Forums - Sales Discussion - July 2017 NPD Thread! Switch #1

Switch should win this month, a brand new console/handheld should be at least. Splatoon seemed to have done pretty good as well. Should be a fight between splatoon and Crash

Outside of Japan, I think Crash has easily won that battle.

Haha, jeez we can just attack anyone on this site now? Obviously the numbers Jal gave us were legit. Mocking someone for no reason (skepticism on the numbers at this point is weird) is childish.



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

Hey, it's Welfare! Nice to see you again, man!

And thanks for bringing in a voice of reason. There's literally no point in me faking an identity to gain...what...a handful of posters maybe interested in what I have to say?

If I wanted to win a popularity contest to stroke some kind of ego, there are far more efficient ways of doing it.

I just noticed that Jal356 was all on his lonesome regarding the numbers. Mat didn't really address them; neither did CosmicQueso or John Harker, IIRC. So I thought I'd just vouch for them in case there was any lingering suspicion to help you guys out. Hopefully the mods can confirm that I'm not a phony.

If Amazon is anything to go by it seems Splatoon won America. Although Crash definitely won Europe.

The tipping point for me was when Venturebeat mentioned that the PS4 had its best June ever after Jal356 leaked the numbers, as in Jal356 showed that the PS4 had its best June before Venturebeat officially confirmed it.

You got my seal of approval.



As a consumer, I don't like the secret nature of hiding sales. Japan has released numbers for years and no one blew up. Here it seems to protectionist. After all, as consumers, we are the ones generating this information. It is ours literally.



I wonder what position Forza Horizon 3 is going to be in for the month of July.



Proud to be a Californian.

I think it made top 20 last month. Except, without numbers, its just an arbitrary number.
