Good numbers all around but as a home console. Ps4 is just killing it. And SSB is almost 2 million sales now. For the small install base of the WiiU, that is a really good number. I really hope that Level 5 makes Dark Cloud 3 on the PS4. They seem to do very well on the 3DS and i expect them to do well on a home console. Here is hoping they announce Dark Cloud 3 one day. And GTAV is almost 45 millions in total sales. Congrats R*, well deserved for a masterpiece. I believe it will reach 55 millions for the life time sales.

WeAreLegion4078d ago

I agree with all of that. Haha. 2015 is going to be very kind to the PS4, too. And SSB for Wii U is easily the best in the series.

Gamer19824078d ago (Edited 4078d ago )

GTA V for Xbox One isnt selling no way near as well as PS4. I know theres less consoles worldwide but theres nearly 18 million ps4s to 10 million xboxs meaning not double ps4 to xbox yet gta sold nearly more than 3 times as much on ps4 at 4 million compared to 1.5 million. That surprises me as games with guns usually sell better on xbox. Guess its because its not an all out shooter..

DarkOcelet4078d ago

Call of duty on Ps4 sold 1 million more than Xone version. If this was the Ps3/X360 era then yes i would have agreed with you but with Ps4/Xone era. No way a multiplatform is gonna sell better on the Xone unless its heavily marketed for it but even then games like Fifa 15 and COD AW were marketed for the Xone but sold more on PS4.

TVG4078d ago

I didn't buy it on my X1 because I am tired of all these remakes. I don't care if they added another perspective I want new games. I am not sure why so many people on PS4 are desperate enough to buy the same game again. Hmm....

Magicite4077d ago

I guess these are the great times for everyone. Im owner of a gaming PC and PS3 and hopefully soon also PS4.

demonddel4078d ago

Vgchartz Never lies until we start losing

kurruptor4078d ago

But Xbone is going to catchup right? Software sales difference is major.

torchic4078d ago

yeah what's up with the large difference in software sales between PS4 & X1?

kneon4078d ago

It just about even given the relative size of the install bases.

Concertoine4077d ago (Edited 4077d ago )

I hired an expert detective, he said it's the 7 million lead that the ps4 has.

stuna14078d ago

The PS4 and Xbox1 software attach rates are pretty good and comparable to their fanbase numbers

Xbox1 are about 4 games to a system

PS4 are about 4 games to a system.

Truthful I actually expected the Xbox1 to have a higher software attach rate, considering the PS4 has no games and all! /s

But I guess the 17 million plus gamers seem to have scraped up something to play.

Not to mention I don't think VGChartz has a way of accounting for digital sales of consoles or software, so the actual figures could be a lot higher on both accounts.

Nekroo914078d ago

So here Patcher...for the xbox to catch up the ps4 they actually need to sell more consoles worlwide.

DarkOcelet4078d ago

Honestly with the plethora of exclusives coming to PS4 in Q1/Q2, unless ms announce something for those particular months soon, they will have a hard time catching up at all.

SmielmaN4078d ago

Plus Project Morpheus could be big

pyroxxx4078d ago (Edited 4078d ago )

I can guarantee you they won't be catching anyone,.. next year the gap won't be 7-8 million,.. it might be 15-18 million (absolute numbers between them),.. They might be winning a month or two in US with deals and cuts (but those months are important,..) But overall,.. I doubt they will be closing even in US,..

It is really hard for them to close the gap (in US ) if they get outsold for 10 months (US),.. and then try to recoup over holidays all the new gap that accumulates over the year,..

And now that they raised the price again,.. It is going to be a bloodbath,.. even in US

To be catching someone up,.. you must start selling more to start closing the gap and they haven't won a single week globally ,.. What they can try to do is slowing down how much (the rate) they get outsold per anum,.. Instead of 7 millions a year,.. maybe try not to get obliterated as much,.. This year though,.. it is probably going to be even worse for them,.. Sony is just dropping exclusives throughout the year and even PlayStation related IPs that are multiplat (like MGS5)

So yeah,.. no,.. At least not soon,..

MasterCornholio4078d ago

I'm really curious to see how consumers will react to the XB1s price hike.

Anyways I know its VGs but I'm sure the consoles are selling well.

DarkOcelet4078d ago

If it goes back up to 400 then the exclusives are the ones that are going to determine which console will have the upper hand and the PS4 clearly has it in terms of amount.

Gamer19824078d ago

They do going into 2015 yes. I cannot see what MS is going to do other than an official price cut which they cannot afford to do. A temp price cut was feasible at holiday time as people buy a few games with it. MS had more retail exclusives in 2014 and did the better bundles in the Christmas window not to mention the price drop yet still couldn't beat Sonys juggernaut. Now prices have gone back up and Sonys exclusives are coming they are going to take a bit of a beating.. At least until September.
