You'll see how little that means.    The delay is real.

4 and 21 are not sales for the mounth, no money is taken until release.



Ps4 overtaken the xbox one...august will be a slim win for ps4.

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...


if i remeber correctly, the 1tb edition was also never very high in the chart until it was available... (just for the frist few days and intital preorder, but fall off hard after)

You don't count preorders during the months they're being sold, and then when the game releases you have to take preorders into consideration. In fact they can have a negative impact on sales. If the preorders easily outsell the options for the month it can lead to much lower than expected sales for the month. It's the only time a little bit of thinking is necesary when using Amazon to predict the winner for the month. Neither the PS4 Destiny bundle or the XB1 Halo 5 bundle will have any baring on sales this month.



 

The PS5 Exists. 


Surprised to see Halo 5 bundle down at #11 already, it is dropping far faster than the Destiny bundle last year, which was in the top 5 for a while, and then the top 10. I think they made a mistake making it a 1TB version at $499, it should have been the regular console at $399 or $450 at most.



White Destiny bundle for PS4 has sold 300k in September 2014. ( 56% of the total PS4 sales = 538k )
The bundle track 4 weeks.
The XBO bundle with Halo 5 will track only one week.

Here my guess for October:
XB1: 400,000
Halo bundle: 25% ( so, 100k )
Halo 5: 2,100,000

For another comparation, Advanced Warfare bundle ( with the game at 1.46 million ) has sold 200k in 4 weeks (including Black Friday).

Halo 5 will sell a lot of console, but i believe many people will buy another SKUs of XBO, most likely some SKUs at 399$, not 499$. If MS will sell this bundle at 300 / 350 $ during Black Friday, that's going to be MASSIVE.
