PAL Charts - Week 39, 2016

Complacent? They are basically launching a whole new format with PSVR and have a big refresh to the PS4 family, let's not forget thier line up would have massive titles in it like gt and a massive new ip from the makers of kill zone if they were to rush thier teams to ship games. People are so short sighted at times, they will have sunk a ton into PSVR and ps pro and would've had some really mega titles this winter if not for allowing the teams time to polish the games.
The sarcasm was obvious

Everyone's entitled to an opinion, but I just don't see this viewpoint at all. They're the first console manufacturer to jump in with virtual reality, and they're putting out PS4 Pro in a couple of months. Meanwhile, both of their competitors are twiddling their thumbs, telling us how great their new consoles will be, without showing anything of meaningful substance.
I can understand if none of what Sony's got coming out appeals to you, but to insinuate they're sitting doing nothing is insane. They're doing more than the competition -- despite being on top.
I know Mario Kart 8 sold 68,000 first week.
This,
I don't know how Sony is being complacent when their console has the biggest library and will be the only one with VR and a Pro version for a year.
If anything Sony's the one who's doing the most.

I'm a huge Granturismo fan but I so wish Horizon gets similar sales numbers, PG deserve much more than that.
They need EU badly to expand the sales numbers. FH3 is the full package, best arcade racer this gen imo.
Sony's aggressive pricing strategies? Sony not putting any effort? uh?
Like all console exclusive IPs competing with an established leader Forza is always "on the wrong platform".
The series does well (Historically particularly helped by bundling) but its a genre that does best in PAL on a console that limits it market share wise.
Horizon is a great expansion of Forza and is clearly growing but peak franchise GR numbers are surely way out of reach - at least on console. On PC who knows how it might grow if given chance?

Sad to see, I'm having so much fun with Recore
It's sad to see but I think much of the performance was to be expected given its nature, the console it's on and the advertising push.

Damn, UC4 looking good.
I know we are talking about incredibly low numbers here, but after a quick look I think Valkyrie Drive: Bhikkhuni is the first Vita game to get on an individual format chart this year (31st on the value chart) and the first Vita-exclusive to get in the all formats full price chart (34th).
At a glance it seems pretty good in comparison to similar games, but not sure we can really read anything meaningful into it. Still, I thought it was notable.

Week 39, 2016 Hardware Data
PlayStation 4 (57%) [+380%]
Xbox One (37%) [-16%]
Others (6%)
Xbox One S had a great second week hold, Microsoft comeback is real!
At least until the release of PlayStation 4 Pro.
Evidently, but the sales figures I posted for some games based on Spanish data from Vandal Radio don't include FIFA 17 week.

Thanks to FIFA 17, Week 39, 2016 overall software sales were 11.4% up by units and 8.3% up by revenue over last year.
FIFA 17 with 1.16 million units sold accounted for 81.5% of all entertainment software this week. To put its impressive launch into perspective, in 3 days it sold more than all Nintendo platforms combined during the first 9 months of 2016.
But there is only so much the mighty FIFA 17 can do, and September overall software sales were 15.8% down by units and 16.7% down by revenue.

Xbox Slim Showing Damn Legs.Overall a very good hold for Microsoft.
But this clearly explains that , the console with lowest price will always come first in sales, irrespective of the brand!!
Tell that to Nintendo when there were Wii U firesales.
What you call firesales was still too expensive for what the WiiU offers to non diehards Nintendo fans. I would have one by now if firesales really happened.
I mean, £99 should have worked really. I don't think they'll get lower.
That wasn't widespread I think, and the few units at that price surely were sold. The thing is that the stock of WiiU has been very low since the first year so firesales were not really a thing
The lower that it went in my country is 200

Not actually that important
A little bird told me that Record sold >5k on X1 at retail, does that matches with you guys' calculations?
Trying to see if this source has been giving me legit numbers for this and other titles...

I think we figured it was 5-6k first week.

First week sales are in that range based on the Xbox One version of Pro Evolution Soccer 2016 and Overwatch (all formats). LTD after 3 weeks should be at around or close to 10,000 units. It is hard to be extra accurate with such a low figures.
This week Recore sold approximately 1,500 units.
33 (13) RECORE (MICROSOFT) ~ 1,500 (-45%)

Mafia III is this week's biggest release and Take-Two have great hopes for it. They are placing Mafia alongside Borderlands and BioShock as one their tentpole brands. Will they be able to establish it as one of the industry's larger triple A-brands?
Mafia II sold about six million units worldwide.
Here is how the series sold in its UK launch:
[Week 36, 2002] 06 (NE) MAFIA (TAKE 2) - 22,000 / NEW*
[Week 34, 2010] 01 (NE) MAFIA II (TAKE 2) - 75,000 / NEW
*This is the combined launch week total of the PC [Week 36, 2002], PS2 [Week 05, 2004] and Xbox [Week 15, 2004] versions.

I have no words for the PlayStation 4 version of FIFA 17, that's a crazy launch, by far the best in the series on a single console. Most of PlayStation 3 users have finally moved to PlayStation 4.
Note that Fifa figures are the combined total of Fifa 17 + Fifa 17 Deluxe Edition.
I feel bad for Pro Evolution Soccer.

This is the year of PS4 here, holidays PS4 hardware sales are going to be really really crazy.
Just to satisfy my curiosity, what was usually cited as the reason to never buy one?

Damn! those numbers for Fifa in Spain... it's like 20:1 difference between PS4 and XO
Plus, the overall numbers are really huge
Plus, the overall numbers are really huge
some because 'they were already over gaming', some because a pc is all they needed and the ps4 was weak.
And sadly a few because it can't be pirated and they didn't want to pay for games, that's still a reality here even if we've advanced a lot in the past years.
