Yeah nobody went out to buy a new 3DS with the new 3DS coming out in a month. Must have really cratered.

Ah thanks, I should have realised.
Oh, you.
Never have I seen one sentence so easily weed out 100s of people who don't know what they're talking about in sales threads.
I'm almost positive it's Dying Light, not hardware. PS4 was ~56% of sales, total sales was less than 500k.
I meant horrible user reviews by Amazon's standards. 3 and 2 and 1/2 stars, respectively, is quite bad.

Be interesting to see if we know what the numbers for PS4/X1 were.
What was the US gap after december.
350k?

When did Sony announce 18m sold WW (was that Nov)? Today's PR states 18.5m sold WW. Seems like demand for PS4 tailing off?
I know this a NPD thread, but Sony mentioned WW in their statement.

500-600k dont remember well.

But, where are you getting this from man?
The only X1 game I think will be terrible is Fable Legends and I'll admit a lot of that is result of my dissapointment with the general direction of that franchise since the 2nd and 3rd one.
I think QB is going to be a high 80 Meta game, it's going to be great. I'll be buying Forza 6, which will no doubt also be a mid 80s-low 90s meta. Halo 5 will be a solid game (even if I personally don't like the direction the MP is going), TR is also going to be a solid, mid 80s meta title and you can bet I'm looking forward to a Gears Collection.
It seems to me that you're seeing what you want to see here.
But, they did end up keeping the $350 price tag. My point was, that sales would collapse and so MS would end up keeping the price lower price tag. They did just that. Perhaps I worded it poorly, but I don't believe I was wrong. I do agree with you, that it didn't "collapse" so in that sense I was indeed wrong (at least I don't think it did?)

They announced that 18.5 million PS4's were sold as of January 4, 2015. They are just reusing old PR.

The #1 spot couldn't have gone to a fresher, more exciting game. Congrats Techland!
Also congrats to Sony for being back where you're supposed to be.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
But which one the 12% or 8% is the Wii U since 3DS seems to have collapsed.
that was up till jan 5th or something like that. todays pr is just parroting the same numbers since they haven't gotten any new number to put up.

Spencer better have something big at E3. It's only been a year and it feels like Xbone games are drying up.
Was a repeat of PR from Jan 5th I believe.
I'm guessing PR didn't have any updated WW sales figures.
Come on man, I don't go around just making stuff up about people. I get upset when people do that to me, there was a specific post from a previous thread where you predicted none of the X1 games were going to be anything special and not even come close to be in running for any GOTY awards.

If I remember correctly the 18m announcement was shipped. This is sold 18.5.

What's the 1.64%? I assume 7.13 is Vita?

C means consoles, right? No handhelds? So I'm assuming this means 8% is 360, the one a bit behind is PS3, and the 1% or whatever is Wii.
I calculate roughly 193k for PS4 and 153k for X1 based on these assumptions
As another post said Titanfall received a Abnormal amount of hype and marketing. Hype I've never seen in many year of gaming for a new ip. QB won't come close to those levels imo. I'm done with this though it's just my opinion.

not for long.
just a general question for these NPDs: does the hardware numbers generally not get disclosed?
okay thanks

I thinkc
Red = PS4
Blue = XB1
Green = Wii U (Nice switch)
Purple = 360
Light Blue = PS3
Orange = Wii
Every console is below 200k?
It's just consoles, so 1.64% should be Wii. 7.13% is probably PS3.

Never I believe, it might get leaked or you can deduce it from PR.
not officially. leakers like aqua and cream give hints for people to do the math.

Oh true handhelds are not included, forgot.

Downplay? Is that we call it now when you don't blindly take PR statements and put it in perspective?
Well they lost by 60k though :/
I..kind of think the 1.64% is most likely Vita unless Wii is also being tracked in these numbers. Edit: Oh it might only be consoles.

Someone suggested PSTV, I don't think 3DS and Vita are in here since this is "consoles"

DL is fresh and exciting? it has been done to death before.

Did we play the same game or did you not play it?
I havent been this into an open world game since skyrim.
You're the one who brought it up trying to call her/him out on it. If it was so obvious why do you have a problem with it? Secondly yes they did revert back to the $350 price after they raised it and sales dropped significantly.

Based on what? The repeated price cut?
PS lineup over the next 2 months minimum (especially March) is pretty heavy. Would be shocked if they didn't win Feb and March.
