Sony response:
"We are happy to announce Playstation 4 was the best selling console in Japan for November."

I told you they wouldn't say any exact numbers.
Now let's see if MS copy and pastes that on Xbox Wire.
In December MS will probably win, next year when the deal ends is the real question.
Naturally.

Perhaps they needed more celebration gifs? Also, is it public relations if it's an internal email?
lol, harsh, but true.

I actually wonder if Sony have a record of how many times PS4's have been turned on throughout November?

Me? Because there was no PR for BF from MS, highly unusual from them.
The "best month ever" bit could be worldwide too. Or comboing UK.
So they may be mixing their datapoints somewhat to get there.

I thought new news for new thread. Could have just updated the NPD stuff into my own post, I always do that anyway

Pretty much. Hollow victory that I doubt is sustainable.

are we sure it's not US + UK for november?
Sony should just come out and say they won worlwide easily in November while doing kinda nothing.
Salt is starting to flow.

Thats what I was thinking. Seems very safe for their big comeback win.
When and if sony releases a statement we will have a better idea of how big a win this actually was.

That's probably what they'll do.
More importantly, Amazon keeps winning.
Here's December so far, by the way: http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/2014-12/videogames/
Nice knowing ya, Sony.

For a Canadian Amazon.com is not a good deal.
Yeah. I want to know if this is WW or USA... We'll see.

Beat Sony in UK but not US?
It's true.

Probably hedging their bets in case december turns out bad for them.
We made lots of money during November since we didn't sell anything at a loss?

hey now, don't get ahead of yourself. You were adamant they were going to destroy Sony so you're not off the hook till we get numbers
Hmm, yeah, rereading the PR, they are non-specific with that line.
I keep forgetting how much obfuscation MS manages to pack into their press releases and took it at face value. :\

"Sorry, everyone. PS4 is finished, the dream is over. The Last Guardian is cancelled."
I sold my Wii U the second I bought it because I can't stand consoles that don't sell.

Looooooool
Some impressive stuff from MS
I think bigger then winning this month is selling the most software for a gen 8 console.
Yeah, they can just say they made more than x amount of dollars worldwide or in the US.
We're taking our ball and going home.
*One price drop.
The Kinect SKU was $450 instead of the $500 at launch. Kinectless was $350 ($50 drop). Also, didn't Sony have free game bundles/Black Friday deals too?
