The predictor has been pretty solid so far but I think this month will be the most off. I just can't imagine switch being that far ahead of the other two.

Smash bundle. Besides, once RDR2 launches, I think the gap will close a lot.



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

Looks like RDR isn't having much of an impact on console sales at the moment, which doesn't seem right at all???? Or are we missing some pre-orders from last month or something?



Making an indie game : Dead of Day!

I will never be ok with this as an non-american :P

Is it really only an American thing? Starting the week on the day of the sun instead of the day of the moon (or any of the planets) makes so much more sense than any alternative.

I'm sure there are other places as well, but Monday to start the week is international standard. And I dont really agree with your analogy regarding start of the week, why would that make much more sense at all? :P If we go down that way clearly the day of the moon makes the most sense since the moon is up at the very start of the day hehe

^ that is depressing....

I know I get called out, everytime I say "its time for sony to do something"..... but if not when sales suddenly drop to near half, when then?

I start to think this is out of Sony's hands now. If sales don't recover soon in expectation of Spiderman and RDR2, then a pricecut probably wouldn't cut it either.

That is, if there ain't shortages having a hand in this, of course. But I haven't heard anything about any shortages yet, so pretty doubtful

Looks like no price drop was needed. At least not pre holiday season.

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.

Switch is doing pretty well. All the bundles are putting in work!

The Wii was a beast! Too bad we'll never see something like that again.
