[Aquamarine]

It begins.

 

[TheRealTalker]

wow at MLB


good on MK8


I wonder how much they sold

 

[Exterminieren]

Impressive for Mario Kart.

 

[xxracerxx]

Great for MK8

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Mario Kart 8, folks.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Watch Dogs effortlessly slaying the charts

Spoiler

on five platforms

 

[GulAtiCa]

Good to see Mario Kart 8 do well.

 

[chubigans]

Great for Wolfenstein, game deserves to sell millions. Best shooter I've played in years.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

MLB did surprisingly well unless Wolfie bombed

 

[Cbajd5]

i saw kirby so i thought of this

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Perched for Nintendo press release.

 

[On Demand]

Need individual top ten software.

 

[TheBioLover]

MLB and MK8 did well.

 

[Welfare]

Titanfall 360 ahead of XBO? Jeezz.

 

[goldenpp72]

Kirby made it, alright

 

[UberTag]

I suspect the lower end of that Top 10 has extremely low sales given that Kirby makes an appearance at #9.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Kinda impressed with MK8 considering the install base.

 

[Busaiku]

Wait what.
Today?

Sony is pleased with NPD data, affirming it was #1 for next-gen hardware and software sales. Also claiming mantel for sports with MLB #NPD

.

 

[Alaskanbullworm]

Go Mario Kart, Go!

And Kirby charted as well!

 

[Angelus Errare]

Think Sony will give a break down of MLB sales by platform? I expect PS3>PS4>Vita, but numbers would be nice.

 

[Cuburt]

can't wait for hardware numbers.

Mario Kart is #2 with only a couple days of data, right? Impressive.

 

[Silky]

Hooray, Wolfenstein!!!

 

[HowZatOZ]

Go go Nintendo beast mode.

 

[Michael Armbrust]

Didn't expect MLB to be so high up. Hopefully it did good verse other games doing bad.

 

[Flandy]

Seems MK8 did really well. Good job Nintendo

 

[EmptySpace]

yay mlb the show and mario kart 8.


well-deserved.

 

[RE_Player]

I honestly thought Minecraft on PS3 would outsell the 360 version this month. Also surprised the 360 version of Spider-Man was the highest and Kirby charted.

 

[Blablurn]

shiiiiit. the world cup made me forget that today is NPD day.

 

[kuroneko0509]

Wow at Kirby taking 9th spot

 

[Otakumegane]

It is time.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Impressed that mario kart sold most on the wii u.

 

[Graphics Horse]

I suspect the lower end of that Top 10 has extremely low sales given that Kirby makes an appearance at #9.

Wait where is Borderlands Vita

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Watch Dogs effortlessly slaying the charts

Watch Dogs PS4 probably outsold all those games.

 

[LegendofLex]

Kinda impressed with MK8 considering the install base.

Why would a game that sells hardware impress people based on the install base? Wait to be impressed until you see how much hardware it actually sold.

 

[Raonak]

MLB did better than i would've expected.
MK8 did really good.

both hardware and software went up, good month.

 

[AniHawk]

kirby being the only other single-sku game is a surprise. it's gotta be the most sleeper hitty of all franchises out there.

 

[Kacho]

That MK8 wow

 

[Vibranium]

Wolfenstein in the Top 5!!!!

I am damn happy, hopefully we get dat sequel.

 

[majik13]

Go MK8!

 

[Bgamer90]

Man, and Mario Kart 8 released in late May too. Great news.

 

[Mr Moose]

Mario Kart did well.

 

[Busaiku]

i saw kirby so i thought of this

Why was Kirby not in Mario Kart 8.
That is the most evil trailer ever.

 

[MaximumSpider]

Nice! Mario Kart 8 is so much fun!

 

[TheRealTalker]

hardware sales jumped 95% over last May

[Mr Swine]

Nice that MK8 is so high! But where is Borderlands Vita? I guess it flopped no?

 

[Fergie]

Sony still beasting.

Nice too see MK8 doing well.

 

[Ridley327]

NPD ranks systems from top-selling on down, so the PS4 version did sell the best of the three SKUs.

 

[Dragonborn]

Mario Kart did great, seems WD PS4 was also the best selling as in other regions
