Pokemon Sighted Near Summit

28/Nov/2016

The record breaking launch of Pokemon Sun & Moon cannot deny the Black Friday boosted ‘FIFA 17’ a return to No1 as it shoots up 2 places from No3.

‘Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare’ at No2 also spoils Nintendo’s party by making the most of a Black Friday windfall and ensuring ‘Pokemon Sun’ debuts at No3 and ‘Pokemon Moon’ at No4. However, it is a spectacular launch for Nintendo, combined they would have debuted in top spot. The Black Friday promotions have a huge effect on nearly every Top 40 title with big gains for PS4 games bundled with hardware, in particular ‘Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End’ which re-enters the Top 40 at No8, ‘Driveclub’, a re-entry at No20 and ‘Ratchet & Clank’ a re-entry at No25. In fact, it is the biggest week for PS4 console hardware since launch, beating last year’s Black Friday.

Pokemon Sun and Moon combined did beat Fifa.

I dont know. Do they usually split them up in the UK?

Oh, that would be interesting. Sad there aren't any splits told in the PS4 area between slim and pro.

Where do you live Kapi? That was happening all along...

NPD and GFK seperates them, while  only MD/famitsu combines them but informs us for the sales of the  versions individually too...

Apart from the fact that they publicize their tracked sales figures every week, this is another one example of superiority by the japenese trackers over the western ones, especially NPD for obvious reasons! HEHE
