[AuroraMusisAmica]

I need to revalue XB1s position in the American market. The fact that it was more competitive against the PS4 than the Series is with the PS5 kind of blows a hole in my perception of a console that was always lagging behind.

The reveal, E3, and Kinect disaster certainly darkened the overall outlook ths systems' early days. But it did well in the states.

Another stellar year for 360, the system finally outselling the Wii in the market.

2014 is when I started posting on NeoGAF in the sales threads. My first thread was the April 2014 predictions. I didn't do too bad either that month!

I do cringe at my old posts. Just like I do with anything I post in the last 20 minutes

In my trip down memory lane I'll come across some neat posts that make me chuckle with future knowledge. Like this, from good old CosmicQueso

Smart guy right here. Nintendo really does have the #1 console 8 years later (2022)

This one made me really laugh. Forza Horizon 5 is one of the most played Xbox games today.

Hey we tied here!

 

[Kirby]

7-10k dif

The greatest thread derail.

 

[allan-bh]

2014 was really entertaining to follow. The doom of Xbox One, losing for PS4 even on Titanfall's month, the massacre on Destiny's launch and them the comeback after a huge november/december closing the gap in more than 600k.

It even create the illusion that despite WW win of PS4 being sealed, number one spot in America was open, which didn't materialized, but this is talk for the 2015 thread...

 

[Welfare]

Oh yeah I also went back through every thread and reformatted nearly everything so it should be easier to look for items that aren't in tables if you just Ctrl + F the Key for each platform that's in the OP.

 

[Xevross]

This was the first full year I followed so this is now a fun trip down memory lane rather than the interesting history lessons of the past threads.

7-10k dif

The greatest thread derail.

I think all of us who experienced that moment will never forget it. Was it ever worked out what happened there? Was he just trolling or did he just make a mistake?

This was a really entertaining year in general, PS4 building a huge lead but then losing almost all of it in the holidays as Xbox had way more stock and were more aggressive. It was surely a big lesson for Sony that it feels like they might have forgotten this year.

 

[Josh5890]

This was arguably the Wii-U's best year and it barely made a blimp on the radar. Only Smash made the top 10 for the year.

I find it more hilarious that the person you quoted mention the next generation of consoles and lockdown in the same sentence. Funny (not really) how history went.

 

[saicho]

thanks for the thread and the trip down the memory lane to GAF

This was arguably the Wii-U's best year and it barely made a blimp on the radar. Only Smash made the top 10 for the year.

I find it more hilarious that the person you quoted mention the next generation of consoles and lockdown in the same sentence. Funny (not really) how history went.

Where is that guy now? We need him for prediction cause that post was so right in several ways

 

[Concurseiro do Futuro]

Great year for Xbox One. Microsoft was super agressive. U$349,00 with AC Unit for november and december. A U$399,90 Xbox Series X could do wonders now.

 

[Rob2K19]

[PS3] Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 Remix: 275,000

The best collection doing as expected in the final month.

 

[Welfare]

Because the October 2023 Circana thread will be going up on Wednesday, I'll be posting NPD 2015 next Wednesday.

I've also gone through every thread and added which week of the month each hardware impact happened and how many weeks in the month each NEW software was tracked.

Because the October 2023 Circana thread will be going up on Wednesday, I'll be posting NPD 2015 next Wednesday.

I've also gone through every thread and added which week of the month each hardware impact happened and how many weeks in the month each NEW software was tracked.

What a spectacular job you did!!! In fact, all of you here are very dedicated! Congratulations! I'm looking forward to seeing the numbers from 2017, when the Switch was released.

Great year for Xbox One. Microsoft was super agressive. U$349,00 with AC Unit for november and december. A U$399,90 Xbox Series X could do wonders now.

but they were coasting off big success and momentum of 360. they eventually lost a lot of that with one, which gave the series a rougher baseline, and series seems to be doing a little worse even.

2014 has a pretty incredible leak of hardware figures. I'm reposting this here for those who want to see.
There are 2014 figures for the Nintendo DS.

Spoiler: MAY 2014 FULL HARDWARE

Spoiler: JUNE 2014 FULL HARDWARE

As a fun fact PS2 was tracked and sold at least 1K units in 2013.
