any idea what's covered in others?

Ps4 outsold Xb1 8.5:1 in 2016
slightly down from 9.5 in 2015
physical software is the opposite

SgtCobra · Jun 9, 2017

Interesting 3DS software numbers...
Edit: I see you edited your post, I was surprised at it being so low but you forgot to add a few numbers

NSESN · Jun 9, 2017

3DS did quite good.

Pokemon doing work.

Ps4 is killing everything though. Didn't realize it was that big a gap. Software is where it is truly a beast. No wonder nearly every game gets a PS4 SKU.

Bruno MB · Jun 9, 2017

Yearly software Nintendo 3DS sales have reached their peak in 2016, really impressive for a 6 year old Nintendo console.

Using Arstechnica's logic, Xbox One will start outselling PS4 in 23 years! The age of Sony will be done!

sems4arsenal · Jun 9, 2017

Wonder how GTSport will do there this year? seems like it's big there.

Just for a reference, Sony expect PS4's global shipments this fiscal year (April '17 - March '18) to be down 10% (from 20 million to 18).

That thread has software sales, not hardware but thanks for that.

3DS: 5,759,000

Oh and since Bruno posted 2011 and 2012 3DS software, software LTD is 7,136,000.

Although 18 million is 2 million above their original 16 million forecast for FY17. Let's see if the do any revisions through out the year.

So attach rates of ~3.4 (3DS) and ~5.3 (Wii U, assuming with 2012 SW is ~1.6M). A bit lower than the worldwide attach rates, but these don't include digital sales.

Shiggy · Jun 9, 2017

First time the Xbox One outsold the Wii U then?

Bruno is Switch hardware is between 100-150K in Spain currently?

Looking at the annual figures Switch could outsell the Wii U in Spain before the end of the year, only question is by how much. If there is sufficient supply it's possible for the system to sell 500K by the end of 2017

3DS will probably not be able to repeat 2016 but it I doubt they would go down considerably. There is a new price point for 2DS, new Sun/Moon games, more YW games which with a bunch of other small titles coming out during the summer and probably holiday time. I think at the current time Switch isn't really competing with the 2DS/3DS line considerably outside of competing for focus in terms of manufacturing and shipping - which obviously prioritize the Switch.

this is launch hardware:

why is there no 2014 split?

There is this where LTD in early October was 360,000 PS4 and >50K XB1.

Adding those would mean LTD 2016 is

PS4: >1,601,000
XB1: >187,000

Since this is missing holiday 2014 sales, I'd say LTD is closer to ~1.7M PS4 and ~220K XB1. Almost 8:1.

Sterok · Jun 9, 2017

I see more Wii games in the top 20 than XB1 games. And Wii U sold more software than XB1. Not sure which system that says more about. PS4 and 3DS keep whistling along.

nampad · Jun 9, 2017

pretty horrible for Xbox. Hasn't Switch already done that much in Spain this year?

Retro consoles.

You can probably guess what caused the massive increase.

That was because they overshipped to reach 60m, no? So there are more this year on shelves to be sold than last year.

The shipment x sold last year was close to 4m... they can sell more this year with shipment x sold down to 2 million.

PS4 is right now up YoY in major territories.

Why would you think they overshipped? Why would they inceease their forecast and then overship to reach it? Why would retailers overstock a product that's 3 years old? Does not make sense to me.

Happy new owner of a PS4 in 2017.

That top 20 is depressing though.

If this keeps up, Xbox one will overtake PS4 in some thirty years.

Spain is truly a fortress for sony. Also soccer will do always great numbers.

Nothing new on the other hand..

OfficerRaichu15 · Jun 11, 2017

Have they given the hardware numbers for Switch and sales for games such as Zelda, MK8D, Horizon, and Ghost Recon yet?

That chart is Arstechnica's forecasted annual sales, not cummulative.
