GameStop online is not representative of GameStop retail. Wait for other parties like InfoScout to give out some info.

If that's the case, then wouldn't that same scenario apply to Best Buy, Costco, Target, and Walmart? If so, then they should be treated equally.

Regarding Amazon, however, there is no question.

Yes, the online sites for B&M represent a small percentage of the stores total sales. 



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

Battlefield having a worse launch than Cod's  launch despite the huge drop. People who purchase Cod aren't purchasing any other game, I would give more credit if Battlefield surpassed   Cod's old levels of sales or if it wasn't having such a hard time outselling a franchise in decline.

Well its because of digital. NPD shows that on average games in October had a 30% digital and games that had play first(BF1 had play first) has bigger digital sales. Also EA expected their game sales to reach 30% digital on consoles by year's end. 

Cod will also have digital sales, same for any other game. That play first think will give more digital sales for Battlefield, but it won't reach Cod's level despite decline after decline in sales.

The PS4 will be up  YOY this month. The Xbox One has the Gears bundle which will probably sell less than Halo. Battlefield isn't much better than Fallout 4.

There is no reason for the Xbox One to be up YOY but the PS4 don't.

Both versions of Pokemon now out of stock. Congrats, Amazon. I mean, seriously, Pokemon? That's guaranteed to sell eventually, why start off with a small stock?

A small stock of +10 million xD

Only because is sold out on Amazon doesn't mean is sold out in others stores.

Exactly, I mean pokemon is the kind of product that retailers can buy as much of as they want to from Nintendo. Don't understand why Amazon decided to be so stingy this time around with their command.



Bet with PeH: 

I win if Arms sells over 700 000 units worldwide by the end of 2017.

Bet with WagnerPaiva:

 

I win if Emmanuel Macron wins the french presidential election May 7th 2017.

But even on the Xbox store BF1 has been selling more than IW and has had more players. Also its outsold COD in the UK thus far, and even with digital was up from BF4 in Oct NPD.

PS4 could be up but it depends on how the Pro performed. I think it will be flat or slightly down. Also last month the XB1 sold more than it did Oct 2015 which was Halo 5s launch month.
