Thanks bro.

 

Madden 15 bundle is at #50, so, if the Madden 16 bundle not rise the chartz, we can expect a very bad performance for Madden 16 bundle...

You missed my posts that could explain this odd situation:

If the objects ranked higher than PS4 have a big turnover (if they stay not long in the top 100) but at the same time sell more than PS4 sell in the whole month then there could be 200 objects that sold better overall during the whole month than the PS4 "fools edition".

But this month is only 9 days old and for those 9 days the PS4 has been at around 50 and the XB1 1TB bundle as been below that. How can the PS4 fools edition sell less and be above the XB1 1TB ALL this month?


Are you 100% sure the XB1 1TB bundle has being selling less during each hours of those 9 days? Apparently Amazon is now sold out with this model, meaning, it has sold very well before.

Also, for another comparation 2015 VS 2014:

#6 PS4 white + Destiny
#21 PS4 LE + Destiny TTK

Yup... PS4 is not even close to sell 500k in September. ETHOMAZ!!!!!!!! :p :p :p

I can only recall one time when the PS4 was below the XB1 1TB version but every other time I've looked it's been well above. I'd call that ALL month myself but to be accurate 8 out of 9 days. I can understand your theory but I don't think it holds up.

Not sure why you keep mentioning it, not one person believes PS4 will sell 500k+ this month, unless there is a price cut at the beginning of the month.

People keep trying to explain it away, but it is VERY obvious there is something wrong with how Amazon applies the standalone PS4 SKU numbers.  And why is it even showing up in the DVD/Bluray player list at all?  globalisateur's theory is thrown out the window when looking at prior months.  Last month, the PS4 standalone was ahead of the Wii U most, if not all, the time, yet only the Wii U made it into the monthly bestsellers.  There's no way something could surge ahead to make the PS4 drop out of the Top 100, but not the Wii U.

PS4 Fools edition at #100 in the monthly?

Get outa here. What the hell are Amazon doing this for?


Hehe. Apparently the DVD player theory didn't pan out?


Or possibly it was in the DVD section for half the numbers and gaming section for the other half.

Now is starting to be scary... where the fuck are Madden and Gears bundle? I mean... it's August...

#236 XBO Madden
#1,202 XBO Gears: Ultimate

I'm not THAT surprised about Gears ( i knew it was not going to be a sistem seller, even if i expect way better), but Madden bundle is doing really bad...

I've always thought that Madden as well as Fifa are bundles that will generally do more sales from people walking into actual stores rather than online pre-orders as there not really games poeple will be waiting for to hump to the next gen, They could also peak in the holidays when poeple start buying gifts. 

Gears Ultimate does seem low down considering its 3 weeks away but considering the price of MCC and Gears if you want a Xbox One curently you might as well just grab the MCC edition still as there is no extra value in waiting for the new Gears bundle. Maybe after launch it will become the standrad go-to 500GB bunle.
