So with September added in, PS4 has a 95k lead. I think Switch is pretty well setup to take October thought. Question is by how much.

it gonna lose october easily.

Big surprise to see you say that.

 

Smash Bundle falls in October tracking period.  Preorders for that bundle have tracked very strong.  The Diablo bundle has tracked well and also falls in October.  

And before you say it, no, Benji did not say October is looking very weak, he said it is looking like a typical October.  But he himself admitted he can't factor in the bundles until they launch.  

Not that any of this will change your mind.  The fact you just made a post suggesting the August number that was within 5k of the PS4's 2015 August without a SINGLE charting game shows how short sighted and stubborn you are.

PS4 with a big September but still a very close race after 3 quarters.

If the bundles are going to be a factor for this month and on, I’m surprised he’s saying the Switch will lose “easily” in October. You got the Smash, Pokemon, and Fornite bundles..not to mention the Diablo 3 bundle (which I’m not sure how effective that will be). But regardless, those are still attratctive bundles, especially the Pokemon ones with the new joycons, dock, and tablet.

Oh, so Super Mario Party came in at the tail end of the tracking period? Interesting.

Yes because RDR2 and Pokemon are aimed at the same demographics.......

tons of core gamers buy pokemon, but its gonna be hard to be interested in that when you have rdr 2 coming being called the greatest game of all time, this all depends though how well RDR 2 reviews.
