So, 10% of Wii U users bought Pikmin 3/ DKC: Tropical Freeze, ignoring digital of course. Should be a lot more!

I wonder how 3D World is doing.

Oh, did he? In that case congrats to Sony. That's damn impressive. And I also just saw that Infamous was the best selling next gen title, which means it definitely outsold Titanfall on Xbox One. Would be interested in the numbers, but I'm happy to see the game do well. I expected both it and Titanfall weren't done just yet in last month's NPD, and that seems to be proving true.

edit: I'm curious, is Xbox family>Nintendo family? I think it is

I know you're being sarcastic but Mario Golf was only available on 2nd May. How many days of tracking is that? Not that it's going to change the overall big picture but it's probably not that bad compared to first glance at the figure.

Just to mention it, since I'm looking at my tournament results now, but the # of players in the first week America's tournament was ~6K, and the # of players in the past week's America's tournament was ~11K. Both less than the first 2-days 17K figure, so doesn't necessarily indicate any growth. I'd like to think it means some new players joined after the first week, though. :)

It was kind of expected for a campy game like that. In Japan, the first week was 20k Vita and 5k 3DS

Vita owners buy crazy amounts of games, too. My 32gb card is almost completely full, and I buy all my Vita titles at retail! It's getting ridiculous. I bought one of the cases that has the zip binder with the removable pouch, and all the spare slots for games... and I'm on like, my third row.

Vita owners buy games. So many games.

So what are people thinking 3DS numbers were?

I guess <115k because of the XB1 placement?

With Wii + Wii U + 3DS < PS4

-> 199k > Wii + 49k + 3DS

-> 3DS + Wii < 150k

So if 3DS < 115k -> Wii < 35k???

I guess that's maximum so Nintendo family could be significantly lower than 199k and Wii could be all of 6k or less

What was the Wii last month? That could give us a range for this month.

The fact that I see no PS4 number, or even a credible hint as to how much more it sold, leads me to believe the PS4 and Xbox One aren't that far apart this month. If it were close to double, for example, we would have heard as much, same as in January.

My guess is they're saving their announcement for numbers at E3

Because NPD throws a hissy fit when you release specific software SKU sell-throughs and the like. They contacted Neogaf back in the day and demanded the removal of all previous leaks I believe. Pity no one created an archive with the Top 10 placements and hardware sales that I think we were promised every month by NPD :\

Wow... Infamous really didn't see to do all that well in US. I mean even the not at all advertised sku of Titanfall managed to beat it's first month.

Can we also have some numbers for Yoshi's second month please? In Europe it seems to hold really well, I'd love to have a number for month two.

How many weeks are the Kirby numbers (41k) for?

If an IGN listing earlier was by order of sales, it might be above the 82K of Infamous, but who knows.

So If the Wii was 28K last month, why would it be 35K in a smaller April?

If anything wouldn't it be closer to 20K?

But that would make the 3DS 120K, and it should be lower than the X1.

Wait, did anyone confirm the 3DS was lower than the X1?

I don't think it was confirmed. Plus Microsoft ignores handhelds.

Yeah, the hyper-massive industry-record setting marketing campaign-backed immensely saturated XBOX_Titanfall_XBOX on the American favourite console, the 360, certainly did beat Infamous: Second Son, a sequel to a kinda-sorta semi-hit franchise on a console that's six months old.

I mean, come awn fellahs

Eh people were stating the opposite just earlier on in this very thread. It just surprises how misleading and outright wrong those analyses were. I thought it would be closer than that. I mean Microsoft hid that version like a red headed step child and even the XB1 version sold better this month (mostly due to bundles).

Out of curiosity, do we have an LTD for Lego City Undercover (Wii U) or 3D World? Last I remember LCU was at like 230K and 3D World was 570K+.

Ah ok so if MS ignores handhelds, 3DS could be greater than 115k?

Would be great for my predictions
:'(

Note to future self, when you think your predictions are low enough, lower them some more
