I'm assuming the symbols are the wrong way around for the 8th gen systems. EDIT: NVM just realised it says LTD.
Any chance of a pie graph?

For a sec there, I thought it said the Wii U outsold the PS4 and XB1 in December.
Ouch at GT6 and the Vita.
Yeah, 1500-(526+457+431) = 86K.

Oh shit!
I guess that makes sense. Nintendo sold more WiiU's than I expected and Sony and MS less of their systems.
Vita's just... ow.

What??? Really? I thought the Ps4 would have passed Wii U!
Edit:
Wow at the GT6 number! Hope Polyphony learns from it's mistakes. Most likely not but one can only hope.
Just Dance makes sense since the Xbox One comes with a camera, while the PS4 doesn't.

Doubtful Wii U LTD is ahead.
And Vita's horrendous numbers aren't even worth mentioning anymore.

Holy shit, GT6 may be the biggest bomb of the year.
PS4 did not save the PSV. No halo effect.
It's good Microsoft brought more first party games to launch as well as keeping supply available to eager buyers. Not really a negative on either front.
We, as gamers, should applaud their devotion to providing content on a newly launched system, right?

Really? Disappointment.
Perhaps by your definition, but MS considers publishing and helping with development as 2nd party. They did the same with Epic and Gears, of which they did not own the IP either.

it's LTD, you would sure hope Wii U managed at least ~200k to stay ahead for one more month
and ok next NPD thread I'm predicting 5k for Vita, I will not get burned again
(inb4 it dives to 3k in January NPD)

Why do you assume that? We know PS4 is higher than Xbox One LTD. Wii U still higher than PS4 is also unsurprising.
Edit: Ah, you caught your mistake.

GT bombed like shit, Japan's first week sold more than that and they were fairly bad.
Of course not. Wii u still had a full year.
Unprecedented sales.

Damn.
actually dead.
like actually seriously really dead. good fucking lord.
edit: oh i thought it went down from november. that's not as catastrophic as i thought, but that is not good by any measure. i wonder if this device will crack 2m in the us.

Yep. It will likely surpass it by March though.
I wonder how long before Vita is pulled from the shelves besides specialty stores. Retailers can't be happy giving Vita any shelf space.
Ya, I forgot it was published by MS. Point conceded.
Damn.
And here I was hoping that vita would at least do a sprinkle above 100k here... ow
it's dead, jim

I'm impressed that he replied to the tweet at all. Hell, I don't care if he tries to qualify the 'yes', I appreciate that he answered a question that didn't put his company on top. I wish we got more PR like that. Definitely a step up from Nelson.

Vita is completely dead at this point. Sony should just scrap it.
And damn at GT6 bombing so hard. Hmm, maybe we'll get a PS4 port because of it?

Why scea didn't put out a tearaway bundle with memory card for the holidays is beyond me.
Also lol at people saying scrap it, not going to happen. It can exist as a niche product still, and Japan's sales have improved.

This usually happens a few hours after NPD has been revealed. People just start losing their shit.

My brain is having trouble processing those Vita sales. It's trying to think of a comparable example, but it's just grasping at air.

good with gravy
Holy Vita.
December December! <100k. It is dead in the US.

Just dance is playable without the camera though, but with move controllers, not sure about the cost of Move in US, here in UK, you can pick them up very cheaply. Though your right about the camera potentially having an effect on that one.

Vita is finished in USA retail. Under 100K is worse than abysmal. There are no words for its performance.

So if we count Dead Rising as a 3rd party game published by MS (which it is), MS sold more first party exclusive and 3rd party software in the US.
Looks like Dead Rising will easily meet the 2 million projected sales ww.
