When Xbox one barely outsells the severely supply constrained PS4 their PR screams from the High heavens. Get outsold 2-1 a month later...no comment.

Lol.

Great sale, glad to see it. So pumped tomb raider DE charted. Deserved.

 

[Mory Dunz]

How much did the 360 sell in Dec?

 

[Metalingus5150]

Are we about to step into a new dimension of crazy

 

[dragonbane]

We need some Tearaway numbers please

 

[dmr87]

Not PS3, but I still don't believe that's true, lol.

Hmmm

 

[noobasuar]

As someone who just watched the Wire, this scene is so amazing in the show. Like top 5 scene ever. Such an amazing reaction. Everyone watch the Wire!

 

[StoopKid]

I just can't believe it wii u > 360?

Just no way.

 

[Finalizer]

Wait wat...

360>Wii U> Wii> PS3?

or about as ridiculous

PS3>Wii U>360?

my head is full of wat

Seriously, just stick with Wii U > PS3, that at least doesn't hurt the brain to rationalize.

 

[bigmf]

Wait, what just happened? Prior gen sales turned upside down?

 

[shinra-bansho]

Are we about to step into a new dimension of crazy

Needs clarification. There are two possibilities of Wii U>Wii>PS3 which would be bizarre, or PS3>Wii U>360 which is all sorts of crazy as well.

 

[SarcasticD]

awwwwww yeah.

 

[LegendofLex]

How many countries had the wii launched in by January 2007? Just curious. Personally I think Sony stretched their production too thin launching in so many countries at once.

Maybe not the best source, but... looks like 29?

[Yawnier]

360 numbers being lower than PS3 and Wii U would be a real plot twist.

Is creamsugar counting the Wii (not wii u) for "last gen consoles"?

 

[IncandescentPrecept]

Wait wat...

360>Wii U> Wii> PS3?

or about as ridiculous

PS3>Wii U>360?

That's not possible, is it?

 

[Art Teitlebaum]

Not PS3, but I still don't believe that's true, lol.

Ha! This came unexpected.

 

[vinnygambini]

Needs clarification. There are two possibilities of Wii U>Wii>PS3 which would be bizarre, or PS3>Wii U>360 which is all sorts of crazy as well.

That's what I was thinking too but still both are crazy hahahah

Needs further clarification most definetely

 

[Jamix012]

Christ if Wii>PS3? What scary times.

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

wii u > 360 would be way too crazy

 

[Plinko]

We need some Tearaway numbers please

I'll take a wild guess and say "not good."

Looking forward to seeing what comes of that latest creamsugar drop. Could be the most excitement we've had in an NPD thread in months.

 

[Bunta]

awwwwww yeah.

 

[Otakumegane]

Yeah that 3DS drop is not looking good. It seems the usual "Nintendo fans/Pokemon crowd" have already bought the console, and the rest of the casuals just do not care.

Really really interested on how Nintendo is going to introduce their next handheld.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

video games

they had a good run

 

[noobasuar]

That's not possible, is it?

Maybe Just Dance moved a decent amount of Wii's? Is that possible?

 

[shinra-bansho]

That's not possible, is it?

It's not probable, imo. The Wii sold ~80K in November. It's probably in the realm of like 25K or something, pure guess.

PS3 would have to be crazy low.

But really both possibilities are crazy.

 

[Rhaknar]

Release the xbone here in Portugal MS, I'll buy one

 

[creamsugar]

TRDE: total < 85k

 

[goomba]

Looks like it will take a bit longer for ps4 and xbo to overtake wii u than most thought

 

[Butts-a-plenty]

Christ if Wii>PS3? What scary times.

publishers were talking about a quicker than expected collapse.

 

[Chobel]

Christ if Wii>PS3? What scary times.

He said it's not PS3...

My bad I thought you said Wii U

 

[crazyprac]

another one of those nights with 2-4 hours of sleep... sigh I shouldn't have ever found out about this site!

 

[Taurus]

Christ if Wii>PS3? What scary times.

Gen 7 dropping like a... what's heavier than a rock?

How does this compare to earlier console transitions? I recall PS2 kept selling really well long after gen 7 consoles launched.

 

[Graphics Horse]

wii u > 360 would be way too crazy

It would explain sony's ps3+ps4>all claim. If PS3 was lowest, it would be mathematically difficult.

 

[graywolf323]

And they couldn't keep up their unprecedented levels of supply... why, exactly? They obviously managed to outsupply Wii's launch supply at launch, why can't they do it post-launch?

I'm not convinced you understand how supply at launch works, they had MONTHS to make the consoles they had through Christmas

 

[outunderthestars]

Did we ever get Wii U numbers?

 

[KingSnake]

TRDE: total < 85k

That's not good. Not enough thirst.

 

[cebri.one]

HL3 iOS/Android exclusive

 

[Jamix012]

He said it's not PS3...

He said PS3 wasn't the one directly behind the Wii U. That either implies that PS3 was 1st or 4th behind Wii. (All in terms of Last Gen+Wii U)

 

[theprodigy]

TRDE: total < 85k

huh
so total sales were somewhere under 140k then (probably MUCH lower)

 

[Road]

Recalling:

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-...-microsoft-xbox-one-in-january-sony-says.html

Combined sales for the PS4 and its predecessor, the PlayStation 3, surpassed all other platforms in January, Sony said. ​

PS4 + PS3 > everyone else combined ?

Can't be.

Maybe it's true.


Or maybe it's a trap from NPD.

 

[Logash]

As someone who just watched the Wire, this scene is so amazing in the show. Like top 5 scene ever. Such an amazing reaction. Everyone watch the Wire!

Can't remember, is this the scene where he finds out

Spoiler

they shot a cop by mistake

?

 

[noobasuar]

TRDE: total < 85k

good. They deserve to have sold less but I'll take it.

 

[bigmf]

That's not possible, is it?

No because in the o.p. we have ps3+ps4 exceeded every other console combined.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

TRDE: total < 85k

That's really low.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

RIP in peace video games. 1947-2014

 

[RamzaIsCool]

TRDE: total < 85k

Here we go.

PS4: ~56k
XBO: ~29k

 

[ascii42]

TRDE: total < 85k

That was around 2:1 in PS4's favor from what we've heard.

So probably something like:
Xbox One version <28k
PS4 < 57k

 

[johnny956]

Maybe not the best source, but... looks like 29?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii_launch

Looking at worldwide numbers Sony is even trending above the wii currently and that's not including japan yet.

 

[LegendofLex]

I'm not convinced you understand how supply at launch works, they had MONTHS to make the consoles they had through Christmas

So has every console company releasing new hardware for the holidays ever. All of whom incidentally had just as much time to manufacture their January shipments.

I know, I read your comment wrong. I edited my comment, sorry
