Damn Switch software is killing it.

A little bit late, but if I did not mess up, these are the possible ranges for the August results. Got June and July somewhere as well.

[NSW] 238K - 262K
[PS4] 178K - approx. 200K (not up YoY, otherwise Switch would be the upper bound)
[XB1] 98K - 102K

Thanks a lot. It's highly appreciated :)

Thank you. Could you share June and July when you get the chance?



Its amazing that sales data is so hidden in the gaming industry. This to me is proof that sales numbers are being used for marketing purposes. This is why certain "companies" slash the prices of certain games to "dollar store" prices and force bundle games to "juice" the numbers. Kudos to NPD for noticing that shady practice and only counting REVENUE.

Again: I could be wrong with my method somehow/somewhere, but I'm like 90-95% sure that the results should be in those ranges:

June:

[NSW] 342K - 352K
[PS4] 188K - 229K (probably above 200K, below are some edge cases)
[XB1] 158K - 165K

July:

[NSW] 247K - 258K
[PS4] 176K - 184K
[XB1] 103K - 109K

August:

[NSW] 238K - 262K
[PS4] 178K - 200K (approx.)
[XB1] 98K - 102K

Last three months:

[NSW] 827K - 872K (up 5 - 10% YoY; last year NSW also had strong sales after E3)
[PS4] 542K - 613K (down 19 - 29% YoY; so a better performance than in April and May where it had a tough YoY comparison due to GoW)
[XB1] 359K - 376K (down 34 - 37% YoY; let's see if they got something up their sleeve for the rest of the year)

O frag! Nintendo's really killing it in June!

Third month in a row and no numbers. Is there even a point in these threads anymore?

The trends and the charts are still useful. They are going to get discussed somewhere so might as well do it here.

I agree that the US needs a real sales tracker. How Famitsu and Media Create are able to do that for free is what I'd be interesting in knowing.

Awesome, thanks for the numbers
