The massive dropped of April is strating by now...

PS4 out of the TOP 20 soon, XBO SKUs will be at 75-95, and Wii U out of TOP 100.


did you even look to see why the PS4 fell a few spots?

UC Unity (PS4) 19.99

FarCry (PS4) 29.99

3X Skylanders toys

Its sales could have actually gone up its just other stuff went on sale/became avail. This is why people need to be cautious with amazon because there is not way to tell volume, its is literally all relative.

That said XB1 ACU at 51 and MCC at 62 is not a pretty site. I expected them to intersect in the 30s but MCC refusing to climb while ACU keeps falling.

Yeah, a sudden drop of a few places is expected in the hourlys... I mean lets not get too excited when a few sales jump above it. I wouldnt say the April drop is starting yet, just some deals have jumped in, once those deals are gone, the games will drop again as always.

Basically this, its not pretty. Im kinda looking forwards to seeing PS4 sales and Bloodborne #'s, compaired to XB1's.



Seems that both bundles for the Xbox One are not fairing well. PS4 is getting lower as well. BloodBourne still at 5 and 6 but even those are dropping. Hmmm... FW sales are going to be interesting for sure.

Don't read to much into this.There is a reason why PS4 is down.there is just too much software selling right now(which is a good thing) Doesn't mean PS4 is selling worse than,let say,yesterday.

Bloodborne is down cause ASSCREED had a price cut(20 dollars)

Xone asscreed is suffering both because of the software climbing and the fact that there is two SKUS out in the wild.

Yeah I dont get the sudden suggestion of doom because some things drop in the hourlys...

People see the red arrow and they think it means less sales. All it means is it lost a rank. BB lost 1 rank because the PS4 version of Unity is a steal right now at 19.99. No where else is selling Unity for 19.99 (that I have seen) where as BB is the same price everywhere.

 

XB1 AC Bundle still falling fast, now at 55 with MCC at 63. Think combined they would be in the low 20s, maybe mid 20s but who knows.



psn- tokila

add me, the more the merrier.

The Order now in the top 30. That price cut shows there are plenty of people interested in this game, at the right price. Is the price cut Amazon only or is it across the board.

How is it ACU is 1/3 full price just 6 months after release?

PS4 is hovering in the 12-15 zone. I'm not sure it's a sign of imminent departure from the top 20. If there is a general slow down in video game product buying then everything should drop relatively proportionally and this even though PS4 sales decline it's relative position in the top 100 should remain.

Interesting 2014 vs 2015 monthly comparisons for PS4:

Jan '14 - #3 : Jan '15 - #9
Feb '14 - #3 : Feb '15 - #10
Mar '14 - #1 : Mar '15 - #7 (so far, probably won't go any higher considering what's ahead of it, but maybe FFT0 might drop behind given it has fallen down the list a fair bit now).

Amazon YoY monthly ranking changes don't seem to correlate with YoY sales. In January '15 NPD PS4 was significantly down YoY, but in Feb '15 NPD PS4 was significantly up YoY.

it's still hard to tell for the ps4 considering all the new games charting due to price cut such as far cry 4 and AC unity, there's 2 version of bloodborne charting as well, beside ps4 was top 15 and now it's top 12.

Ah... I understand now. Thank you good sir.

 

Back to the OP, I think we shall see what happens tomorrow come the final day before BloodBornes release. Should crack the top 3 by then.
