Switch was consistently doing above 70k in NA for several weeks. Then it seems like it drop all of the sudden to 57k-ish. I am not sure why it stayed above 70k a week for so long, and now I am not sure why it dropped all of the sudden.

Seitch is sooo close to 20 million now.



Very nice! I love when we pretty much get to Sept for sales. This is when it gets good for all. Can't wait to see what the big 3 do for the holidays. PS4 back on top 2 weeks in a row and Switch still holding very well wow!



The absence of evidence is NOT the evidence of absence...

Perhaps because of Octopath Traveller?

I think it has to be more than Octopath Traveler.  Octopath Traveler had an extremely strong first week, but it fell down quickly in the charts after that.  Switch sales also spiked when Octopath Traveler was released, but while Octopath declined in sales, the Switch kept going strong.  There is something more going on with the Switch than just Octopath Traveler.

Here is info I pulled from VGChartz.

Week Switch (NA) Octopath Traveler Sales (USA)
July 7 46k -
July 14 77k 135k
July 21 70k 40k
July 28 72k 27k
Aug. 4 71k 18k
Aug. 11 70k 15k
Aug. 18 71k ?
Aug. 25 57k ?

The week after that NSW has Monster Hunter coming out.



God bless You.

My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+

When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019

There were three ravens sat on a tree / They were as blacke as they might be / The one of them said to his mate, Where shall we our breakfast take?


Was this the week of PS4 500million edition release?

PS4 doing really great as usual.
