Yeah well France has bad taste so it makes sense they'd buy 1 million of them.
A million slugs died from the salt in this post.

Of course not. I just expected the ratio of PS4:XB1 to be lower than in Germany or at least around the same.
Germany: 4.44:1
France: 3:1
I think the ratio will go up rather quick now. Atleast in germany the Xbox has been a no show since spring/early summer.
That Germany ratio is being disputed.

Consumers are fickle, no country is anyone's land. If a console (or any consumer product) sells better in a particular region, it more than likely isn't because of any particular loyalty, but because that company just did a better job at selling into that reigion.
Microsoft did a better job at selling the Xbox 360 in the UK than Sony did the PS3. Sony are doing a better job at selling the PS4 into the UK than Microsoft is doing selling the Xbox One into the UK.
This "x country is <company> land!" stuff isn't really useful or accurate.
France is typically a stronger console market than Germany. It also benefited from tier 2 imports.The XB1 numbers are a bit higher than I thought they would be though tbh.
UK:
PS4: 1.5 million
Xbox One: 1.1 million
Spain:Old numbers
PS4:181,000
Xbox One:35,000
France:
PS4: 1.000.000
Wii U: 490.000
XBO: 300.000 - 330.000
AU:Old numbers
Xbox One:65,917*first 3 days*
Germany:Wait for official updated numbers
PS4: 540,000
XB1: 170,000
Portugal:Old numbers
PS4:21k
I am so stupid, forgot about that.1 million PS4s in germany was announced by sony.
1.2 million was leaked from the same website that leaked earlier numbers(the august numbers i think).
Unimportant market = Everything that is not U.S or UK.
Nah dont mine silly old me.Huh, what's wrong with the latest numbers for Germany now?

He is talking about the 1.2 million not 1 million.Was referring to this:

When I see such numbers I wonder who won November and Black Friday Worldwide, MS put UK in their "winning PR" like it means they own all of Europe while in reality France and Germany are not really that far behind in terms of units sold.
I don't think so. You can't deny an attachment to a company. Sony manage to outsold Microsoft 2:1 in Europe with the PS3 (360 had TWO more christmas, and 360 was a good console).
In fact, I just think PlayStation is a more popular name. In France, everybody (like parents) knows PlayStation, and I'm pretty sure it's not the case with Xbox.
That makes 3.7m in UK, Germany and France. These markets together are going to be as big for PS4 as the US will be for XB1, especially if the temporary price cut in the US really is temporary.

accidental DP
Those 3 EU countries would easily be 4-5m if Sony did not route so many consoles to US and UK in first 4-6 months of sales.
BTW, what's are the latest NPD totals?

It just wasn't a official Gfk report i think.
The same site that reported the 1.2 million leaked earlier numbers aswell.
@John Bender:
I'm not sure about the XBO anymore (because you added it to the OP), Wii U & PS4 are confirmed though.
See: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=143882617&postcount=306
Yeah but there is 130 million people in Japan, and around 60 million in France (and 80 in Germany). So it's not that great.
UK:
PS4: 1.5 million
Xbox One: 1.1 million
What's the source of this?
that's a 2014 end of year projection
only problem is that Xbox One has already passed 1.1m
Yeah well France has bad taste so it makes sense they'd buy 1 million of them.
Actually they haven't. Xbox One has most likely surpass 1.1M LTD but not 1.1M 2014.
That Germany ratio is being disputed.

1.Not a funny joke

4.My weewee smells like Pringles
Meanwhile, in the USA sales will surpass 6 million any day now if not already (5.63m Nov LTD).
1.1m refers to LTD though
