It isnt as cut and dry as it looks. You know all those pre-order sales Xbox One X, in august and september?

third place in august: https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/2017-08/videogames/ref=zg_bsar_videogames_pg_3?ie=UTF8&pg=1

21st in september: https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/2017-09/videogames/ref=zg_bsar_videogames_pg_3?ie=UTF8&pg=1#2

All these pre-order will add up with november sales for this month. NPD doesnt include any of the pre-order in the month they were pre-ordered, but rather the month they were released. X1X august pre-orders werent counted for the month of august, but for the month of november.

Do you think i didn't already knew this? I know pre orders are a thing lol, i already accounted all of this, it just sold better than what i expected, that's it.

Switch will still sell gangbusters, but my only point was that switch isn't leading the month when you factor in all of this.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

Is the Odyssey bundle not gonna get restocked? I find the pretty weird.



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.

My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Good job ! I totally forgot I was doing this... I think you forgot Special Edition at least in France and UK.



I made this top 20 chart because it's interesting to see that Nintendo has 6 games in the top 20 and Sony only 2, but 6 cards (probably Sony fans are most digital oriented). Microsoft is the one behind.

This is just a question so please do not kill me lol.....but

Is the Switch really having the stock issues still? I mean for like the past 2 weeks now I have seen them readily available in store at 3 different Targets, 2 Walmarts and 1 Gamestop......and I have been in the Gamestop multiple times along with 1 of the target stores and 1 Walmart store.....Heck 4 of my coworkers have got them recently and 1 got 2 for her 2 boys.

So is it online that the stock is an issue? Because in store they have been easy to find at least for me here in the US.....I know my personal experience is not definite proof but I could swear I have seen many others saying the game thing.

Again people this is just a question don't kill me. I was just really curious that's all. because It is selling a TON right now and I thought that was due to it being readily available along with the release of SMO.

Yes but they're artificial stock issues.

I see what you did there lol.....making jokes

Funny but let's not perpetuate that nonsense.

On a serious note, stock issues are mostly resolved in most areas of the world.  In the west, the stock issues began to resolve in the last 10 days of September.  Amazon took longer to get resolved for unknown reasons.  Could be Amazon is very easy for scalpers to buy large numbers through.  Could be Amazon took longer to up their orders or Nintendo had them lower on the priority list.  And also remember Amazon is huge but doesn't make up as big of a part of the games market as people think.

The only area where stock issues persist is Japan, but that's more crushing demand than stock issues at this point it seems.  

Ok so the stock issues are coming to head pretty much just leaving Japan.....It had just seemed like they were so readily available so I was just wondering if it was just around me or most places as well.

It's primarily an Amazon only issue.

Ok that makes sense....
