The month started October 5th on Amazon. Ended it's first week in the 30's. You have a bad memory.

No need to get defensive. Everyone knows the bundle is selling. The discussion is simply about if it'll be enough to beat ps4 for this month and how well the bundle has been charting. 

No, your discussion was about me being a fanboy for coming up with facts instead of going off of some distorted memory that the bundle barely broke 100 when the month started.

#62 isn't particularly high and you can't ignore that there have been several PS4 bundles ahead of it regularly until now. It takes a long time for the positions in the dailies/weeklies to have any great effect on the monthlies. Like I said, I could be wrong but it would be interesting to find out wouldn't it?

Edit: I've just checked back a bit more and I think I HAVE mis-remembered how things went this month. I guess I just remembered it being low relatively speaking but didn't remember the actual places.

It's good that you know now. Thanks for the understanding.

Star Wars up a further five places. Sony's advert may be doing work already, and with the new trailer for the film today it may continue to rise. I know I said it earlier in the thread, but preorders must be big already for this thing, and it has another month before it releases.

I wonder if Cod will start to rise and stay higher consistently soon, now it is less than three weeks away from release. Preorders have been decent so far.

It's kind of odd actually because for some reason the ad has been shown in a cut down form which removes the advert for the PS4 console at the end.

That is odd, seems like a waste.

Perhaps if you'd have discussed it rationally instead of assuming I was 'downplaying' (something children do) then this discussion would have been different. Trust me, I'm not that sort of a person. I'm a Sony fan, yes, but I don't try to bend facts to suit myself. I may get facts wrong occasionally but that's just a mistake and isn't by design.

Your little backhanded jabs are getting super dull. Lets just stay with facts from now on. Okay?

You can't stop can you. Downplaying is something children do and I'm no child. Jesus, can we stop now please this sort of thing gives me a headache.

edit: I see you responded to my other edit in the post above. Can't you see from that I'm a reasonable person?

Nintendo be getting rich off of selling you DLCs and small over priced plastic figours....  easy money for them.

I wish they would just do more game developement instead.

 

Not a fan of the Amiibos, but given how succussfull they have been, and how high the profit margins must be on those tiny plastic toys they sell for a fortune,im guessing there here to stay.

Perhaps the NX will be shaped like a giant Amiibo and there will be itsy-bitsy consoles with DLC on them.
