Forums - Sales Discussion - Amazon US Monthly bestsellers tracking thread November - Updated 29/11 - GTAV bundle in at 17

Arkaign on 22 November 2014

Well to be fair, it's what we have to talk about in the absence of new data for the monthly tally.

I don't think anyone thinks that magically WiiU will win November on the back of SSBU, but it should be their best month in a long long time regardless, and the X1's bundle successes are also a welcome change for them even if it has dissipated quite a bit.

#1 pokemin ds

#3 wii bundle!!!!
#4 pokemon ds
then 5 & 6 are PSN cards
#7 ps4 and #8 psn card
#14 xbox dropping down a lot now

Nintendo is always strong on Amazon

Still not update on monthly and weekly chart...
PS4 still ahead of XB1. So it was definitely the scam + real sales that cause the bump. And the 349 promo yesterday.

How do you get to the weekly and monthly charts?  I only ever seem to get the hourly or yearly ones.

Put "-xx" behind 2014 for monthly
Put "-xx-yy" behind 2014 for weekly
Eg: "2014-11-17" for the GTAV release week

Since it's been 8 days of no updates all we can do is follow the hourly. I kept an eye on it the past day. Nintendo impressively taking the top 3 spots and now the Wii U SSB bundle is #5. Very impressive!

PS4 very good at #7 and looking at what's above it you can't expect it to be any higher atm.

X1 falling to #13. The momentum has clearly swung the past few days.

Destiny dropped way down to #54 and the next X1 SKU is #61. Can't wait for the BF bundles to come and hopefully we get a November update in the next few days and a week ending 17th update!


There is no Smash Bros+ Wii U bundle on amazon. The bundle you're talking about is the SSBU+GC controller bundle.

Here, this is what you're talking about. If you only read the name then it's easy to take it as an actual Wii U bundle, but it's not:

Pretty much this. 

It could be selling to primarily Wii U owners right now for all we know.

I'd actually assume it's primarily selling to a) Wii U owners and b) hardcore Nintendo fans that for som reason haven't gotten a Wii U yet.

Because I'd imagine that most that care about having the GC controller for Smash are Nintendo fans.

It's just me or the hourly chart is not getting updated as well?


I think I read somewhere that it updates 35 mins past the hour, so if that's true then it should update in 7 mins.

Your link is hourly..  This is about monthly sales..          not hourly..

in case you don't know they haven't updated the monthly since 8 days at least and the weekly since week ending 10th. Not much else to discuss apart from hourly and it's been doing well hourly for days. Go Ninty!

So as expected Nintendo software is selling a lot but it's not moving consoles?!

Not sure about now but the SSB Wii U bundle has been above the PS4 the last 2 days. It's moving some consoles. 

Sorry it appears that's the controller plus SSB bundle. you are right.
