Within the next 12 months we're gonna be absolutely flooded with PS4 bundles I think. Call of Duty: WWII, Battlefront II, Far Cry 5, Destiny 2, Red Dead Redemption 2 and according to a rumor FIFA is also on Sony's side now, although that isn't that big in the US. And then you also have PS4 exclusives such as Days Gone and God of War possibly releasing in the next 12 months, and maybe even a Horizon bundle to replace the Uncharted 4 bundle or just throwing Uncharted: The Lost Legacy in with the Uncharted 4 bundle.

In terms of software Sony have the next 12 months in the bag.  Currently ps4 is sitting pretty at #10. Even during the big summer drought they have Tekken, crash trilogy and FF12 releasing. Many block Busters coming later in the year. 2017 overall will be an insane year for the software line up especially Japanese styled games.

Hopefully Arms continues hold up on the charts until the next TestPunch and then all the way to its release.

If amazon is anything to go by... PS4 might take this month away from the Switch?

The monthly has Switch at #11 and PS4 at #14, however thats without the last week, where PS4 has been a decent bit ahead in sales.

I doubt that. You also have to consider the switch SKU at 15. 



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

7 of the top 10 items are Playstation items. It just shows you how much revenue they are generation digitally through PSN.

Probably not, going by certain retail insiders on another site, they say that Switch supply has been somewhat similar to last month, with weekly supplies being better yet without the big boost they received for Mario Kart's release. So Switch is likely going to sell about the same, while PS4 will likely do another 200k or so, which is perfectly fine for these type of months.

Yeah, I expect either another shipment to boost NS or it to squeak by with the current lead.
