PS4 Slim bundle with UC4 should be at $249 now and not at $299

It's sold out anyhow. I wonder if Sony is going to roll with the slim offers they have now (only the 1tb without a game) until the COD bundle releases for $299. Their sales are likely going to be lower in September and October than I thought they would be. SCEA always has a strange strategy, considering the constant bombardment of bundles that release in Europe. They seem to only like to release one bundle at a time, and they tend not to strike when the iron is hot. The Xbox One S might even pull close for a month or two, considering it has a $249 Madden bundle that even came with a free game during Destiny week. I don't understand why SCEA is so much less agressive than Sony Europe, considering the US is a far more competitive market. 

Oh yes thank you the information.

Fifa on the Switch is doing pretty well WW. It was the 2nd highest SKU for a few days on the US. It's also pretty high/decent in the EU countries, tho it's nowhere to be seen in the UK.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Seriously though? Are people not impressed with how well Odyssey is doing. It has been stable at #3 and it is still over a month away and already #16 for the year. This game is going to be huge

FIFA switch has been unavailable for few days on Amazon UK which explain why it is not in the top100. It was doing pretty good before that...

Same thing for Xenoblade 2 on Amazon France.

i wonder if strong preorder numbers will make up for a miserable 10 months of sales. I'm sure MS will be vocal regardless and pretend the last 10 months didn't happen

and lol about Xbox winning the next gen because X sells a few million

and Mario is doing really well, not surprising

I think best case scenario, X helps it stay flat with last year.  So, ~8M.  At that point, sales will still only be ~36M for XBO.  And with little but the boast of power to push XBO sales, next year we will see it start to slide, again.  Especially since next year I fully expect to start hearing more concrete rumors about the PS5, with a possible release in 2019.  What mystic the X has will be gone.  Personally, I don't see the XBO getting over 50M when all is said and done.

It's been a bad year for Xbox so far. Like u said Scorpio is going to bring Xbox to slightly down for the year/flat. Also the one to my knowledge has basically been 249 all year. If next year is down for the year than that's really really bad. 2017 only has halo wars2, forza and cuphead, pubg might half count. Most would agree this has been the worst year for exclusives for the one. In my opinion it's the worst year for any Xbox console. Next year is different though(mostly cause the delays). Crackdown, SOD2, sea of theives, ori 2, halo 6, forza horizon 4. Lol 2017 the worst year for the one, 2018 the best. Anyway next year with much more games, full year of Scorpio and games that 'look best' on it, most likely a $199 Xbox for the majority of the year. 2018 should be better than 17 and if it isn't than like I said very bad and ms should basically pull out of the gen and start getting ready for next gen.



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

And people said I was silly when I said "Super Mario 3D World" was a step down from Galaxy I & II.

a good mario game early in the gen is going to help Switch alot.

Not unusual considering how well-known he is in the video game world. Damn shame Sonic could not have been built up to a similar extent.

The problem is look at Sony's 2018.

Shadow of the colossus
Days Gone
God of War
Marvel's Spiderman
Death Stranding
Detroit: Become Human
Yakuza 6: The Song of Life
Yakuza: Kiwami 2
Shenmue III
Ni No Kuni II
Monster Hunter World
Dissidia Final Fantasy NT
Secret of Mana
The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia
Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Hacker’s Memory
Atelier Lydie & Suelle: The Alchemists and the Mysterious Paintings
Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age
Left Alive
The Inpatient
