Support NeoGAF

[Phatmac]

WOW!

 

[Kazuma Kiryu]

Nintendo is getting stomped by Sony and Microsoft. Damn.

 

[DrM]

Wasn't watching - did they specify sold to customers?

He said 'sold through'

 

[Zalman]

About 1.2 million ahead of Microsoft.

 

[AlphaK]

Great numbers!

 

[komplanen]

And it continues to be completely sold out in every store around the world, as reported by gamers online. Microsoft on the other hand...

 

[SwiftDeath]

Gaikai announcements in CES keynote I think fyi

lol called Playstation Now

Oh boy smartphones and tablets included. Gaf Meltdown inbound

 

[DMeisterJ]

So that's 2M-ish consoles sold WW in December? Amazing.

 

[Chuck]

Took 6 weeks to outsell the WiiU

Edit: okay this doesn't count what the WiiU sold in December. WiiU is probably 200k-400k units ahead still. That'll end this month though

Edit 2: Nintendo was using shipped not sold in their numbers. So yeah, PS4 has very likely outsold it

 

[EatinOlives]

So where are the folks who insisted that the WiiU flopped because console gaming was dying and that the PS4/One were to have the same fate?

 

[Ricerocket]

I figured something like 3.5m so that was shocking lol.

It's great to hear X1 and PS4 selling so well because I was getting sick of the Wii U crowd claiming consoles are dead after the Wii U.

 

[Thunder Monkey]

And we have this generations market leader.

 

[Prompto]

That's just insane. Holy shit.

 

[McHuj]

Holy Shift that's amazing. I didn't think they could deliver that many.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Damn.

 

[Hrothgar]

And yet the PS4 shortage is still enormous over here. That number will continue to go up.

 

[Justagamer80]

Wow...

 

[crinale]

Yeah it's really the return of the king...

 

[Marcus]

nintendo am cry

 

[Mihos]

I am more suprised that GAF is still up, than I am with the numbers.

 

[shiftplusone]

So fastest selling is...?

I'm not a math guy

But this seems like way more "per day" going by that fucking stupid metric

 

[RoboPlato]

My prediction of it outselling the Wii U LTD by the end of 2013 was pretty close.

 

[bishoptl]

Not bad, especially considering supply constraints.

 

[R3TRODYCE]

How much has the Wii U sold? LTD

 

[Radec]

Look at House's reaction.

 

[Asd202]

Wasn't watching - did they specify sold to customers?

Yes.

 

[Chocolate & Vanilla]

Seriously gaddamn

 

[LycanXIII]

I guess we found the winning thread.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Took 6 weeks to outsell the WiiU

Daaaaaaang!

 

[MedIC86]

like people say it could have been so much more, everyone i know is waiting for a ps4 sold out everywhere since launch.

 

[studyguy]

It's come a long way since the PS3 launch.

Good on Sony for cleaning up that act from last launch.

 

[DietRob]

Just imagine if they were able to get good production yields. 4.2 million is still a very high number though. Jesus the thirst for this gen was real.

 

[RoKKeR]

Impressive! This gen is off to a crazy start. Huge numbers from both MS and Sony.

 

[jbug617]

They should easily pass 5 million by the end of February

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Shit. That's over 7 million next gen consoles sold in 6 weeks or so right? That's ludicrous. Grats Sony!!!

 

[Mr.Fresh]

What's the fastest a console has ever reached 5 million?

 

[Jack_AG]

Ok. I wasn't expecting this. Holy shit.

 

[SmokyDave]

Fucking nuts. Fair play to 'em, I'm pleased to be one of those customers.

 

[imt558]

Bye, bye, Xbone!!!!!

 

[RulkezX]

The best thing about this is it puts next gen install base at 7.2 million + making next gen only titles more likely.

 

[Dark_castle]

 

[jet1911]

Now release more games Sony.

Spoiler

Driveclub

 

[moltonasty]

Crazy ass numbers. Is it a fact that this has surpasses Wii U LTD, or is everyone just assuming?

 

[Night Angel]

Damn. How far from Wii-U LTD now?

It's nice to see both consoles doing well. Consoles may not, in fact, be dead.

 

[Roland Deschain]

Huge numbers wow. Though MS did alright too.

 

[Asd202]

The gap will continue to grow when supply will be there.

 

[WadiumArcadium]

Add one more to that if I can find one.

 

[graywolf323]

damn, the PS4 really is going to outsell the Wii U by spring

 

[fade_]

Considering you basically couldn't find them laying around anywhere...that's super impressive.

Or maybe, just MAYBE that's the reason you couldn't find them laying around anywhere!

 

[Hindle]

Impressive.
