Thanks for keeping it updated, Poklane.

HARDWARE
#32 XB1s-2tb Gears Bundle (up 1)
#35 PS4 Pro (up 1)*
#42 PS4s UC4 Bundle (same)
#55 PS4 Fool's Edition (down 2)
#66 PS4 UC4 Bundle (down 1)
#70 N3DSXL Galaxy (same)
#92 N3DSXL Black (up 2)

Does not affect this month (*)

SOFTWARE (pre-orders only)
#05 XB1 Gears Ultimate (up 7)
#06 3DS Pokemon Moon (up 3)
#07 3DS Pokemon Sun (up 1)
#09 XB1 Gears 4 (up 4)
#13 WiiU Paper Mario Colour Splash (up 4)
#40 PS4 Dragon's Quest Builders (up 27)
#74 PS4 World Of Final Fantasy (down 6)
#98 PSVR Batman (new entry)

PS4: 5 SKUs, 4 in the top 100 / 3 in the top 50 / 0 in the top 20 / 0 in the top 10
XB1: 14 SKUs, 1 in the top 100 / 1 in the top 50 / 0 in the top 20 / 0 in the top 10

It's too early to call by my initial thoughts are that the Gears Bundle is pushing XB1 sales up and preorders of PS4pro are starting to hold the PS4s down. It very much looks like the PS4pro is going to be the defacto SKU for most people going forward. Two weeks of this and it's an easy win for the XB1 but it all depends on how long the Gears bundle can hold its appeal.

Yeah, welcome back GG !

Thanks poklane

May be because it is $150 more expencive?

The only XO bundle at 299 is a very boring Minecraft bundle. It seems revenue wise XBO might have September.

I meanI know it is $150 more expensive but I still thought it would have passed up the PS4s bundle and it has.I don't think the 2TB gears bundle will do huge numbers but I expect with Gears taht teh XB1 will have a very good month this month.

And yeah that MC bundle is super boring....and XB1 will have Sept revenue wise? That is a kind of odd way to put it. How will we even know how much revenue they made for the month of September? Also what even made you say they might have it revenue wise?

NPD works with revenue YoY, not unities sold, nowardays only leaks give us sales numbers. It will be clear when they release their report.

Ahhhhh okay got you. Well I guess we will see if they tookit out or not next week. I don't know though with all the game deals that they had going they had to lose some money on them so I am not even sure if they can even take it with revenue. If we go by Amazong the PS4 took it for hardware but revenue it is anyones guess.

What makes you lean towards the XB1 for taking it revenue wise?

Here in the netherlands the top 10 or top 100's are really showing dropping numbers of PS4 sales in favour of top pre-orders on the PS4 Pro, I expect the same in the US. Forza Horizon sales and Gears Pre orders are seeming to really push xbox sales beyond any level I've seen it in my country so far.

I've added Tombraider just for the last few days. It's not an exclusive but it IS a year since it was on other platforms and it HAS got exclusive PSVR functionality.

The gears bundle just passed the slim and uncharted bundle.

About freaking time! I was like why is it so low  and it will be out next week. I am expecting  some good numbers from MS this month!

It comes out this Friday, on the 7th :) So the next few days should see the bundle at its prime.
