Orange looks like VitaTV.

That's what I'm thinking, we know that's 6k.

We also know WiiU (Green) is roughly 65k.

Someone do the math

 

[Xenus]

Red - PS4
Blue - XB1
Green - WiiU
Purple - X360
Blue - PS3
Orange - PSTV

??

If it's console only orange would be Wii wouldn't make sense to have the psTV but not the Vita or 3ds

 

[The Artisan]

Never I believe, it might get leaked or you can deduce it from PR.

the hardware numbers may get leaked?

what sort of PR puts you in a position where you can deduce numbers?

not officially. leakers like aqua and cream give hints for people to do the math.

ok thanks

 

[N.Domixis]

not for long.

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

Huh? What month will they lose? They got Jan, Feb, March, April, May on lock.

 

[Neuromancer]

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

Oh really? What open world first person free running games have you been playing lately?Because I'd love to play another one.

Tell us your thoughts since you've put so many hours in the game...

Well PSTV is technically a "console" that hooks up to your TV.

It's not a handheld.

so if we assume wiiu is green then ps4 sold 196k
if wiiu is purple then ps4 sold 316k? seems like a lot for jan

 

[allan-bh]

So, people that are saying that PS4 sold "well" was not exactly right.

 

[pager99]

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.

sony will win feb/march no problem its just by how much and how much traction order and bloodborne get

my prediction

[3DS] 80k
[PS4] 190k
[WIU] 45k
[XB1] 170k

 

[Dragonborn]

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.

Correct. But not being up for GOTY doens't mean they're bad. In that thread, I'm pretty sure I specified why I thought what I thought about certain titles (including looking at previous titles in the series, they way they were coming along, etc). That's the thing about making prediction months out, I could very well (and likely) end up being wrong. There's plenty of Ps4 titles that I feel have no shot at getting that high a praise (really, the only ones that come to mind are UC4 and Persona 5).

The next TR could absolutely blow us all away, QB could be a revolutionary title, Halo 5 could be a masterpiece that undoes all the damage 343 has done. You get what I mean? When I say that I think a game won't be a system seller, or that it won't be GOTY, it doesn't mean I don't like it. Heck, SO last year didn't sell great, didn't receive any GOTYs, and it probably didn't move many systems yet I friggen loved the game so much that I bought the White bundle. I did the same for the Wii U with Wonderful 101 and Bayo 2, and one of the reasons I got a PS4 at launch was Second Son which also ended up getting little to no recognition GOTY wise.


Also, either the PSV did really, really well or the 3DS just had a horrible month... probably the latter.

 

[ascii42]

Like Nintendo's this month where it gives you a percentage increase over last year.

 

[A Human Becoming]

Orange looks like VitaTV.

If c is for consoles it's probably Wii.

c

My guess:

Red - PS4
Blue - XBone
Green - Wii U
Purple - 360
Light Blue - PS3
Orange - Wii

Green should have been 360, it's the Xbox brand color IMO

 

[Welfare]

Using 64k for Wii U:

PS4 = 193k
XB1 = 153k
Wii U = 64k
360 = 40k
PS3 = 35k
Wii = 8k

63k for Wii U:

PS4 = 190k
XB1 = 151k
Wii U = 63k
360 = 39k
PS3 = 35k
Wii = 8k

 

[theprodigy]

oh my goodness, people still haven't figured out the pie chart with 6 segments is for consoles

 

[The Artisan]

so if we assume wiiu is green then ps4 sold 196k
if wiiu is purple then ps4 sold 316k? seems like a lot for jan

Wii U is definitely green. what would green be if Wii U was purple?

 

[bananafactory]

so if we assume wiiu is green then ps4 sold 196k
if wiiu is purple then ps4 sold 316k? seems like a lot for jan

Yeah since we know X1 is > 140k then 196k for PS4 sounds right

 

[RespectThySole]

IIRC from some other threads, Witcher XB1 + PS4 = roughly the same as The Order, which has somewhere in the 200k-250k range for preorders.

Not bad at all since it doesn't release until May. I think it will do much more than Dragon Age at launch.
It will be interesting to see how much The Order opens with. It could possibly do 500k+. That would be remarkable considering all the negative press it recieved.

 

[JNA]

So PS4 #1 console for the month but XB1 for software?

 

[allan-bh]

Using 64k for Wii U:

PS4 = 193k
XB1 = 153k
Wii U = 64k
360 = 40k
PS3 = 35k
Wii = 8k

Same here.

Disappointing sales for next gen.

