X1 bundles dropping, Halo affect over?

What's the reason for the Kinect spike? Bestbuy's charts show the same thing.

Monthly updated. Halo 5 bundle on top as expected do to no TLoU bundle. But The UC bundle is right behind it. The final update should show it ahead for the month. October will be real close. No more than 60K gap between the two whoever wins i think. PS4 has this month though from the looks of it.

Yep, which is why I said Sony just threw the month away when TLOUR bundle went out of stock. BUT, when they added extra incentives in the Nathan Drake bundle I wondered if it could eventually take the number one spot which is why I'm still sticking with the PS4.



 

The PS5 Exists.

Cod up ten places to #51 on the monthlies, should have a strong finish to the month with release less than a fortnight away.

The NDC bundle is higher up because of the TLOU bundle shortage. TLOU being out of stock will not affect sales that much when you also consider Amazon only accounts for 5% of sales.

Which is what i've been saying. Yeah Halo bundle overtook it, but when you realise it's available at other stores sales won't be affected at all. The Uncharted bundle is comfortably picking up its sales anyway.

#46 PS4 Destiny Bundle
#51 PS4 Black Ops Bundle

I'm a little surprised at the closeness of the Halo and NDC bundles. I was expecting Halo Bundle to jump up a bit higher and NDC bundle not to jump up quite so high until the next monthly update. Though I see Amazon has the week 3 chart up now so I wonder if the monthly update has included week 3, in which case the monthly chart is close to what I expected, though both NDC and Halo 5 are lower in the chart than I thought they would be after 3 weeks.

If Halo 5 ends up within a few places of NDC in the final monthly rankings then the 2 months of pre-orders should still put it ahead.
