It's looking like PS4 might regain it's position on XB1S before we even get half way through the month. I wonder what kind of hit sales will take next month when the Neo is announced?

It might be that way in the hourlies, but in the monthly rankings the XBO S is at #7 and the PS4 CoD bundle is at #18. If the XBO S sold enough at or right after launch, it could retain the top position, and that's just for sales this month. Don't forget the preorders as well. Also, new XBO S SKUs are arriving later this month.

 will the July's NPD results  be released tomorrow ?

I didn't mean PS4 would win August. Just that after this month things will go back to how they were faster than expected.

I think so.

NPD report comes out tomorrow. We just won't get PR until next week.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

The 500GB slim for $300 will sell a shit ton at the end of the month and probably into the next.

Not really. We won't have the TOP 10 software, but we'll have the winner in term of hardware and the Microsoft / Nintendo / Sony pr.

So we should get hardware numbers tomorrow? Or just "console X won"?

Aqua should be able to post numbers tomorrow.
