It was showing until some time ago, really, why did they changed it? Really "strange".

Yeah, it's not as if they didn't have a pic they could use and have been waiting. It was already there and was being used. Why would you remove something from a product that helped sell the product, especially when it doesn't effect your profits in the least.



 

The PS5 Exists.

No, what I said is correct. The arrows are a function of the Movers and Shakers list. Just watch that list and compare it to the arrows on the Bestsellers list.  

Arrows track position change from the same hour a day ago and are can be red if it goes up in the hourly or green if it goes down.

Just compare the hourly bestsellers list to the Movers and Shakers list until it clicks for you :). Please let me know if that makes sense for you. If not I will draft a proof for you


How do you know exactly how it works and that someone else is wrong? Just curious.

I have been watching the lists for over a year. Eventually you pick up on these things. But since I told you all you have to do is watch both lists for 24 hours to see if I am right (I am seriously trying to save you some time lol.)

 

There is no grand mystery to it... what I described is exactly how it works :)

Love seeing the $100 psn card and yearly ps plus card up so high with the other 3. Sony making bank on digital sales compared to ms.


I've always wondered this myself too. Why is it that Sony prepaid cards are doing so well? The option to pay with a credit card online is available to both systems. 

Do you think this has anything to do with people not wanting to attach a credit card to their accounts for fear of another hacking incident? I refer to the 2011 incident, and less about more current events that seemed to target employees this time.

No, it just further illustrates which console is on top.  Most of last gen those slots were taken up by Xbox Live cards.

No offence but i thought you had some definitive proof, not your observation. I think what, thismeintiel, said makes more sense. That's the way i always looked at it. Nobody really knows of course but that's the easiest and most logical explanation. I'll try watching the M&S list to see any similarities

PS4 steady at 8

X1 seems to be pretty steady at 12-14

Not very exciting right now

Cosmic is right. If you want proof, take this: Unless the PS4 falls to number 9, the red arrow will dissapear soon.

Also, guys, on Amazon, it's not called hourly bestsellers, that's just what we call it. On Amazon, it's simply called "Amazon bestsellers" and described as "Our most popular products based on sales. Updated hourly."

The arrows are based on rankings from 24 hours earlier. They have nothing to do with sales in correlation to last hour. Just look at the PSN cards, do you think all three of them sell exactly the same every hour?

And pay attention to te PS4, unless it falls to number 9, the red arrow will dissapear soon. How do I know this? Well, either I'm a psycic, or the way I described above is how the list works

Majora's mask seems to be doing quite well, as a whole, the french amazon is even listing the speila edition n3ds as 1st.



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

Yep, it's gone. Now it's on the X1 which dropped to #15.
