It really should be in your tag.

no it shouldn't. i didn't think it up myself, I got it from a reviewtechusa vid. which, after all was said and done, I realized was not wise.

 

[Kayant]

Maybe CBOAT 7-10k was in reference to this month?

CBOAT is Nostradamus confrimed.

 

[DarthWalden]

What if you posted stuff to throw the NPD off the scent like if you saw 712142 and you posted 712187... They would never know

 

[The Last One]

come on man, are you guys really never gonna let that go

 

[Elandyll]

if i leak a single gfk figure, i'm going to get burned at the stake

You have my sword!



/kiddin, not taking any risk

Amirox still gets mocked for his "The age of Sony is done!" post, he made nearly a decade ago. GAF doesn't tend to let jokes go.

come on man, are you guys really never gonna let that go

I still see people in threads saying I call for anyone who has a Bish Tag to be banned. Just gotta learn to take it on the chin, I'm slowly catching onto how to do it

It isn't a smart idea to just regurgitate information you get without actually thinking about it. You built this legacy...time to start appreciating it.

And stop counting the number of times you are avatar quoted....it is going to happen a lot.

The same guy who leaked last month.

My predictions are already fucked. Damn it.

 

[The Shogun]

My predictions are already fucked. Damn it.

Hey if its accurate and a bigger gap then November so will my general view of the result. I'd be surprised if it was a bigger gap then November in terms of percentage but with these rumblings I could very well be wrong on that.

 

[Cyborg]

So how did the X1 and PS4 do? I see no update in OP

 

[loaf of bread]

Guys I just got word from an extremely reliable source that PS4 won by a pretty huge margin, like over 500k. I've known the source my whole life and its very reliable and its only leaked several times and this is one of them.

[harrisk954]

not if MS announces a permanent XB1 price drop at the windows event next week.

That would make no sense. Why let the price go back up to $399 for a month? That is foolish. More likely, if MS loses its momentum (very likely based upon the PS4 being back at the top of the Amazon best seller list and XB1 dropping), then perhaps in the Spring? Or more likely at E3. I don't see a price drop before then.

 

[ZhugeEX]

90-95% hard / primary data......5-10% estimated

Cheers for that Aqua. So pretty standard then.

I have a relationship with a similar market research company, not a direct competitor of NPD but similar (telecommunications sector). They've told me similar information in that more than ~90% of their data is hard data and the rest is not.

My 1.3m prediction for Xbox One is probably wrong. I didn't believe it was going to grow in December because november had the price drop bump and BF is huge these days.

I'd say XB1 will be well within' 100k LTD of PS4 in the US. Microsoft do the holidays so damn well, it's almost ingrained at this point. Christmas holiday = we xboxen now.

They would have had to sold more than 600K more than it for that to happen. Seems unlikely.

That would be less than the gap that was made back in 2013. Not happening.

It depends of the bread too, some bread just look like ass to begin with

 

[3rdamention]

PR should be fun if they release any. MS will talk about selling the most consoles in the US for the entire holiday season (with an asterisk saying November and December) and some percentage to detail the growth from sales before the Holiday.

Sony will tout the highest console sales in the World during the holidays (with another asterisk) and maybe something about bestselling console in the world for 2014.... You can almost see it coming....



I doubt we hear about the PlayStation or Xbox family this month.

Welp the first post I see when checking in is of a bread's ass.

Yep. Back to crunching.

 

[keit4]

• Xbox One became the best-selling console in the U.S. in November and December and weekly average sales during these months outpaced Xbox 360 by 50 percent at the same point in its lifecycle.*

• Xbox One also sold more games throughout November and December in the U.S. than any other current-generation platform.*

The Xbox One deals were quite popular and have inspired a new promotion starting January 16 where fans in the U.S. can buy an Xbox One for $349 at their preferred retailer.

Haha, ya don't say.

Xbox 360 became the best-selling seventh generation console of all time in the U.S.

Oh damn, ok. That's pretty impressive.

I rescind my earlier snark. This is actually good stuff.
