This is amazing. They have got an amazing team right there.
How big is 1 million on 1st day?
Too early to tell how widespread that defect is (I expect: not very)... But PS2's Disc Read Error or 360's RROD hardly slowed down those mega-successful consoles.I wonder how much reports of faulty ps4s will dent enthusiasm.
Huge.How big is 1 million on 1st day?
1.39M sold through.What's the Wii U LTD in the US?
How big is 1 million on 1st day?
Best day one sales ever?
...how?! There isn't even anything really good for it and there's no Wii-esque novelty factor. Mind you I'm getting it tomorrow and I'm incredibly hyped for what's to come, and glad to hear this, but right now I really don't understand what's driving this kind of insane reception. Maybe the marketing in the media is really phenomenal? I'm pretty insulated from that kind of thing.
360 had 326k in the whole November month (launched Nov 22nd).
Driveclub is in Jan and Infamous is in March. Feb looks dry. Not sure about third party releases though.
It is an important battle ground but it won't be hard for Microsoft to flood the UK market given that they're serving half as many countriesMany many many sales. The question is, can PS4 beat Xbox in England?
It's irrelevant (shipped vs sold) really as other threads suggest that the consoles is practically sold out everywhere.
And this number totally proves that wrong!
Those are insane numbers.
I'm still on the fence. The hype is getting to me though.
Q1 next year:
- Thief
- MLB 14 : The Show
- Driveclub
- inFamous
- Destiny beta (maybe?)
Let's wait a year before making that assessment. The real question is whether games consoles will still appeal to the greater masses over the coming years. They were always going to have success at launch. This is indeed great news though and an extremely promising start.Good stuff, more competition in this industry is nice. How soon can we feed the crow to the people in the NPD threads saying the Vita and Wii U were signaling a new crash of the industry?
...Only half kidding. ;P
Q1 next year:

So PS4 sold more than Wii and 360 combined, right?
Driveclub is in Jan and Infamous is in March. Feb looks dry. Not sure about third party releases though.
OMG! Hope no one died! o_0
I'm pretty sure planetside 2 is going to huge as well.
I would suggest getting one asap and even if for whatever reason you decide you don't want it just sell it. These kinds of numbers create news and then hype and Christmas is coming. This could easily be the next Wii if there's no big issues.
I don't really think that Boyes tweet confirms anything - a sold to retail is a sale as well - only Yoshida's tweet can be taken as meaning sell through because that's what he wrote; would be good if someone could issue a clear statement, or if NPD would issue some sort of first day/week report.
really curious about eu numbers now. They're going to sell every unit they can ship. cus ill admit i did not expect 1mill in NA for day 1
Many many many sales. The question is, can PS4 beat Xbox in England?
Remember folks, NA includes Canada and Mexico as well as the US.
1.39M sold through.
Supply constrained. Heavily.It took Sony three months to SHIP 1 million PS3 units to NA retail.
I bet Uncharted reveal at the VGAs will bump the sales even more
A few were injuried, my older brother were there and everything was sold within 2 hours, if I remember well
So PS4 and Wii U install bases are basically the same in US?..1.39M sold through.
