Don't know exactly the point. But, Wii U surely is above 10k thanks to Splatoon. I can't confirm that for PS4. I mean, it problaby has helped, but in my opinion, not that much I expected for a summer promotion.

The Point is that a limited time frame bundle will cause a major increase in sales all the way until that time frame is up which is why Ps4 is performing this way. Yes its baseline has improved but with how little releases it had over the summer it would be on Wii U level or lower in its sales without the deal. Splatoon was released in may and its effect is still on going. This deal lasts until MGSV launches (maybe longer I'm not exactly sure).  Its similar to the xbo deal last holiday season.

PS4 may be sustaining better because of the digital freebie, but to say it's the cause of a major increase of sales is a bit odd. It's impossible to prove how much it's impacting overall numbers, because it's all conjecture. I can't imagine Bloodborne appeals to that many people several months after launch. The audience for it is small and is very likely to have purchased shortly after release.
