http://www.boerse-online.de/nachric...genueber-der-Xbox-One-weiter-aus-1000412979/1

Germany:
- PS4 1.2M, Xbone 270K, 4.44444:1
- Publisher rankings in Germany: EA 20.5%, ActiBlizz 13.9%, Ubi 11.8
- Fifa sales in Germany between 1.6 and 2M, depending on sources


[Anecdotal and semi-confirmed by data from several countries] - Rest of Europe has same or worse sales ratios for Xbone, except UK

edit - unreliable WW numbers removed, Europe ratio clarified

 

[darkwing]

but NPD

 

[Xando]

WW are chartz numbers, German data is supposed to be from Nov. Gfk report.

 

[Loris146]

WW numbers are fake anyway.

 

[The Llama]

So a 16:9 ratio?

Needs to be 2.35:1 for maximum cinematic impact.

 

[jbug617]

The WW numbers are VG Chartz

 

[bananafactory]

Dat cinematic gap

Edit: Chartz numbers? LOL

 

[operon]

Lock it up

 

[SolidSnakex]

The WW figure is from that banned site.

lol

 

[Jarod McChicken]

Thanks for the GfK german numbers, but you can forget the worldwide numbers, they are from Chartzzz.

 

[kabel]

but NPD

btw...NPD is a nazi party in germany. I laugh everytime I see those threads:
"NPD announces..."


haha xD

 

[giancarlo123x]

Hehehe

 

[And_Gignac]

Lol chartZzzz must be getting them cash by allowing the use of their fake data.

 

[Xando]

haha xD

Always weird to tweet something about NPD when you have german followers.

 

[BlackGoku03]

The WW numbers are VG Chartz

Are they close?

 

[Chobel]

Keep Germany numbers, Discard Worlwide numbers.

 

[jbug617]

Are they close?

They are unreliable. It's a banned site on Gaf

 

[Backfoggen]

Seeing those low sales is weird. Everyone around me seems to be buying a XB1 to the point where I'm actually surprised, yet country-wide sales are low.

 

[chadskin]

I wonder how many of these German XBO consoles made their way to the Tier 2 countries before it was released there.

 

[dugdug]

Wait, so outside the UK, those are the best numbers for XB1 in Europe?

Germany leads with just 270k?

 

[bombshell]

Germany:
- PS4 1.2M, Xbone 270K, 4.44444:1
- Rest of Europe has same or worse sales ratios for Xbone, except UK

Insane PS4 dominance.

 

[slavesnyder]

no wonder microsoft does everything they can and more to at least get the lead in the US and UK. otherwise there would be more of a battle with the WiiU than with the PS4...

 

[Majmun]

That why total results>>>>locaal anecdotal musing

 

[Caronte]

Dat 40% market share.

 

[kabel]

It's the best sales ratio for Xbone in GER (outside the UK).

 

[DieH@rd]

Mods have removed WW numbers from OP title

In Germany PS4 leads with almost 1 million consoles.

 

[Percy]

WW numbers from VGfanfiction.net (but probably not too far off the actual WW split between the two consoles.)

Germany:
- PS4 1.2M, Xbone 270K, 4.44444:1
- Rest of Europe has same or worse sales ratios for Xbone, except UK

Damn, I bet Germany hasn't seen ownage like that since... uh... actually no, never mind.

 

[slavesnyder]

I wonder how many of these German XBO consoles made their way to the Tier 2 countries before it was released there.

very good point. chapeau!

 

[gogogow]

Wow and Germany was Tier 1 country too, so it was released alongside the PS4. I wonder how much the 360 sold versus the PS3.

 

[Pezus]

That's a 1m gap already in Germany alone. I wonder what the gap is in Europe as a whole. We know PS4 is ahead everywhere here, even in the UK.

 

[Backfoggen]

That why total results>>>>locaal anecdotal musing

Who said otherwise?

 

[nelchaar]

That's a 1m gap already in Germany alone. I wonder what the gap is in Europe as a whole. We know PS4 is ahead everywhere here, even in the UK.

Too bad Germany doesn't have a Black Friday Microsoft can give away the console with 4 free games.

 

[Nokterian]

Insane PS4 dominance.

Playstation has always been dominate here in the netherlands. Since Xbone wasn't on sale for a whole year only you could buy it from germany or other country.

 

[Xando]

Seeing those low sales is weird. Everyone around me seems to be buying a XB1 to the point where I'm actually surprised, yet country-wide sales are low.

Exactly the opposite with my friends. I'm the only one with a XB1 everyone else is either PS4 or PC. (Even some Wii Us)

 

[Pezus]

I believe we last got an update as of the end of June for both consoles, when PS4 was 540k and XB1 170k. Since then the sales ratio has been 6.6:1.
No, that was not a typo. That's 6.6:1.

 

[Welfare]

Germany:

- Rest of Europe has same or worse sales ratios for Xbone, except UK

Does it actually say this in the article, or is this the OP guessing?

 

[Mr Git]

I'd be interested to see the UK numbers, I'd imagine they're much closer.

I knew it was bad but not this bad.

 

[theprodigy]

hey come on, I wanted to see how the Wii U was doing in Germany compared to France!

 

[bombshell]

No, that was not a typo. That's 6.6:1.

That is why initial marketshare is so important, because early adopters will get their friends to buy the same product, who in turn will get their friends etc.

It's already a lost cause for XB1 in most of Europe.

 

[Nokterian]

I knew it was bad but not this bad.

Well a lot of country's where Tier 2 and didn't get Xbone one whole year after release and no wonder PS4 got a huge jump ahead but also like i said EU is pretty dominant Playstation for a longtime.

 

[Shiggy]

Does it actually say this in the article, or is this the OP guessing?

Haven't found it in the article.

 

[mrklaw]

Does it actually say this in the article, or is this the OP guessing?

If this is true, it is much bigger news than just Germany. Did Gfk not publish data for other markets? I'd like to see overall European PS4:Xb1 ratios, as well as Europe (excluding UK) ratios

 

[funkystudent]

I have to think that the price slashing in the US and UK probably turned even more people off the system outside those countries not getting all those sweet deals.

 

[kabel]

Haven't found it in the article.

Me neither.


OP where did you got that?

 

[Xando]

hey come on, I wanted to see how the Wii U was doing in Germany compared to France!

Last Wii U numbers were 350k from late august.
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=139379737&postcount=53

Me neither.


OP where did you got that?

Haven't seen it either, probably still true though.

 

[Caronte]

Should we expect WW numbers updates after Christmas?

 

[Nafai1123]

Not really surprising. WW the PS4 is going to dominate this generation.

 

[Opt1kon_]

So a 16:9 ratio?

Needs to be 2.35:1 for maximum cinematic impact.

LMAO
