No way man!


 Hey, it's been done before.  ish...  
Maybe the 55, was like 55.7 and the 60 is like 59, or something.  Or maybe he's just rounding to like every 5 million.  

Yeah I think it will have been over 55 before and under 60 now and they're rounding.

I call battleship on wii u shortages. The shipment won't be till March 5th? Yet, Wii U is in short supply? Even though when this has been claimed there have been 30k sales and more on shelves? So when Wii U had 30k+ on shelves and only sold 4k it was due to supply shortage?

A bit... the 30k are not in all stores... some have good amount and others nothing.
That means shortages for me.

It crossed 3m in January.

So when 5.5m was announced PS4 was very close to 3m, meaning xb1 was very close to 2.5m

I thought it was pretty close.

5.5m included two weeks of January.
PS4 crossed 3m in January but it is not know when.

Using the avg. sales of UK weeks we can say PS4 was a bit over or lower than 3m at the 5.5m announcement... 2.970k to 3.030k range for example.

Yeap same for Xbox One... +-30k near 2.5m.

But it never crossed 2m

No Man's Sky really bringing the heat on Amazon right now.

These are rounded numbers, so I wouldn't read into them too much.

The definitive statements are:
PlayStation 4 has sold more than 3 million units in the UK.
PlayStation 4 & Xbox One have sold more than 5.5 million units combined in the UK.

Talk about rounding on EA numbers

[Aura7541]

the question here is, is it gonna be a system seller?

Not unless Sony releases a No Man's Sky bundle. This gen, standalone software does not move hardware sales that much.

[Legend]

the question here is, is it gonna be a system seller?

Depends on reception. Really needs to nail the game elements to get mainstream love.

Talk about rounding on EA numbers

Well yeah, the EA numbers aren't exact either.
