Possible. XB1 is on fire sale right now.



Woah! Thanks for the numbers!



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Hey Welfare, you should repost the LTD chart I made on the new page of the NeoGAF NPD thread. People suck at checking through old pages for data.



Overwatch standalone SKU NPD data:

Jun-16: 421.6K


As you can see, Overwatch is actually HIGHER than its release month in May where it sold like 350K (can't remember exact number).

Even when you look at standalone packaged goods of Overwatch which represents a mere fraction of its overall sell-through, you can see how word of mouth continues to have a tremendous impact on the product.

If you repost this on NeoGAF, please include what I said about Overwatch, not just the numbers. I want to get my commentary across there too, not just raw numbers.



Wow... that's great for Overwatch.

 

It sold 361k in may Aqua, without PC SKU. June number is for PS4/XB1 only?

Sure thing.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

Everything down year on year, and by quite a bit. XBO Slim/Scorpio and Neo wait having an effect? I doubt it, but I dont know what else could be causing the decline.

Thanks a lot Aqua



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

I think for the PS4, its just really due for a price drop. Its been at $350 for a while, thats marking a $50 price drop in almost 3 years. Though i feel sony is ok bleeding out what they can get for it at $350 and will probably drop it to $300 this holiday season. I actually wish the XB1 can outsell thr PS4 for at least a two months. Cause i fesr if thst doesnt happen sony will just lesve the PS4 at $350.

If you ask me, sony should drop the PS4 down to $249..... wishful thinking i know....



Oh, already have leaks, thanks Aqua.

Oh man, PS4 did WAY worse than i thought... Not bad XBO numbers considering the Slim annunced, even though there were insane promotion, but still. Better than expect.
