A PlayStation®4 já vendeu mais de 100 mil unidades em Portugal desde o seu lançamento no final de novembro de 2013, continuando a demonstrar o crescimento mais rápido e forte em toda a história das consolas PlayStation®.

They give no time point though so I assume it happened recently

Ohhhhh they announced some bank deal to help to people buy PS4 in Portugual... you can split the PS4 cost in 20x months.... yeap just pay €20 per month.

It is a pretty good deal for countries where the gamers don't have the full money (€400) per month to buy the console... here in Brazil we do the same with Credit Cards paying the console in 10x or 12x without any tax.

PS4 overtracked in uk by around 100k. XB1 undertracked by around 100k.

From my biased maths Xbox One is close to reach or just reached 1.5m in UK.

The GAP is about 500k... increased about ~150k in the last six months.

Well PS4 is 2m now and about 3 months ago they were 3.3m combined (http://www.gamedigitalplc.com/~/media/Files/G/Game-Corp/documents/results-reports-presentations/2015/half-year-results-presentation-2014-15.PDF scroll down and you see 3.3m as of Jan 24th). I'd guess PS4 has sold about 200k in that time, so say PS4 was at 1.8m, XB1 would have been 1.5m then. So I'd guess XB1 is at about 1.6m now, maybe slightly more

KOMBAT KING
05/May/2015
Another quiet week means the Top 3 are again unchanged with 'Mortal Kombat X' (-32%) taking its 3rd consecutive No1 crown.

It needs one more week at the top to match the 4 week record set by Battlefield Hardline so far in 2015. Despite the lack of new releases the bank holiday weekend sees sales climb 6% across entertainment software. 'Grand Theft Auto V' (+11%) remains at No2 and sees a slight boost in sales while 'Battlefield Hardline' (+0%) is static at No3. 'FIFA 15' (+16%) climbs a spot to No4 with retailer promotions on the Xbox 360 500GB FIFA hardware bundle driving the rise in sales. 'Minecraft: Playstation Edition' (-4%) is down to No5 but stays ahead of a resurgent 'Dying Light' (+79%) up two places to No6.
'Minecraft: Xbox Edition' (+7%) slides a place to No7 despite a slight increase in sales ahead of 'Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare' (+15%) at No8. 'Halo: The Master Chief Collection' (+33%) climbs five places to No9. 'WWE 2K15' (+5%) is a non-mover rounding off the top 10 for a second week.
