No, I'm talking about DBX only on the PS4 versus The Order. It was available on PC, 360, One, and PS3.
Regardless dragonball games are pretty niche. They only really sell to dragonball fans and never do insane numbers just like most anime based fighting games.

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???
You can doubt me, I'm not here to dispute anything.
I'm just presenting one example, as this is not unheard of, disregarding handhelds in the console market.
Let's all wait 10 mins
This is digital only, but you can start loling:
Definitely understand why many wouldn't by The Order digitally.
Interested in seeing retail breakdown.

That's the point he's making. DBX should, theoretically, outsell the Order being that it has multiplat legs.

No, I'm not doubting you. I also believe Sony isn't considering handheld devices in that PR. It's just your example doesn't disprove his point.

I think your giving way to much credit to the average consumer here.
ON amazon right? Just saw that myself and the PS4 version is 4th.

Conclusion: Real men wear moustache and buy retail.This is digital only, but you can start loling:
It was number 2 in PSN sale numbers last month though. I don't know much about the game, its series and past sales or how they did in digital/physical split but that's pretty good I'd think.
Edit: Beaten it seems

The Order being beaten by Xenoverse and Dying Light will not be lol worthy or any of that stupid shit, it will be justice. I'm struggling to finish the Order having had it for 3 weeks now, it's genuinely so shit that I am compelled to play the remainder of the game just so I can see if it stays terrible from start to finish. I've rented and still feel bad for getting it, genuinely feel sorry for those of you that actually purchased the game. Such a disappointment considering the pedigree of RAD.
Well done, Sony. Now let's wait and see how big the gap is between the PS4 and XB1. NPD thread goes live in a few minutes....i like pictures better
Shouldn't that be expected though? The game with the bigger fanbase and has multiplayer outsells a new ip that's only singleplayer?
I agree it is good and kind of surprising. I am currently playing it and punishing myself through the rng for the platinum.
I really wish Xbox1 owners would take the time and purchase these RPG's. If they don't it's clear japanese devs won't even give it a look when making games.
I feel bad for the people who bought evolve digitally to be honest
(should probably give reasons)
It's just does not have the magic left 4 dead had sadly
I watched Amazon charts like a hawk and DBX on PS4 had way better legs than The Order. Not perfectly ideal, but the best anecdotal evidence I could find. I know NPD doesn't break games down by SKU, but it'll be interesting if anyone posts that sort of info. DBX will be better overall, but I still think the PS4 version will be close to The Order.
genuinely feel sorry for those of you that actually purchased the game. Such a disappointment considering the pedigree of RAD.
Well, i'm not one of those. One of the best purchase for me.
Yep.
The majority of them dont pay attention to it already.
At this point Im waiting to see how badly itll bomb.

Yeah I get what he's saying. Welfare was only talking about the PS4 version of DBX seling better though.
The "quickly play it and trade it" is a pretty popular trend for games of The Order's nature.

I've heard the game has had some connection issues and pretty low player counts in-game (latter is a bit surprising to me).

I am the polar opposite. I loved it from start to finish. Looks amazing, good story and fun gameplay. It is currently my GotY.

so I was right about PS4 being ahead of n3DS huh.. I'm kinda surprised that panned out.

Disappointment for you, yes. But for me, best game I played this year.

Top selling retail games of Feb: Majora's Mask 3DS, Evolve, and Dying Light. The Order at #9.

Why it was expected? I thought X1 had some great bundles this month, why did the PS4 sold more? There wasn't any significant release for neither and XB1 had the price advantage, it was good enough for the holidays win last year.
I think the Xbox demographic doesn't really care about Japanese RPGs.
I have an Xbox One and couldn't care less about them outside of Kingdom Hearts. It was the same way for me when the PS2 was my main console (and that console was known for a ton of them); Never really been interested in JRPGs.
Is that in order!? Majora's Mask can't be #1!?

Oh I thought it would be higher.
Oh.. Evolve in second.

Should have been on Vita instead.
Pretty sure handhelds never count in these PR statements about PS4/X1.
Cumulative chart right ? Anyway not good for the orda.
