I think it's illogical to expect an overall average of 32k PS4s sold weekly for the rest of the year but that's what makes following this data so much fun.

And yes, I fully expect there will be a lot of people who will receive a PS4 to play Monster Hunter World during the holiday period. It's not a game that will only have a sales impact during its launch and taper off into nothingness after a month.

From week 11-week 52, PS4 averaged 32k/week last year which includes the summer Dragon Quest boost.

I know Monster Hunter isnt going to taper off into nothingness but its not going to cause any more big YOY gains either. Basically the boost it gives to PS4 for the rest of the year will just prevent it from dropping.
