If only we knew with a 100% certainty.

We do. Click the 2nd chart, its LTD.

 

[Hockeymac18]

This.

Don't understand why people are saying PS4 is doomed, just look at their WW sales (I own both consoles btw)

Same reason the XB1 wasn't doomed when the PS4 outsold it. Both consoles have an awesome future ahead of them. And PS4 is likely to continue doing very well worldwide, regardless of what XB1 does in relation to in the US going forward. Neither console are going anywhere anytime soon.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

so many damn pies I can't think straight anymore

help us aqua use your controversial formulas

 

[badb0y]

Hahahahahaha

Glorious! PS4 got rekt.

 

[watership]

THIS IS LTD

You are a genius. Now it makes sense.

 

[bananafactory]

Blue chart being monthly sales is super bad for XB1 & PS4 sales based off the known Wii U numbers. Black chart is better for both (and with what we know, it's more likely)

Yeah we just heard that the blue chart is LTD.

 

[Yoda]

Guys, the black chart is not Black Friday. The angles match the information we know!

We only know Wii U, we extrapolate the "parts" to the others based off rank + Wii U #s. But we don't know if the chart is the entire month... unless cream would like to give another hint?

 

[m@cross]

So that's a good way to get at the numbers.



Nov 2013 = 909,132 + ~1.14 mil* + 220,00 = 2.269 mil.

A 3% increase would mean the Nov 2014 total is 2.337 mil

Nov 2014:
XOne: 1.2 mil
WiiU: 242k
PS4: roughly 895,000

Thank you for saving me the time.

This looks about what I expected it to be.

 

[Officerrob]

Black= November
Blue/White=LTD

 

[Miles X]

THIS IS LTD

Quoted because people won't read.

 

[Infinite Xero]

Another pie

Click the image it says LTD. The gap between PS4 and XB1? If so then Sony is losing their lead next month.

 

[GravityInsanity]

 

[Anion]

Gap is pie

 

[mightynine]

Blue is LTD, according to the hint.

Best NPD thread I can remember since 06. All those plot twists are gold.
I'm laughing my ass off in the middle of the night and my colleagues at work look at me like they're coming to take me away, haha...

LTD?

[CharmingCharlie]

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

After the utter shite Bioware pulled with Dragon Age 2 and Mass Effect 3 their rep is down the shitter. They could produce a game that god himself proclaims to be the best thing he has played in the 15 billion years that the Universe has existed and it still won't sell with the rep Bioware has now.

I loved Dragon Age, hated Dragon Age 2 it killed my love for the franchise just like Mass Effect 3 killed my love for that franchise. Plus the existence of Origin on the PC made it a very easy decision to not buy Dragon Age 3.

 

[travisbickle]

Xbox 1 confirmed 1,2 mill + this confirms black chart is november total?

Yeah, if the WiiU number is correct, you also have 1.2 mill for XB1 on the black chart, but could be coincidence, who knows?

 

[Chezzymann]

So since the blue chart is LTD that probably means the black one is for November. CBOAT :'(

 

[sense]

why hasn't MS made a bigger deal with this win?

 

[And_Gignac]

Hint for the 2nd pie: click it.

ACU bundle is slightly lower than PS4 total.

lol wii u

bye cboat

So it's not just my beer? This is really fun?

 

[Odah]

can someone explain me what LTD means?

 

[RibMan]

i just find it odd that IF ms won by 400k then wouldn't they be shouting from the roof?

Now that's the same question I have.

 

[Lexxism]

LOLOLOOLOL

LTD GUYS

You were right. It's LTD

 

[SwiftDeath]

Damn this thread got crazy. Cboat what were you doing?

 

[PhoenixDawn]

Holy fuck, XB1 could/will pass PS4 in December then? That's remarkable considering how far behind they were going into the holidays.

 

[Ty4on]

Vita
Vita TV
Wonderswan Color.

Don't be silly, this is it! We've finally gotten Ouya sales!

Seriously though, could someone please calculate that blue one with WiiU/360/PS3 or will it take me less time to install GIMP?
Edit: Wait, LTD? Interesting, but why?

 

[Stone Ocean]

THIS IS LTD

Well, that was one crazy ride

[cantona222]

The industry we love is still competitive and healthy. Congrats everyone.

 

[RoKKeR]

So white pie is LTD, Black must be November then.

Wild how close the two have gotten in NA.

 

[Wyndstryker]

why hasn't MS made a bigger deal with this win?

Too busy drunk in celebration?

 

[FATALITY]

Cboat hates Xbox confirmed

If he is right, i think he saved a lot people in this thread

 

[shinra-bansho]

Based on this
PS4 + One + Wii U in 2013 - 2,267,000
PS4 + One + Wii U in 2014 (+3%) - 2,335,010

Given the other numbers, what's left is 893,010 for PS4.

Assumes no rounding for the 1.2M figure, which is likely false assumption.
245, 840 and 1240 fit fine with a 3% Y/Y increase, give or take a few K.

 

[Amir0x]

This is some WWE SHIT.

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON???

It's LTD.

It means XBO is coming up on PS4's lead in the US quick. They will pass PS4 in December NPD month I think. Although I thought the impression was the gap to date between PS4 and XBO in US was a million or so? I have to check my notepad somewhere for that, I wrote it down before I know it lol

Of course worldwide there's no chance, but at least XBO will be very very close if not win in the US if they maintain trajectory at this price. Microsoft has to keep the price.

 

[Steverulez]

can someone explain me what LTD means?

Life to date.

So, total US sales of PS4/XB1/WiiU

 

[Rebel Leader]

I can't click on the 2nd pie, on kindle

 

[AstroNut325]

why hasn't MS made a bigger deal with this win?

This. If they're leading by almost a half million I would think they would have proudly boasted that.

 

[NateDrake]

can someone explain me what LTD means?

life to date.

 

[Gaspard]

So if this is the month, and the black one is black friday, we are back on cboat being right again?

But if it's proportional, both systems didn't even sell twice what Wii U did.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

There's no chance in hell they're raising the price again.

 

[DenogginizerOS]

Black pie = Black Friday?
White pie = November?

 

[bananafactory]

Holy fuck, XB1 could/will pass PS4 in December then? That's remarkable considering how far behind they were going into the holidays.

Do we know how far they were behind?

 

[Officerrob]

Cboat was only off by +290k...

 

[IKizzLE]

Market Share:
Ps4: 41%
Xbox One: 36%
Wii U: 23%

 

[Deadly Joker]

Don't. After all these months, it was easy to fall into the thinking that maybe nothing could move the XBO but mountains.

In my view, that's exactly what MS did with the deals it was offering - move mountains. They DEFINITELY offset the cost of price margin decrease with these numbers.

Now to me they have no choice, they have to stay at $349.99 imo.

What do you think Sony should do?
