NPD November 2018: All three consoles over 1.3m for the month
- Thread starter ZhugeEX
- Start date
No that is revenue for the year.
No mention of hardware sales itself
Switch is likely to hit its peak next year with how stacked the line-up currently looks, but I think everyone is preparing for softer years on PS4 and XB1 as they begin to transition to the next generation of hardware. Not unhealthy, mind you: that's just how these things go at this point in their life cycles.
RDR2 and CoD are around 1.5m.
With digital it is #1 thanks to Nintendo's PR, physical only is likely-ish.
$ sales. LGP was 60 and 100$ depending on which version you purchased compared to 30 and 40$ games
Didn't expect switch to take November.
PokƩmon having the second highest debut in the franchise is also surprising.
Guess people *really* like PokƩmon.

Uh ? I'd like an explanation then 'cause what I'm reading is that Switch came on top of the charts revenue-wise but, as we know from the leaked numbers, PS4 was on top this month.
We know from leaked numbers that PS4 sold the most units this month.
I really don't see the need for next gen
Did ps4 win in units sold? Nice to see ps4 exclusives in the best selling games of the year list

So is Battlefield doing...well? I remember the Fallout exact numbers that were accidentally revealed were around 400K. BFV is behind FO
That's why I miss when they used to rank it by units instead of revenue.
My surprise was the mention about PokƩmon Stadium, but someone explained that it's because it was a 80$ game, which I didn't know.
I thought you were misinterpreting what the post said
I know nothing of any leaked numbers but cool if so.
Next november npd is probably gonna have both Pokemon games ontop.
Sony is doing some big numbers with its exclusive games this gen. Geez! I didn't imagine seeing Spiderman and GOW selling more than GTA 5 this year lol
Your quote says:
1) SW most $ in Nov 2018
2) PS4 most $ in 2018 thus far
Just barely. Their newest and biggest game getting beat by a 5 year old game.
That's not what this says though.
If I had to guess I would say:
By units:
- PS4
- Switch
- Xbox One
- Switch
- Xbox One
- PS4
And they are only comparing it against the Pikachu version, not the two combined.
I guess they'll just have to live with Far Cry 5 being their biggest game of the year!
Makes sense for the Switch to be on top in $ sold since they weren't discounting their system like the other two.
Yeah okay I see where the confusion comes from. I know what the quote says, but I should have precised that the "PS4 is first by units" come from leaked data rather than the quote itself, which is just about the Switch being the top hardware revenue-wise. I'll edit to avoid further confusion.
Switch took the top spot for revenue, kinds of tells us about the One X then for this month.
Maybe, lol.
I don't see anything about unit sales
PS4 was #1 in Units for the month of November, but the more meaningful story of the month is dollars. So I highlighted that.
Pokemon comps include ALL other Pokemon titles, but each Pokemon title is listed separately. Pokemon Sun is a different product than Pokemon Moon, for example.

If you are talking about GTAV, the game sold 15m units in 2017 outselling 99% of the games releasing this year.
So yeah, there is no shame about that.
