What do they say? I'm not watching some random youtube video just to figure out what you're asking
say said npd number would come out tomorrow
i guess they are wrong beause of the extra week of tracking
So with the news of 1M units of Infamous Second Son sold through to consumers in 9 days I thought I'd bump this thread as well as make a new prediction
March NPD: ISS -> 450K

Now that's borderline cheating.
US isn't 45% marketshare of PS4 tho, it's like 30%?
Is this tonight? And can I still post my predictions?

How reliable are NPD numbers these days. Are they only doing research into physical sales, Are sellers like Amazon and Walmart still not factored in? Online XBL/PSN digital sales?
Next week is Easter holiday i doubt we will have NPD numbers.
No online sales counted. But all major retailers including walmart and amazon
90%+ of retail accounted for

This is great to hear. Thanks Aqua. I wonder when they'll fully implement digital tracking. It's going to be funny to see "over-all sales up xx%" instantly.90-95% of physical and online retailers directly tracked
Remaining 5-10% of the market is estimated
They're building a foundation for reliable digital sales reporting. They did a test run in December 2013 but the accuracy still isn't as good as their physical POS data.
But NPD is planning for the future. They recognize that physical software sales only tells one side of the story, and they want to make their services as comprehensive as possible.

typo?

More than one.
I'm working off that latter assumption, sales transitioned into February.People would do well to remember that March is 5 weeks of tracking whereas last month, February, was only 4 weeks and historically March is a slightly stronger month than February on average
I.E. it's unlikely based on historic trends, increased tracking period and game releases [TF, ISS, DSII, South Park] that most consoles won't be up significantly from February numbers besides Wii U and Vita of course
Actually does anyone think that the MOM increase from January to February might be the sales that would've happened in January moved into February due to the weather and thus February results might not be accurate either? Thus predicting off of them may be less than accurate? Hmm
However, from a look back I don't think your first assertion is accurate. Typically March is flat over February, barring unusual circumstances e.g. PSP price cut 2011. This is on a month/month basis - i.e. the weekly average tends to be down, so March ends up being flat and in a like-for-like comp the weaker month.
With one day left, I am actually considering to change these numbers. I must resist, yet my gut tells me I'll be totally off when it comes to PS4 and XB1 numbers.S¡mon;107160356 said:Ah, I was waiting for this thread.
[360] 125,000
[3DS] 109,000
[PS3]113,000
[PS4] 408,000
[WIU] 102,000
[XB1] 516,000
I apologize that I can't really be a contributing member of sales-age anymore. I'll be around here and there, butwarlife has changed.
