I'll go with my prediction that Pachter totally forgot about the white PS4 bundle.

Yeah I really think that he called retail store managers and asked for PS4 numbers, so those managers literally just gave him the PS4 sales numbers for the console only sku.

Details from the Sony email:

Thanks to the support from fans and the overwhelming popularity of the limited-edition Destiny PS4 bundle, PlayStation 4 won the month of September, nearly tripling August sales.

PlayStation led the month for next generation software, including selling the most copies of Madden NFL 15, NHL 15, and FIFA 15, making PS4 the best place to play sports games.

In addition, this afternoon we announced that September 2014 marked the biggest month ever for PlayStation Store revenue in the Americas, led by the launch of Destiny from Activision and Bungie.

190k x 3 = 570k.

I didn't believe.

We need a better definition of "nearly", though. 530k? 540k? 550k? 560k?

I've seen very generous interpretations of nearly in the past, but certainly I'd guess somewhere in the range you've said. Got to be in the 500k range at least.

lol at the guys in that awful awful thread that suggested that Pachter had some secret sauce that he wasn't letting off.

The dude just had a really strange prediction this month. I can't believe that people would lack any sort of critical thinking and actually believe that Destiny and a new colour would do shit all for Sony. Especially after they said that the Destiny launch gave them the best weekly sales since December.
