"It doesn't matter if Switch or PS4 is ahead"... "but I decided to say anyway since Switch was ahead with one week bonus"

I just copypaste almost hole post from Resetera, and that information actually gave quite clear picture how they stands without need to calculate yourself. But I guess you will again have hard time understand that like usual.

You are making a great effort to not lose your point.

If you really think it's irrelevant who is ahead because they are basically tied, then you wouldn't had the urge to point it. That is the argument.

No wonder MS bought Undead Labs. Considering this doesn't include digital sales, I think that is fairly impressive for State of Decay 2.

Here is the top 20 software sales for May according to NPD:

State of Decay 2
God of War 2018
Detroit: Become Human
Far Cry 5
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze*
Grand Theft Auto V
Hyrule Warriors Definitive Ed*
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Siege
Mario Kart 8*
NBA 2K18
MLB 18: The Show
Call of Duty: WWII
Super Mario Odyssey*
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild*
FIFA 18**
Overwatch**
Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds
Assassin’s Creed: Origins
Monster Hunter: World

Great show for SoD2

Chart time!

More charts available on request.

 

Well, the PS4 clearly enjoyed a small residual effect from GoW, being up 18% YoY. It was the PS4's best May so far. However, considering it was down YoY every month from December to April, I'm not sure if it will still enjoy further YoY increases, especially since it's been stuck at the $300 price point since the Slim came out. The XBO continues to be up YoY (+32% vs. last May, and +29% YTD), even without any big deals, and I'm sure next month will be even bigger thanks to the big E3 sale. Finally, the Switch is essentially flat YoY. It hasn't lost any momentum, but it hasn't gained any, either. We'll see how long it can keep it up at the current price point, especially with the only big marquee title in the second half of the year being Smash.

The thing is X1 had the TOP seller of the month and a big discount, still tied with Switch and was very far from PS4. So I don't think it will be a certainty for X1 to win next month.

I think pokemon go might hurt the franchise. i'm sure most people buying are gonna think its a true mainline pokemon for the core fanbase, when the game is average, and i'm expecting low review scores, it ill kill the hype the pokemon 2019 big time to the people that don't follow games before release.

Except for the fact that The Pokemon Company and Nintendo made it very clear that Let's Go is not Gen 8 and that the true mainline Pokemon game for the core fanbase, the real Gen 8, is in development and planned to release in next year. And if anyone paid even the slightest attention, they would know that.
As for killing hype for Gen 8 in 2019?

Then you need to see zorg post with Nintendo claiming it is a mainline Pokemon.

believe it or not, most people don't, especially in huge franchises.

They absolutely do.

I don't need to check reviews to buy from ND and SSM.

LOL saw this just after I made my post about software sales, very curious about State of Decay. Since it is the worst selling big exclusive of the month. 

 

Also the only way to celebrate Donkey Kong getting second place LOL.

Lol this did not age well over the day

That is a very big case of "the last smiling is smiling better" or whoever you translate it to english version of the last standing.

remember to switch back again when you realise MS put free to play games behind Gold

Indeed. I might switch back anyways as i'm all into the "SJW" games Sony releases.

Unfortunately there have been some cuckos complaining about promotion of TLOU director, and that he panders to SJW and that he forced Ellie being gay and endorse Sarkosian (while he only said that her channel made him aware of a useful thing to think when designing a char, thinking what would change if gender or color was different and if he choosing default white male was better or not for the game).

So Matt said that Dark Souls Remaster took 21st place, I really wonder where it could of place had the Switch version not been delayed?

probably 21st.
