Nope.  Untag just retags.  Only way to really untag would be to go post in a bunch of other threads to move it down the buddy.

I think Xbox One might have a chanje this month a small one

Amazon, with a 100% record so far this generation, predicts PS4 will win. But the chart is somewhat more of an oddity with a few XB one skus in the top 100 and only 1 PS4 sku, But the gap between the PS4 sku and the highest XB one sku is quite large.

So I'm going to stick with the very reliably accurate Amazon and I will be surprised if it turns out to be wrong. Amazon had some funny stock issues part way through August, but I think in the wash up it will still come out accurate.

30 minutes until we find out for sure, right?

So, what happened this month?

Anyway, hoping to wake up to lots of lovely numbers.



Hmm the lack of Microsoft PR may be telling.

Indeed, almost 15 minutes past the hour of NPD release and if all is quiet on the MS front it doesn't look likely that Xb one took the prize. Don't we normally have other more neutral folks tweeting the winning hardware and software pretty much on the minute though? 15 minutes of radio silence from everyone is a bit odd.

Craptastic month all around then?

Don't worry Microsoft's PR team will make it sound like a fabulous month regardless. Their PR statement is the best stuff coming off NPD lately.

WHo's he and why would he know and be the forst to speak up on it? Though I don't doubt he's right because Amazon said it first.
