And LOL, 3DS keeps getting adjusted up despite shipments disagreeing. Will make VGC look bad when Nintendo releases the next set of numbers.
I'm expecting Vgc to show about as much if not more sold than Wii U shipped in Octwhen Nintendo releases numbers.

Looking at the chart, PS4 has been adjusted up again for TF week, its now at 8k more than XB1. Also, VGC has finally matched the 7m announcement for April 5th. Still almost 300k under tracked though.

Nah, I think the peeps in China and India will love it and cause it to smash all previous records!

I think PS4 will be 700k ish (150k anyway, +350k NA +200k Europe+ROW), with 4m software and total about 8-10m software

Guys i think its a bit of a stretch to call ioi Xbox bias..to the point where he will purposefully skew the numbers. It just doesn't benefit his site at all. And personally, I think ioi's site means more to him than some stupid console allegiance. To be honest i dont even think ioi plays games anymore lol.

With regards to the adjustments...im with ioi on this one. It really doesn't make sense for him to adjust the numbers if he doesn't know where to put them. As of right now, the main regions are within range of the other official trackers (NPD, GFK )...so logically he can only inflate the "other" regions.

I really dont think it does Vgc any good to simply adjust because a company announces it. I remember back when MS made some announcements with regards to 360 numbers...which completely contradicted what the official trackers were saying, vgc did not adjust. This went on to the point where MS claimed a vicotory but Vgc actually had PS3 as the victor for the year.

I really dont think the gross mistracking is done purposefully, its probably caused by incorrect trend forecasting and an inaccurate or outdated sales formula. This has been happening for as long as that site has been in existence.



Thing is, he pretty much said that the PS4 isn't a good console and that the Xbox One is the most innovative of the 3.  The other problem is that he has the XBox One way over tracked and has the PS4 way under tracked.  Yet he manages to get the Wii U right.

Sorry, have to say this and don't want to make a thread about it. Why are nintendo fans circle jerking each other in seece thread? Are they really that silly to not realize 50k is higher than 20k?
We actually have a thread for stuff like that
