We shall see about Xenoblade but I'm expecting a release not sooner than october.

"Any release post august/september is holidays, thats when releases start ramping up, it's not just a 4 week window."

no. and november + december makes it 8 weeks.

Do you follow release schedules? The bulk of the games come out between september and november. December almost never has a major release.

Couldn't I flip that and say sony only cares for the first few months of the year. The Order-Feb, Bloobourne-March........Uncharted 4-Q1/Q2 2016. That could be well over 1 year gap.

There is more thn that between the time gap, but keep believing there isn't.

Nintendo definitely does not only care about the holidays. Last year, it released Donkey Kong and Mario Kart 8. Mario Party 10 just released a few weeks ago.

Microsoft is another story...
