| binary solo said: My thinking is along the lines that we're only 12 days into the month, and as the month progresses (and PS4 pro launch gets closer) sales for PS4 and PS4S may start to drop away and Xb one may nudge into the leading position. I don't think we can make hard conclusions this early in the month. and certainly not for October. September gets a boost with PS4S release, but it's not exactly high on the monthly chart right now. I kind of expect PS4S sales to go the same way as Xb one S and drop away quite a lot, probably even moreso relative to Xb oneS as the PS4P is following hot on its heels and the 4S essentially becomes the poor man's PS4. It could be that 4S's pre-order peak position is the highest it climbs on Amazon and that by the end of the month 4S will be quite low on the monthly chart. And BOIII bundle is still the top-selling PS4 sku. When are people going to start anticipating the Infinite Warfare bundle and hold off for that? I assume Sony still has the 3rd party deal with Acti on CoD, so there 99.999% certainty will be a 2016 CoD bundle. Another thing to make people take a waiting attitude to buying a PS4. |
You don't assess something base on what could happen, you assess something on what IS happening right now. I've never seen you post fuzzy logic before. Right now the PS4 is taking the month without a doubt. Things can always change but saying the XB1 could take this month in the face of the data presented here seems a little odd regardless of how many 'what ifs' there are.
The PS5 Exists.
