Except he doesn't have a XB1, only a ps4. Obv can't be greenburg.

No, he had to buy a PS4, because all the XB1's were sold out. 

Didn't you see his picture?

I think what is almost as interesting as the NDC bundle movement is the fact that the Gears bundle hasn't managed to overtake the regular Star Wars bundle yet.

Also interesting to look at last year's rankings.

Xbox One sold 1.2m, and on Amazon it had #2, #82 & #100.

PS4 sold 820k and placed #11, #31, #48 & #79.

PS4 currently has #5, #15, #22, #24 & 31. Pretty good preorders as well. Also has possibly one more update that would count in November's NPD.

Massive difference between the top few places and what comes after it would seem.

Of course, sorry Insidb your theory breaks down. X1Gates doesn't "own" an X1. Your would think that he would of named himself PS4Hirai.

Holy shit!

For those we can't see it: PS4 Uncharted bundle (physical copy) jumps from #97 to #5...

Entire monthly update using Shadow1980's previous numbers:

#5 PS4 Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection bundle with physical copy (up 92)
#15 PS4 Star Wars Battlefront bundle (no movement)
#19 XB1 Gears of War: Ultimate Edition bundle (up 5)
#22 PS4 Limited Edition Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 bundle (down 3)
#24 PS4 Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection bundle with digital copy (up 3)
#27 XB1 Fallout 4 bundle (up 1)
#31 PS4 Limited Edition Star Wars Battlefront bundle (down 10)
#49 XBO 1TB Holiday bundle (up 15)
XBO Madden bundle drops out of the Top 100

The thing is about being number 1 is that there's no indication of how well it's selling compared to those below, no matter how close. That sales gap (in terms of units sold) nust have been astronomical.

Look at the yearly charts.  In two days the game posted a 71 in the yearlys.   That is unheard of.

PS4 doing nicely at both Amazon and Best Buy, so it may yet be up YoY.

In terms of PS4 revenue per unit we're probably looking at an average sale price this year 20% lower than last year. So unless PS4 unit sales are >20% up on 2014 then revenue from PS4 hardware sales will be down. PS4 software sales should be up because of a bigger install base and more unit sales. So for PS4 at least revenue should be even at least. Xb one though will have tanked revenue-wise. At best Xb one hardware unit sales will be even, but the average sale price this year will be lower, though last year there were a lot more gift card deals on top of the general price cut. But still I think average revenue per box will be down. So flat or lower YoY unit sales and lower average unit price = Xb one revenue substantially down, and possibly Software not able to make up the difference. The NPD report is going to be very interesting from a revenue perspective.

Looks like Wii U up YoY at the same average price per unit, so Wii U may be the only hardware that is up both by revenue and units sold. Nitendo mught be bad at a lot of things, but it is good at maintaining sales without dropping prices.

I was talking about this comparison, but that was a day or so before the monthly update. Now, we have a much clearer picture, even if the final monthly total is few days out. If the PS4 just sits up there, it may very well close in on the top spot.



WOW, is this for real? The brand new physical copy PS4 bundle of Uncharted has hit the Best Sellers of 2015, holy crap. It was only released during black friday. The PS4 must have sold a crap ton.
