I have calculated Dark Souls II launch sales, this will be useful next week.

(Actual tracked sales)

‘FIFA 14’ (28,088 / -14%) makes it 4 straight weeks in 2014 at No1 and 9 in total since launch.
In yet another quiet week for new releases the Top 3 are unchanged with ‘Call of Duty: Ghosts’ (18,872 / -2%)

Code:

[Week 07, 2014] CALL OF DUTY: GHOSTS (ACTIVISION BLIZZARD) - 23,479 (+23%)

'The Lego Movie Videogame’ kicks ‘FIFA 14’ (-3%) off the top of the All Formats Chart to become the 6th different Lego game to reach No1, the last one being ‘Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes’ back in W29 2012.

Launched to coincide with the release of the film, Warner’s title sells 15,000 more units this week than the price-promoted ‘Call of Duty: Ghosts’ (+23%), which just holds on to No2 ahead of newcomer ‘Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XXIII’ at No3.

Code:
[Week 07, 2014] THE LEGO MOVIE VIDEOGAME (WARNER BROS. INTERACTIVE) - 38,479

So, assuming PS4 has managed to maintain its 1.5 ratio, that would be 1.8 : 1.2 mil respectively.

If not, then probably around 1.7:1.3
PDF says that the install base is 3.3m, so the ratio has shrunk.

We haven't gotten a 2 million announcement for the PS4 yet, so I'd say it's 1.8 : 1.5 as of January 24th.

360 + PS3 @ 14.4m through 2013, forecast to be @ 15.2m through 2014.
XB1 + PS4 @ 0.9m through 2013, forecast to be @ 2.6m through 2014.

08kX19E.jpg


Three weeks past 2014;

360 + PS3 have completely died only adding 100k (could be closer to 200k with rounding) in a year, missing forecasts by 700k.

XB1 + PS4 sold 2.4m in a year, beating forecasts by 700k. The generational change has been far quicker than forecast, with the rapid collapse in last gen being matched by a faster than expected uptake of current gen.

It doesn't look like either 360 or PS3 will ever hit 9m or 6m respectively.

lttp but this is in XB1's 2nd strongest country. Counting the differential in the rest of EU and Japan, I'm guessing the ratio could be 85 maybe even nearing the 90%.

[NIKO Partners] Free report: Regulation of China’s Video Game Industry

http://nikopartners.com/free-report-regulation-of-chinas-video-game-industry/

Very interesting tidbit from the report

This report is over a year old.

Just it was behind a paywall before. But the 1.2m+ was known.

I think on average it's around ~2m per year at the moment with peak almost reaching 3m and lowest being 1.2m.

Of course this number includes all consoles from all manufacturers sold in China. (Yes, local manufacturers as well)/

MCV published software rankings taking into account digital sales in addition to UKIE/GFK, using "third-party" information.

 
Keep in mind with RE:REV 2 it was released much earlier via episodic digitally. So the sales are going to be skewed towards it's digital release moreso than normal.
 
Pretty great for HLM2. Not bad for Ori. Nice to see ZAT doing well too.

Would be nice if we started to get charts that take digital sales into account too.

If the UK charts included digital sales data, last week an entirely new IP would have been No.1 - the Paradox-published Cities: Skylines. The game sold 60,000 copies over 10 days in the UK alone.

Elsewhere, indie sequel Hotline Miami 2 would have been at No. 4.

One other new IP would have cracked the Top 10 on digital sales alone: Ori and the Blind Forest on Steam and Xbox One.

Second-week digital sales of Sniper Elite spin-off Zombie Army Trilogy – UK studio Rebellion’s first self-published game on console – actually push the title up the chart when download numbers are paired with boxed figures. Minecraft gets a similar lift.

So...by taking Bruno MB's post and adding the new infos...

PDF says that the install base is 3.3m, so the ratio has shrunk.

We haven't gotten a 2 million announcement for the PS4 yet, so I'd say it's 1.8 : 1.5 as of January 24th.

Wait, how?

We haven't gotten a 1.5 mil. announcement for Xbone yet. So, how your conclusion is that gap has shrunk?

So, maybe tommorow will be announcement that install base is now 3.8 mil. and ratio has shrunk. So, Xbone is selling, PS4 not.

Nice one MCV. This chart actually got me to check out the Cities: Skylines trailer on Steam. Hopefully more publishers will realise that including digital sales in the charts is good publicity for their titles, and inversely those publishers not willing to share digital sales data could start to see a negative impact on marketing when the true position of their titles aren't represented in the charts.

It just means that PS4 hasn't been outselling XB1 by as much as before. So whilst PS4 outsold XB1 in November + December it was likely not by much (XB1 outsold PS4 in November). As holiday sales make up a large percentage of annual sales XB1 only had to sell close to PS4 for the ratio to come down.

Right, Famiclones and Mega Drive clones are still popular in China to this day. So those figures don't tell us much unless they explicitly exclude those.

Because Sony didn't yet annonced 2 mil. milestone ( and why should they ), Welfare's conclusion is sales gap has shrunked. Go figure! LOL.

We normally get milestone updates from MCV ("retail sources" :p), not the actual manufacturers. Still, I think the last time we had actual figures for both consoles through the same date was through 2013 (PS4: 530k, XB1: 364k) where the gap was 166k.

Holy shit, Type-0 sold more than Last-Gen Versions of Battlefield Hardline.

That's something isn't it ? I don't know if this means Type-0 did extremely well, or Hardline is selling jack shit on Last-Gen.

Do they need more evidences to stop making Last-Gen versions ? i don't know

Last gen made up only 9% of Battlefield sales in the UK. So yeah, cross-gen titles will likely end this year.

I expect with the release of bloodborne numbers we might get an announcement about 2m in UK..
may not be this week.. may be week after next.

2 million sold or shipped?

Both seem extremely unlikely just for the UK. I'd expect first week numbers to be around 75k to 90k. It'll take the top spot for sure, there's precious little else in competition and it'll likely stay in the top ten for at least three/four weeks.

In the UK on one format in the current climate? That would be very very hard.

Unless you mean overall, in which case maybe.

I think he means hardware, not Bloodborne. 2m worldwide for Bloodborne is wishful thinking let alone in the UK!

If the ratio some how stayed the same, PS4 would of been 2.2m and Xbox One at 1.1m. That's impossible :)

Who gives out 1.5m announcements?

I was talking about the sales ratio gap, which before hand was 1.5:1.

Actually It would be 1.98m for PS4, 1.32m for XB1. The ratio is 1.5:1 not 2:1

However I doubt the it's 1.5:1, because we still didn't get 2 million announcement for PS4.
