I don't think they include bundles packaged with hardware.

I voted xb1 "wins" March NPD though I don't think by a particularly large margin. The deals for it were really good throughout the month. I just couldn't bring myself to get one though, maybe after a post summer(guessing) price drop with something that interest me more than TitanFall.

Dont know about hardware, but I'd expect ps4 to win software in that case. Many tianfall numbers missing due to bundles.

Ya Sony will win software quite easily, even if all bundles (ISS, TF) are counted.

Agreed.

Should be a good NPD. Be prepared, I expect fun.
