Only PS4 at my Target.

How is NDC going to reach 4M? In December, there's high competition from SW bundle. In other regions, there are other main bundles such as Fifa, Mgs5, COD, taken king, etc..

It has over a month of usually huge software sales to sell 1.5m or so.
Even without the bundle it would still sell a decent amount but with it it should easily reach that.

dang, that bundle will ensure Battlefront will have huge sales

Using a 20% digital rate, SW BF November NPD sales were 2.52M (including bundles). With this bundle as the main PS4 seller in December, expect about 2M more in December. So >4.5M in the US in 2 months. WW figures at the end of the year will be...? I dunno, 8M? Retail+digital+bundles

I think EU sales will also get a major boost in Dec with the movie on the way and Christmas effect. So yeah, maybe around 9m all things included.

So XCX debuted at 7 in Germany.
Looking at it beating Need for Speed and using charts #s hypothetical software data then I predict 32k first week for xcx in Germany.
Reason being it's one position below Fallout 4 and that probably sold over 32k since it's the holidays. So yeah let's hope that it's in that range or even more than that!

If my statement bonds true then that would be an excellent debut for a "niche" jrpg or at least do better then Splatoon.

Now don't take this as law just is just my own personal hopes.

Probably what it's gonna be anyway

I'll still take it.

According to chertZ, PS4 alone is ahead of ps3+360 combined sales launches aligned. Question is, can it stay ahead? It would have to sell 170m+ eventually to do that, mind you

Better comparison using official data would be to compare sell in of PS4, which was at 29.3 million as of September 30th 2015 to sell in data of PS3 and 360 which when aligned total 30 million (16.60m + 13.40m).

The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 accounted for a total of 8.80m shipments in the next aligned quarter taking the total to 38.80m. The PS4 will probably be just under this number at the end of this quarter.

Yeah I think PS4 will stay just behind them and never quite manage to overtake, before falling behind quite rapidly. I'm guessing they'll have shipped about 37m, maybe slightly more after this quarter so quite a way off really.

PS4 is 299 Euro in most places in EU.
