Another pie

This cant be November PS4XB1WIIU. We know what Wii U sold and if you overlay that with the others there's no way PS4XB1 sold that few.

 

[Rebel Leader]

Software numbers? What's going on here?!

Some are speculating that the black chart is black friday sales and white is the month

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

Screw all you Aholes that didn't buy Dragon Age!

i got it digitally

 

[vanx0]

Ok I'm confused... what's with the pie charts and zero numbers? Did WiiU sold that much and PS4 that few units?

 

[system11]

Hm, that's a shame. I really don't want to see MS in a strong position since it makes moneyhatting cheaper. So if the gap was large, odds are they will end up with December too after all. I wonder what this thread will look like tomorrow, it's late here.

 

[GravityInsanity]

Screw all you Aholes that didn't buy Dragon Age!

I bought it. I'm trying to win Cassandra heart

 

[IKizzLE]

New angles are 81, 130 and 149 degrees... don't actually know what they correspond to though.

Call of Duty: 1306k
Grand Theft Auto V: 1138k
Smash Brothers: 710k

If games....

 

[loaf of bread]

Here I have for you guys another chart

Blue is Wii U
Red is XB1
Orange is PS4
Green is noises

 

[Miles X]

Blue pie could either be

2014 LTD (PS4 slightly ahead but close to XB1)

360, Wii and PS3 (for the month)

 

[Odah]

Pie of confusion.

 

[Syphon Filter]

How do you know who to believe? I cant say one is more believable than the other.

 

[allan-bh]

Is this just for black Friday and the blue chart for the whole month?

NPD doesn't do that.

 

[kingocfs]

Another pie

 

[AstroNut325]

Too much teasing. I'll step out and hope more info is available later.

 

[PhatSaqs]

creampies right to GAFs face lol.

 

[Elitist1945]

Good job Microsoft.

But I hope the people going "Sony is doomed" "Microsoft reigns king" etc etc aren't serious. As an owner of both, do you really think one good month for Microsoft means the fall of PlayStation? Damn.

 

[Drencrom]

Because NPD is not public data.

Why not send a mass-PM? Email tag it in a post?

 

[LuuKyK]

are the pies LTD then NOV?

Could be too.

Anyway, MS won november by their means. That big price drop helped big time. If they hadn't won with such an aggressive approach I would be surprised.

 

[Noobcraft]

Is this just for black Friday and the blue chart for the whole month?

Wii U didn't do well enough for the whole month. It would represent a quarter of the console sales. It's likely the black one is the month, blue one could be Black Friday, or it could be last gen console sales.

 

[bishoptl]

So can I start banning cboat or what

 

[Deadly Joker]

Yup.

December will probably blow that lead down to 100k-200k.

Sony absolutey HAS to drop the price. If not, Microsoft will take the US easily.

 

[ultratruman]

If black chart is black Friday, and all reports point to PS4 winning that day, could the large chunk be PS4?

The blue and white chart is for all November, where Xbone won overall?

Looking back, Creamsugar always posts LTD figures. I think first graph is LTD, we all just quickly assumed it was Nov totals because we're desperate for it.

 

[PhoenixDawn]

I feel like white is LTD for PS4/XB1/WiiU? I don't think it could be black friday/monthly because Wii U has way too big of a share for that.

 

[JNA]

Ok come on now. Cream, Aquamarine, just give SOME hints on the numbers PLZ. These pie charts don't tell me anything.

 

[maabus1999]

Bish PM incoming.

I guess you don't know who cosmic is.

 

[Anion]

Here I have for you guys another chart

Blue is Wii U
Red is XB1
Orange is PS4
Green is noises

Lolol

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Why do we continue to listen to cboat?

 

[vinnygambini]

Might be digital console sales....

Could be.

 

[EmmaWatsonButt]

Another pie

We need some help, Aqua

 

[Trey]

I think we need to update the title to [Up3: charts].

 

[Amir0x]

no no, i appreciate that. i am just explaining my thinking when i posted it. basically, the xb1 had a historic month. no console has had a second november of over a million. not the ps2 or not the wii. even doing 800k is a rather large amount.

despite my predictions, if the gap was going to be that big, i was really thinking about 1000k and 700k for the xb1 and ps4 at the biggest. even then it would have been historically good for both platforms (but indicating softer demand than usual for a market leader ps4). instead, the ps4 performed more closely to market leaders of the past and the xb1 blew way past that.

This changes things considerably at least as far as US is concerned. If we see the XBO level out at a much better month-to-month average due to Microsoft deciding to stay at this price range, the competition for US territory just got interesting.

To put it in perspective, PS4 is now, what, 800k lead in US now? That's a big fall.

If we give Microsoft another 300k victory for December (considering downfall trajectory after initial price cut surge), they'll be slicing through the number quick.

They'll never achieve worldwide victory, but this makes US competitive again. And they pretty much require this territory and UK to be viable. I love this shit, it's so much more exciting from a sales perspective to analyze these events

 

[Guevara]

Here I have for you guys another chart

Blue is Wii U
Red is XB1
Orange is PS4
Green is noises

Noises up for the month, nice. That's good for the industry.

 

[XxRampage07xX]

Welp. I'm spinning so hard right now :O

 

[Trevelyon]

How do we know the first pie was even referring to the three consoles? There are a lot of knee-jerk reactions in here.

My God! Give me that last little twist. It was all last-gen numbers.

 

[pager99]

Another pie

Cboat redeemed?

 

[Arion]

I get it. These are all delicious crow pies.

 

[Larogue]

WHAT IS GOING ON. Who's getting banned anyway?!

But yeah, the interpretation of:

Black--> Black Friday
White-->Rest of November

Does kinda make sense.

No Wii U sales numbers wouldn't make sense.

Its probably 360/PS3/Wii for November or LTD for XB1/PS4/WiiU

 

[SargerusBR]

lol creamsugar is fucking with us

 

[Donthizz#]

Black Friday sales?

Another pie

November sales?

 

[Mr.Marston]

So can I start banning cboat or what

😮

 

[Angelus Errare]

White chart = Black Friday.
Black chart = month.

Quote me on it!

 

[Madness]

I love cboat, but in this case he is not correct.

And yet the damage is done. Comes in in first page, Posts something pulled out of his ass and now everyone one twitter is saying MS only sold 7k more when it's just not true. It's crazy how quickly misinformation spreads.

 

[orochi91]

So can I start banning cboat or what

Hold off until we can figure out the white chart lol

 

[Uno Venova]

oh my god just say what the charts are

 

[Minions]

So can I start banning cboat or what

Bish still waiting for a strait answer lol. This thread is too much.

 

[Curufinwe]

MS Sold 1.2 million fucking consoles in the US alone? Is that not the best month for a console...ever? Regardless looks like they sold a bunch and stomped PS4. Congrats. Well deserved with the deals.

The Wii had much bigger months.

 

[Muppet of a Man]

Another pie

Worldwide Console Sales for November?

I'm assuming the equal sized portions are PS4 and X1 at ~1.2 Million units each.

 

[KillerMan91]

That smallest partion is too big for WiiU for that pie being sales of current gen consoles.

 

[Naughty_Doge]

The ups, the downs, the crazy coincidences

 

[Verendus]

The payoff will be as good as a M Night movie.

Do you mean The Sixth Sense or all his other movies?
