[Lichter]

Congrats Sony, but that's boring. :/

Knack 2 announcement broke MS streak.

You mean the announcement made during the month after November?

 

[dragonzdogma]

They had some great sales this holiday and the PS4 Pro had to have helped as well.

Slight aside...

I ended up buying 3 PS4 Pros...

look what you've done!

 

[RootCause]

I really need to get a Pro. But I'm hoping there's a special themed one for RE7, or maybe Gravity Rush 2.

 

[yuraya]

Sony lost all the preseason games but now they are winning games in the regular season. Bad news for Microsoft.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Congrats Sony, but that's boring. :/

We could all sense it coming.

 

[Rymuth]

Except the Xbox for the past three months?

Closing the gap from 1.8 million to 1.5 million isn't stopping anything.

It's more like a runner running 20 laps around a guy and then stopping for a bit to watch them catch up.

or in visual terms

 

[Y2Kev]

I read it as n64

Gaming was better then

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

As expect with pro coming out that month .
The question is will Pro also help them win Dec .

no, the slim will do that

 

[msdstc]

Holy shit this is great news for Sony! I seriously did not expect that. With the upcoming lineup next year it'll be hard for msft to snatch the title back.

 

[Wagram]

PS4 had an auto revive scroll on.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Ahahaha

Can't wait for more spin, straight from the mauth.

 

[Peroroncino]

Well they launched a 'new system' so no surprise here, december is gonna be more interesting to me.

 

[Afrikan]

I wonder how many decided to hold off till next year for the Scorpio, instead of getting a Xbox 1 S.

to announce it a year and half in advance.... man I don't know if that was a good idea.

 

[Smokey_Run]

Congrats Sony, but that's boring. :/

The announcement was so powerful it reverberated back through time and pushed the PS4 to victory.

 

[rpg_fan]

December will be interesting.

Aaaand we're back.

 

[FinaruDensetsu]

Right. It was still weird to me though. Happened with 2 retailers, both Amazon and Target. Maybe they (Amazon/Target) do it just to boost their holiday numbers?

December is still holiday numbers (which also includes the last week of November for NPD), so there's really no benefit to doing that.

Knack to the future!!

 

[Putty]

Wheres Hindle when you need him...

 

[GeoramA]

Interesting. And without the Star Wars hype that they had last year.

 

[rjcc]

Between the Pro and the Slim how could it not have?

 

[Possumowner]

Interesting,wonder how long before MS manages to win a month again...I'm guessing a good while

 

[EmiPrime]

And this was before Knack 2's announcement.

 

[Guymelef]

no, the slim will do that

Yep, but December will have Cyber Monday sales, where PS4 Pro had nice deals.

 

[Trago]

Interesting,wonder how long before MS manages to win a month again...I'm guessing a good while

Maybe when Scorpio is released?

 

[Putty]

Scratch that, Hanspampel is the new Hindle.

 

[bananafactory]

December Npd will be interesting

 

[TheStruggler]

The fact that is it took the original ps4, the slim the ps4 pro and VR to beat Microsoft in november in the end is still a win for Microsoft, they may have lost the battle but microsoft won the war.

Spoiler

Is what one fanboy I know will say on his video/stream tonight

 

[Carl]

Not really shocking. The king returns.

 

[Brix]

Numbers don't lie. What is that like over $50 million sold? JEEEEZ

 

[benny_a]

Better gaming maybe, but next month's NPD threads have never been this interesting!

 

[Bubba_Sparks]

I bought one on Black Friday here in Canada! Not a bad deal, and there seem to be some exclusive games coming out that look interesting. I'm basically going to use it to play the exclusives and do all my other gaming on my PC.

 

[Kolx]

Sony just released a new console. If there was no Pro MS would have probably won their 5th month in a raw. It's still amazing how MS managed to turn things around in the US and only be beaten due to a new console release.

You don't need a stream it's in this thread lol

 

[The Emperor]

Congrats to PS4!!

All thanks to FFXV.

As the king of RPG's returned, so too did this gens sales king!

Wait. Sony released a new console!? Now it all makes sense. Stop the thread, peeps. Sony accomplished nothing of note here.

This is why we need numbers. Because as of this time we have no basis for this.

What have Microsoft turned around?

Or the PS4 and PS4 slim would have sold better in the preceding months. Quite a few people were waiting on the Pro. Food for thought.

 

[Vena]

Up or down YoY?

Both are likely down YoY as we've seen no PR (unless I've missed it) to say otherwise.

 

[Akainu]

The fuck is wrong with some of you people in this thread? Do you not realize that Knack transcends both time and space?

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Strange. I thought Sony was doing damage control announcing the 50 mil sold numbers.

If there was no Pro, some people would have never waited for Pro and instead of it they would have bought a PS4 and maybe MS would have never won a NPD this year.

 

[Electret]

We getting Sony PR, or will they stay silent?

 

[Boke1879]

December should be nice. It'll include the Saturday after Black friday when you could get a Slim for $212 and the Pro so a nice decrease in price thanks for a target specific deal that amazon decided to price match.

 

[WooHooAlex]

I actually didn't expect that, to be honest.

 

[ForkNetwork]

No surprise really with releasing a "new" console in that month.

This is why i called it as well, but like I said on October, this month should be the interesting one, and the one Microsoft actually has a chance of winning.

 

[jeffram]

Didn't they say they had their best Black Friday ever?

God bless cerny,knack is the gift that keeps on giving lol
