Meanwhile, the COD bundle has gone Super super Saiyan on Amazon up to number 5 so it seems like another advantage to the COD bundle is crossing interests.  So for example, it must be Street Fighter 5 and what not boosting the PS4.  So, PS4 sales go up and those Street Fighte fans have to get the COD bundle because... it the only thing around, and now those gamers are exposed to COD... and its DLC...

But, you are also forgetting that there is no other bundle right now so if they stopped selling it there would be a standalone PS4 for $350 and an Xbox One with Gears and two othe new games and free gift cards for $300... Yes a SFV bundle would be nice but since that isn't possible, COD is the only choice until Uncharted comes along and we will probably get a $350 Uncharted bundle as well.   Only seems natural.

The reason there is no other bundle is exactly what I'm talking about.

There should be a Street Fighter bundle pushed right now replacing the CoD bundle, CoD itself is a non-factor anymore, that's what I'm saying, Street Fighter software sales are already pushing that bundle, was there a Street Fighter bundle being pushed and BO phased out it would be selling just as much as this one.

CoD should have been phased out already for a Street Fighter bundle before it's Uncharted time.

That was a missed opportunity.

You keep saying phazed out like there isn't a contract that states how many units must be bundled.   Like Sony can just stop making them because thats how business works.  Like they are going to just take a loss on the copies they paid for.   Come on we are adults and we have exposure to business and how things work.  Also, I would like to respectfully disagree with your statement that CoD itself is a non-factor.  Its still the biggest factor.  I agree that Street fighter should have a bundle.   But also remember that Uncharted was orignially supposed to launch in March so a Street Fighter bundle might have been cutting it close.   So yes, its a missed opportunity at this point.
