The Kinectless sku was on top 20 (and 10) for a few weeks at the time of around E3, then Madden bundle jumped there for a few day.

I'm pretty sure it was never that high. It didn't make into the top 100 until a couple days before it launched and it started at #86

I don't know about the kinectless bundle, but the Madden bundle did get into the top 20 for a couple days, pretty sure it's been out of stock on Amazon for a while now.

Yeah i forgot about the Madden bundle, but i'm sure the kinect-less sku was never in the top 20 until now.

xb1 destiny will be shown ahead of ps4 destiny for September NPD (because of the white ps4 bundle)



It's limited availability, and not marketed that much. It's also competing with upcoming Sunset Overdrive & COD bundles.  I'd say it'll be a small bump.

Dosen´t NPD count bundle?

And does it count Digital Download codes?

It probably won't do too much. The One has been bundled with free games in the past, but it never boosted it above the PS4. Not even the Titanfall Bundle did. So, it will help some, but it will mostly be due to the Holidays that the One will start to rise.


should do more than TF bundle its $399 with madden and another game of your choice (most will get destiny with it) thats the best deal to date

dont think it will beat ps4 for that week since they have there bundle and the xb1 deal ends next week so it might not win the month (US) either

I don't know about more, but it may do about the same.  So, ~311K for Sept NPD would be the case.  Of course, I think most of that will be from the holidays starting to ramp up, not the bundle. 

And Titanfall had a crap load of hype around it.  Madden isn't exactly a Xbox system seller.  And I don't think Madden plus a game is going to sway many people from getting the PS4+Destiny.  The fact that this deal has to be made, while Sony will get a CRAZY boost from taking only $10 off, speaks volumes about the demand the One continues to see.  Or not see may be the right wording.  I mean this is basically a Black Friday Bundle for Sept.



I'm guessing none. Meaning it will not make more people buy the console with Destiny than already decided to do so before the offer. Either way it will be impossible to tell with the general Destiny bump.
