Is it true that Spain is about 20% of all European video game sales on average on a yearly basis?

Is usually around 5-7% of the total European sales.

I think the portal is a seriously shit device, to the point that I think it wasn't worthy of release but seeing it outsell both Xbox consoles sure is something.

Peripheral launches usually sell a lot at launch, especially cheap ones.

There's no story here other than you trying to boost Xbox negativity, which is par for the course for you because you can't take Phil out of your mouth.

Don't cry little chicken, one day you'll grow up.

 

[Raonak]

Portal is a smart device.

But shocked that it beat Xbox lmfao

 

[iHaunter]

So, would you say its 3x less pointless vs Xbox or is Xbox 3x more pointless then DualSense (in Spain)'?

Can someone translate this please?

 

[onQ123]

I thought they only made 10k Portals why would they send 6k to Spain & only leave 4k for the rest of the world?

Stupid Sony lol

So many people are butthurt over at the purple sight. I guess they can't take it that people are posting actual hardware and software sales instead of engagement gibberish. OP got banned there for posting the sales thread

Those ambassador mods have their work cut out.

It's cute that they think they are making a difference. You would have thought they would have realised that them controlling narratives there has no impact in the real world after the Hogwarts Legacy nonsense, but alas.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Lol on the purple forum the OP who made the thread about the Spain HW numbers just got banned.

Is there a history to how Era became a Microsoft circle jerk?

Can't wait for those 2 to be banned as well lol

 

[Esppiral]

A piece of shit with the Sony logo on it selling more than Xbox, yup that is definitely Spain.

 

[tommib]

Can't wait for those 2 to be banned as well lol

Everyone who would go into the merger thread to say “I don’t think this is cool and it’s weird that you’re cheering capitalist consolidation” would be automatically banned. The whole forum is a Microsoft safe space.

Btw it seems like Sony is confident Portal will do good numbers:

 

[StereoVsn]

Yes, I wonder what this means in a thread of Portal outselling Xbox 3 to 1.

 

[Saber]

Portal is not 4th? What the fuck? How can Xbox lose to a remote?

Also, good job Hogwarts Legacy on Switch. Nice work for a port.

 

[TheTony316]

PSP outselling Xbox Series 3:1

 

[GHG]

Btw it seems like Sony is confident Portal will do good numbers:

I don't think that they necessarily think it will do well, they just aren't hiding/obfuscating it's sales numbers. They gain nothing in doing so.

 

[ByWatterson]

I don't even know what pithy shit to say anymore.

 

[MisterXDTV]

Btw it seems like Sony is confident Portal will do good numbers:

- Sony is so confident in their products that they count PS Portal as a true, separate console, not an accessory...

- MS keeps the split between Series S and X hidden....

LOL

 

[Sweden85]

Xbox is dead in Europe..hence M$oft is going to buy up everything they can.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

One of the gaffers here also got a ban on the purple forum. J jroc74 whose feathers did you ruffle? lol

 

[mckmas8808]

He thinks it's about $150 ish but he guesstimates the processor cost and doesn't include R&D, OS development and retail partner margin.



Around the 5 min mark.

Nobody includes R&D and OS Development because that's dumb.

 

[jroc74]

LMAO!!

Hey, I'm staying out of it.

Whew lawd....

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

LMAO!!

Whew lawd....

Just chill in the PS OT, that's the only place where you won't catch a ban for talking about HW numbers.

Except you can buy a Series S CONSOLE for 200€ right now in Spain with Gamepass for 3 months. Same price as this PERIPHERICAL.

How can you say there’s no story here. This forum has been laughing at Portal for months lmao

The Portal needs a PS5 to play games so there's that.

 

[Acquiescence]

So wait, Judge, long-time moderator of ResetEra... is a Microsoft employee? As someone who caught a lot of bans for mocking acquisition cheerleading and the idolisation of Phil Spencer, which eventually led to me being permanently banned from the site, this sure does make a whole lot of sense.

Is that not a conflict of interest? How can moderation of a site like that remain impartial and fair when one of the moderators literally works for one of the Big Three. No wonder ResetEra's reputation is in tatters these days.

 

[mckmas8808]

Btw it seems like Sony is confident Portal will do good numbers:

Sony knows something. They wouldn't want the Portal tracked as a hardware platform if it was going to flatline.

Is usually around 5-7% of the total European sales.

Oh wow. Way less than I thought. So if PS Portal sold 5% of it's shipment in Spain......it could have sold over 115,000 units in all of Europe in week one. That would be mindblowing. So much that it's making me nervous that people might actually think it is a PS handhand now lol.

That's too many Portals sold in the 1st week.

 

[Sanepar]

Can't wait for those 2 to be banned as well lol

Resetera is almost a sponsored forum for Xbox, there are many members who are Xbox staff, mods that are fanboys of Xbox and they control the narrative there to create a Narnia scenario about Xbox there.

 

[nial]

Those fuckers at the purple forum are getting weirder each passing day.
This is what the OP looked like:

Reason: making this thread with real data.

Well it's pretty hard, seeing he is so far up your ass.

I don't see how it's relevant to the point I was making. I'm sure a lot of these sales are bots and scalpers too...

Xbox 4th behind the portal

 

[Cyberpunkd]

It's entirely pointless. You can only play it if you have a great Wi-Fi connection.

Let me introduce you to the wonderful world of European Internet - finer, no limits, 30€ a month is pushing it.

I mean it's not a conflict of interest because none of this really matters, so there are no real "interests," but it is LOL-worthy.

Era, dude. What a joke.
