Not doing estimates expect PS4 to up slightly YoY, Xbox One down.

SNES mini > NS > PS4> Xbox One



SNES mini won.

 


Final U.S. Monthly Hardware Rankings

SNES Classic: #5
Switch (neon): #15
Xbox One X: #16*
Switch (grey): #32
PS4 Uncharted 4 bundle: #47
PS4 Pro: #65
PS4 Pro 1TB Destiny 2 bundle: #68
New 2DS XL (Black & Turquoise): #79



I'm not sure. I guess PS4 should win this month and Switch will win October?



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

Tagging



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Boutros, do you really consider it okay to put a countdown in the thread title when you very well know that nothing's going to happen at that date and time?

Fixed.



SNES Classic > PS4 > Switch > XB1 > 3DS
