This may affect NPD enough to make the gap very small between PS4 and X1...

Let's see to what heights UC4 will fly to.

The uncharted series isnt really that huge here in the US. In october the remaster sold less than 300k when Sony has been saying that most PS4 owners havent played an uncharted. I expect the game to sell like previous installments in the series. Also does anyone know when NPD is for January?

Uncharted 3 helped the PS3 go up 70% YoY and it sold 700k in the same month that had releases like CODMW3, BF3, and Skyrim.

TLOU has since shown big numbers, so I think it is much harder to predict Uncharted 4.

I expect low hardware for April, because it is April. But Uncharted 4 SW might surprise.

9 hours since last update:

#18 PS4 Black Ops 3 Bundle (down 1)
#27 PS4 Uncharted 4 LE Bundle (down 2)
#40 XB1 Gears Bundle (up 2)
#63 N3DS Black (up 2)
#87 N3DSXL Fire Emblem Fate Bundle (up 7)
#92 PS4 Fool's Edition (down 8)

Sony could ride the UC4 bundle all the way to Christmas and I think they will.

Yeah but the thing is that the ps4 will probably have 5 million less consoles in the US by the time uc4 comes out compared to uc3, and uc3 came out during a holiday month so it got a bit of a extra sales. Hopefully that the heavy bundleing of the collection could introduce some new fans yo the series.

Problem with that is The Last of Us did almost 1m in a non holiday month. Install base is largely irrelevant, its more hype and FW to legs ratio.

They should just put amiibos in the toys section instead

 

This, so much this!!! 

Amiibos, Skylanders and every other toy gimmick dont belong to the Video Game section.

Something tells me they're not gong to cater to a thread on VGC that follows Amazon sales.

The last of us wasnt an uncharted game it was just a new ip that ended up doing well.
