I suspect that the PS4 will break some sales records for december.

Really thought they would have went with $249 sooner, but they did it. Now for $229 on Boxing Day.

As if those prices will ever appear in Canada...



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

Ya I wish eh...

I stick with American pricing. Seems like non American pricing will most certainly get you corrected more often than not. I could use Canadian but then I'd have to mention American as well. Almost as bad as the metric system.

Starwars Movie releaseing + Star Wars Battlefront II Bundle for 249$ = Sony Wins December NPD.

OG PS4 or Pro?

PS4slim 1tb + bundled game.

Last year they did almost 1.6 million in December npd with the new pro and a 249$ uncharted bundles. I think a 249$ Battlefront bundle this year is much less appealing. Especially when coming off that 199$ BF price(with 50$ gift card at GameStop).

I think about 1.2 million for December, whether or not it's enough to take the month I'm not sure.



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.

Well, this price was common during the year, the news is only the bundle and perhaps allowing for stores to do their own 199 promos

Eh...I'll pass.

 

Already got a OG PS4.

249 for the Pro would be a real steal and killer.
