this makes me pretty happy to hear that Xenoblade 3D might be selling decently.

"One game worth talking about that didn’t make the above list is Xenoblade Chronicles 3D. Nintendo revealed that it was the fifth best-selling game if you do not combine sales for platforms. Xenoblade only came out for the 3DS, so it’s at a disadvantage when compared to releases that are available across a huge range of different devices."

Wow congrats to the XBO. Competition is always great and hopefully this will show Sony that the US is still very winnable for Microsoft.

Could the wii U beat the PS4 also, because of the Splatoon hype?

LET ME SEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS4: Batman bundle in June -------> super bad sales in May

WU: Splatoon in May ---------> maybe a boost of sales

Ok, unlucky, VERY UNLUCKY, but not impossible!

Not sure Splatoon will have that big of an effect. But Wii U should do well for at least the week it launches.

Wow, surprise win for XBO! Congrats!

Also, I can't recall, but was Smash in the Top 10 for last month's NPD? Great to hear that Xenoblade 3D is doing well.