 

[FATALITY]

So PS4 #1 console for the month but XB1 for software?

nope
ps4 both

 

[vinnygambini]

oh my goodness, people still haven't figured out the pie chart with 6 segments is for consoles

Ouya is the 1% I think

 

[bananafactory]

So PS4 #1 console for the month but XB1 for software?

XB1 had highest attach rate (software units per system sold), not necessarily overall software.

It's misleading.

 

[MavFan619]

Tell us your thoughts since you've put so many hours in the game...

What's the avatar quote count now, Artisan?

Hey man I've played at least 10 games this year where I can vault over a zombie, land on another killing them and then baseball slide a group of zombies nearby. That market is oversaturted

 

[The Shogun]

Its best not to use that 200k pre orders for The Order number when trying to figure how titles are going to perform.

 

[N.Domixis]

So, people that are saying that PS4 sold "well" was not exactly right.

But than again, going from 140k to 150k is not that good when the console is so much cheaper.

 

[VinFTW]

In that thread, I'm pretty sure I specified why I thought what I thought about certain titles (including looking at previous titles in the series, they way they were coming along, etc).

Of course I get what you mean, that was my whole argument in that thread. I have a strong feeling Halo, RotTR and QB are going to blow people away.

Still, people want to argue track records and such. To me, CD reminds me a lot of ND during Uncharted 1. The leap to UC2 was incredible, and I totally want and expect to see that leap in quality.

Anyways, we're veering off topic, lets agree to disagree or to be neutral and move on.

 

[Killer]

Did we play the same game or did you not play it?

I havent been this into an open world game since skyrim.

Parkour is terrible in that game. Probably why i disliked it.

as for open world game, GTAV and DA:I says hi .

Oh really? What open world first person free running games have you been playing lately?Because I'd love to play another one.

GTAV

 

[Neuromancer]

Same here.

Disappointing sales for next gen.

Absolutely terrible especially after the holiday season.

 

[Chobel]

Man! That's big collapse for PS4 compared to last year.

 

[John Harker]

I think most of us paid close attention and surmised that Microsoft's statement means there was more PS4 software sold in the USA in January. And since this is Xbone's best market, it means it's getting absolutely slaughtered everywhere else. Which is probably more relevant information for publishers than attach rate.

Honestly I have trouble following what you've been trying to say

 

[Cornbread78]

Protractor approved

Lol. Awesome..

 

[Moneal]

So PS4 #1 console for the month but XB1 for software?

no ms pr said that they had highest software sales per console sold? aka higher attach rate. didn't say sold more software.

 

[HardRojo]

the hardware numbers may get leaked?

what sort of PR puts you in a position where you can deduce numbers?


ok thanks

Mentioning percentages and stuff like that I guess, I don't follow NPD threads too closely, I usually enter, read stuff to get an idea and that's it.

 

[Xplatformer]

Destiny keeps on keeping on. :O

Just give me the damn DLC already with story building cut scenes. PLEASE!!!

Good Job Sony-san.

 

[N.Domixis]

Man! That's big collapse for PS4 compared to last year.

Well it still the same price.

 

[FATALITY]

So, people that are saying that PS4 sold "well" was not exactly right.

thats pretty good
i saw numbers for wii ps3 and xbo360 were lower than that in 2008

edit: nvm i cant read

Wii        X360      PS3       PS2        NDS        PSP    
274,000    230,000   269,000   264,000    251,000    230,000

 

[vinnygambini]

I don't think the Order is going to do that well honestly.

It'll most likely fall off a cliff the month after.

lol i used 65k, no wonder i got 196 for ps4

Wii U is definitely green. what would green be if Wii U was purple?

i was thinking 3ds but then realised its consoles only

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Man! That's big collapse for PS4 compared to last year.

Did you really think it would do as well this year?

 

[Lynn616]

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.

Because he was not talking about a collapse from December because that would be stupid. The only thing he could be talking about is a collapse from last year.

 

[RespectThySole]

Consoles sales for PS4/XB1 are low. I thought the PS4 would be over 200k at least.

 

[FATALITY]

Did you really think it would do as well this year?

i think he did

 

[Neuromancer]

Parkour is terrible in that game. Probably why i disliked it.

Oh

OK

 

[Welfare]

>150k is record breaking.

 

[creamsugar]

OUYA < 200

 

[Chobel]

Ummm... No?

 

[bananafactory]

Yeah, I expect it'll be well over 200k for Feb/March with The Order and Bloodborne.

 

[CosmicQueso]

OUYA < 200

lol. Good one cream.
