some numbers. MS loved talking about NPD before.

 

[vinnygambini]

It's 6:30 pm NPD top 10 should be available?

 

[SwiftDeath]

Will MS stay silent again?

I think so personally which is disappointing

 

[Carl]

So basically nothing other than TLOU then, lol. Still, good for ND.

 

[CosmicQueso]

the numbers are still horrible.

Kinda like saying the sky is blue and water's wet at this point though, ain't it?

 

[Jimmyfenix]

MS will probably send their PR to Geoff i think.

I'm sure Phil Spencer will keep chattering away.

 

[B.O.O.M]

Kinda like saying the sky is blue and water's wet at this point though, ain't it?

sure but it's still accurate. However to be honest I expected it to be at least a bit less horrible than this by now.

 

[Frillen]

Remember TLOU launched the 29th ¡¡

I know, but games tends to sell quite a lot the first couple of days, plus there was pretty much zero other games coming out in July.

 

[SDCowboy]

§ PlayStation 4 games accounted for more than half of total next generation software sales.

Hot DAMN!

 

[Toki767]

Weird that NPD grouped The Last of Us Remastered with The Last of Us.

 

[gundamkyoukai]

as expected.

 

[SwiftDeath]

Wow minecraft at #2 probably isn't a good sign I'd think

 

[ethomaz]

Amazing PS4.

 

[Markitron]

Will MS stay silent again?

Im sure they will mention something about the XB1 being their fastest selling console ever, and that sales are up x% on the same period as last month/year/generation

Tbf it's still doing quite well, just not relative to the PS4.

NPD:

http://venturebeat.com/2014/08/14/july-2014-npd-ps4-xbox-one-have-another-huge-month/

I didn't know FIFA sold that well in the US, or is it just a bump from the World Cup?

 

[Carl]

4. Watch Dogs (PS4, 360, PS3, Xbox One, PC)

Eesh

 

[Blanquito]

So... in the ballpark (based off of Cosmic's hints so far) of around PS4 = XBO + 90k (approximately).

And XBO slightly up compared with last month's weekly sales (around 32 or so this month). Approximately, of course.

 

[Jomjom]

Could have told you that before this info came out.

I meant 210k vs 199k. I thought it would be close this month because of the momentum for Xbone.

 

[Gator86]

sure but it's still accurate. However to be honest I expected it to be at least a bit less horrible than this by now.

I'm sorry, friend, but it's time to let that optimism go. The Wii U is where it's going to be. Things aren't going to turn around.

Someone get the thread started!

(I figure as soon as I do it'll have already been created)

 

[Welfare]

Ghosts XBONE jumping ahead as lead platform in sales. Lack of Titanfall bundle being an influence maybe?

 

[teiresias]

What's up with Watch Dogs cratering on XB1? Egads!!

http://venturebeat.com/2014/08/14/july-2014-npd-ps4-xbox-one-have-another-huge-month/

Xbone version of Ghost is higher than all other versions, why did that happen?

 

[SwiftDeath]

lol at the DS version of Lego Marvel Super Heroes beating all next-gen skus

 

[Jimmyfenix]

I meant 210k vs 199k. I thought it would be close this month because of the momentum for Xbone.

What momentum ?

Good to see Sniper Elite.

 

[kingocfs]

Minecraft.

 

[Mory Dunz]

Why's FIFA so high? Ultimate team?

 

[Dragonborn]

Ghosts XBONE jumping ahead as lead platform in sales. Lack of Titanfall bundle being an influence maybe?

Probably, TF only remained as high as it did here and in the UK thanks to bundles.

 

[Frillen]

4. Watch Dogs (PS4, 360, PS3, Xbox One, PC)

Wow, that's a really bad showing for the Bone.

10. Lego Marvel Super Heroes (360, PS3, 3DS, DS, PS4, Wii U, Xbox One, Vita, PC)

9 SKUs lol.

 

[B.O.O.M]

I'm sorry, friend, but it's time to let that optimism go. The Wii U is where it's going to be. Things aren't going to turn around.

Oh trust me as an avid fan of vita I do not know of this thing u call optimism..it died about about 2 E3s ago lol

 

[theprodigy]

Kinda like saying the sky is blue and water's wet at this point though, ain't it?

as long as people still think a recovery is arriving any day now, it will continue to be said

People want to spend money on games... not enough games to spend money on.

In July, U.S. consumers spent $514.3 million on new gaming hardware, software, and accessories, according to industry-tracking firm The NPD Group. That’s up 16 percent over last year’s $443.1 million.

“Similar to the pattern seen in seven out of the last nine months, strong growth in hardware sales offset declines in software sales in July 2014 while accessory sales had modest growth,” NPD analyst Liam Callahan said.

 

[SDCowboy]

Any word on the actual console numbers yet?

 

[stryke]

Wow at Lego. So even DS SKU still sells better than current gen consoles.

 

[libregkd]

Eesh

Not any different than last month iirc. I can imagine a lot of cross-gen games will be similar, with the game's launch month being the only time the XBO version edges out over PS3/360.

 

[vicissitudes]

Where's the NPD thread?

 

[metalslimer]

Eesh

Damn that;s not a good look for such a big 3rd party game.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

Xbone version of Ghost is higher than all other versions, why did that happen?

they need something to play. xbox has no games

Spoiler

in july.

 

[Jomjom]

Wow Xbox One outselling PS4 for CoD.
