so the bundle caused a bump
january xb1 sales: 142k (4 weeks) february xb1 sales: 258k (4 weeks) march xb1 sales : 311k (5 weeks - 2k units drop per week form february --> 3,2% drop from previous month - wow) april xb1 sales: 115k (4 weeks) may xb1 sales: 77k (4 weeks - 2 tracked weeks with the new announced sku) june xb1 sales: 197k (5 weeks, only 4 including both sku - 10k units bump per week from april --> 33,5% bump from april ) july xb1 sales: 131k (4 weeks)
xb1 june to july drop = 26,5k units (~5,05k units a week --> 13,5% drop from previous month) ps4 june to july drop (including tlofu sales bump) = 28k units (~5,1k units a week --> 10,5% drop from previous month) so that is how u explain the kinectless sku failed to move units? becaus it dropped in a month, where all other dropped too. even they had a big exclusiv launch?
and we can clearly see. there was no february / march bump. why dropped april sp badly if the titanfall bundle didnt sell well? |
I never said anything failed to move units. I said they failed relative to what PS4 is doing, yes TF gave a small boost but it wasn't sustained and till the Xb1 could not top PS4. The kinectless sku definitely moved units, hence the massive boost in June but again, it couldn't help Xb1 match PS4 and the weekly ratio is back getting close to 3:1 even after both of those have happened. Sure, without them XB1 would be in an even worse place but in the long term they have done nothing, XB1 sales are back to the lows of the pre kinectless announcement. I'm saying that these bundles in the future will of course help but it won't stop PS4 outselling XB1 by a good ratio
