XBOX ASTERISK is the new meme, holy shit that's awesome. We sold the most (between Xbox 360 and Xbox One, that is!)

 

[legend166]

Now every manufacturer has used the 'Family' method of PR spin!

 

[GobFather]

It's hidden in there. 2.29x faster than the 360 which sold 1.96M units in its first three months. Subtract the 1.82 Xbones sold through in Nov-Dec and you get ~140K.

OH wow, that's is one twisted PR! So much positive spin. but I guess that's how PR works...

 

[vpance]

Xbox* = Xbox Family

rofl

 

[enanogrande]

Xbox Ffamily in the body, but title says "Xbox One leads software sales".


That seems like a mistake, no?

PS4 double Xbox One sales according to Keighley

 

[Chobel]

It's 2.27 million games... no?

 

[iMax]

PS4 sold "nearly 2x" more than Xbox One

edit: beat about a billion times

Interesting, so 280-300k ish?

Wait...no way. It can't be that low.

 

[Kazuma Kiryu]

Oh man, this thread is gonna be great.

 

[Tamanon]

geoffkeighley: per @LuckyLongworth: PS4 was #1 in sales for next gen consoles in January, nearly doubling the nearest next gen competitor.

That's pretty big, especially since PS4 is still pretty supply constrained.

 

[N.Domixis]

~145 for Xbox One.

Not Wii U colapse, but not good sales.

yes!!!! PS4 ONE! Now I await the major spin.

Oh right. Awuful number anyway.

 

[Wickerbasket]

I read half way through Aquamarine's post and thought to myself 'very witty' then scrolled past it.

Totally didn't see that being a real MS release.

 

[IAmRandom31]

Edit : Server failure caused the late response lol

I did not expect 2x Sales here in the US. That is staggering to me. Maining the PS4 is somewhere in the 400K range and X1 is only in the 200K range? Man ....

With the 2x sales advantage in the US and the near 5-6:1 advantage in the EU and the 1,000,000:1 advantage in Japan lol. This could become a very ugly generation for MS pretty quickly.

If the Titanfall release does not give a MASSIVE bump in sales for March / April ... could be interesting.

 

[enanogrande]

2X???? Holy fucking christ

 

[shinra-bansho]

Yeah, no. That's a collapse.

Even the PS3 managed 244K in its first January.

Fake edit: So PS4 around 290K. While still being somewhat supply constrained? The thirst is real.

 

[Texhex]

 

[legend166]

So PS4 sold just under 290k?

 

[vpance]

geoffkeighley: per @LuckyLongworth: PS4 was #1 in sales for next gen consoles in January, nearly doubling the nearest next gen competitor.

Holy shit at double.

 

[gtj1092]

Wow 150K is bad. What percentage drop from December to Janurary is that compared to Wii U's drop from December to Janurary last year?

PS4 double Xbox One sales according to Keighley

Impressive. So sub 300K for PS4 then?

Wait could the 3ds have outsold the XB1?

 

[Danny 117]

Uh oh...

EDIT: Beaten like Xbox One

 

[cilonen]

*Across Xbox One and Xbox 360

Xbone numbers must be bad.

 

[VanWinkle]

PS4 doubled XB1 sales in January?! WHAT?! I never even saw the thing on shelves EVER! XB1 is ALWAYS on shelves. I mean, I guess that could mean that PS4 just keeps selling out whenever it goes on, but I literally NEVER see it on shelves.

 

[chubigans]

Well I think this will be quite the NPD thread.

 

[Pooya]

the difference must be significant enough for them not releasing numbers for the first time and writing up that 'we need good news' pr piece. lol

edit: here we go then lol

 

[cebri.one]

2:1 in the US???? MS is fucked.

 

[GhaleonEB]

Is this satire?

edit: nm, it's real. I couldn't tell, honestly!

I couldn't tell either. I honestly thought it was fanfic until halfway through!

Comparatively, Xbox One consoles have sold at a rate of 2.29 times faster than Xbox 360 in the U.S. in the same timeframe for the first three months on the market.

We should be able to tell how the Xbox One did from these figures.

PS4 at nearly 2x XBox One....wow. That answers the question we've been wondering since launch.

 

[Ishan]

doubling ... hmm does not sound good for one. all the lawaway and walmart deals make a lot more sense now.

 

[ironcreed]

geoffkeighley: per @LuckyLongworth: PS4 was #1 in sales for next gen consoles in January, nearly doubling the nearest next gen competitor.

Holyyyyy shiiiiet

Xbox* - 360 x ~2 = PS4!

 

[Yaoibot]

~145 for Xbox One.

Not Wii U colapse, but not good sales.

Holy shit. For real? What was the PS4 at?

Edit: Double!!!? The thirst is real. Titanfall is just going to put a bandaid on the decapitation.

 

[lightning2k3]

geoffkeighley: per @LuckyLongworth: PS4 was #1 in sales for next gen consoles in January, nearly doubling the nearest next gen competitor.

Wow. Price cut incoming for xbox one? They can't lose the US that badly. They won't stand a chance globally.

 

[Zornack]

50% the GPU, 50% the sales.

 

[Road]

I have the same -- 145k. Unless NPD has retroactively adjusted the sales, that should be it.

And ~290k for the PS4.

XBO is bad and PS4 is mediocre (but there's still the stock situation).

 

[EL CUCO]

Xbox One NPD is under embargo

 

[illmatic22]

America has fallen, Microsoft has lost its strongholds. Except new zealand

 

[Magicpaint]

Wow, X1 collapse....

 

[shinra-bansho]

Wow, my predictions are gonna be off by like 100K now at least, thanks Xbone.

I think the 3DS may have outsold it too. It's plausible the 360 is quite close.

 

[Uno Venova]

Ample supply and still a collapse in sales, shit.

 

[RamzaIsCool]

Who says XBO is the PS4s nearest compititor? There is something called the 3DS.

 

[dolemite]

PS4 > XBox* then? Wow.

 

[BlackBuzzard]

lol honestly

And this is ridiculous



Hours of fun lol



Wow sub 150K is pretty bad, no?

Lol i had 175K in my predictions and i thought i was low balling.
