HARDWARE:
#04 PSVR Launch Bundle (down 1)
#11 PS4 Black Ops 3 Bundle (up 2)
#55 XB1 Gears Bundle (down 3)
#282 XB1 Quantum Break Bundle (down 2)

SOFTWARE:
#09 PS4 No Man's Sky LE (same)
#22 PS4 MLB The Show
#29 PS4 MLB The Show MPV Edition
#36 PS4 Uncharted: A Thief's End (down 1)
#54 PS4 Ratchet And Clank (up 1)
#67 XB1 Quantum Break (down 10)
#85 WiiU Starfox Zero (same)

 I do not expected Ratchet & Clank, being ahead of Quantum Break, but the game is for 40US$, so it might have helped.

I'VE been saying since February NPD that I think R & C would outsell Quantum Break in April.Still stand by that.

The official $50 price cut doesn't seem to be doing anything to budge the XBO on Amazon. NPD is going to be interesting to watch. If the XBO isn't at least up a little bit from last year, then there's a problem. For reference, here's the weekly averages for the XBO each month so far (not including Nov. & Dec.):

I Think that March will be up because of The Division.

Just a question, but where is The Division's Bundle ?, the game was a Huge Sucess, and the Bundle did not charted in the top 100 Recentrly ?.

I think it charted for a couple of days but then just slipped out of the top 100.

Having it for 400US$ while you also have a Bundle for a Brand New game for just 300US$, also don't help The Division's Bundle.

I remember thinking that at the time. We really do need to allow ourselves just to tinker with the notion MS don't want the console to succeed.

The Developers get something when Each Bundle is sold ?, because really makes no sense to make a Third Party Deal, and sell other Bundle, with a Exclusive game 100$ Cheaper, i think that The Division, should be the Cheapest, and Quantum Break, the one for 400US$, The Division, could move much more Hardware than Quantum Break, if was the Cheapest.

I Hope they don't mess up with Doom's Marketing.

To be honest I don't think they care any more. I think they'd be quite happy to concentrate all their efforts on Windows and just see XB1 as another method of delivering it to consumers. It means that if their PC side rises and their console business declines they still have a good figure to offer their shareholders.

I Wonder how Japanese games will chart on Amazon, now they are allowing you to Import games from Japan, and Japanese games are selling more on the West, also, Western games are selling more on Japan, will be interesting to see if Star Ocean 5, Persona 5, and i think that Dragon Quest Builders, also was confirmed for the West was not ?, those Minor Japanese games will be interesting to see in the Ranking of Amazon.

 

I Also think that Dragon Quest, had the same Potential as Final Fantasy, in the West, but they aways lock the Titles for Japan Only, this Franchise is pratically a Japan Exclusive, and sold 60+ Millions of units, could be at Final Fantasy's Level if Enix, was like Square Soft, back in the 80s, and the 90s.
