It's short for Laboratory. And I guess DIY things are related to labs in a way?

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.

Eh, there's still no need for doom-and-gloom over a few lost Amazon sales. They are smart to continue making money. If the PS4 wasn't selling as intended, they'd do something about it. That's how business works.

Meanwhile the limited edition Monster Hunter bundle is already sold out. They probably made at least 100K of them, maybe more. Which means January is pretty much PS4's month. People jump to conclusions based of Amazon charts.

And as i mentioned before, 3rd party sellers are selling the standard model. We won't really know how it's performing for awhile on Amazon. They have it in stock, but people aren't going to search for it. SW bundle nobody really wants. Sony needs a WW2 bundle.

I highly doubt that limited edition monster Hunter bundle had 100k units.

Not really sure why people keep trying to argue against Amazon.

It has been by far the vest predictive NPD tool by far even it isn't alway 100% right.

Switch is winning January.

There is a reason why these Amazon threads continues and gets lots of posts. And that is the main reason.

The bigger reason is because it's more competitive now with Switch. When ps4 was dominating almost every month these threads became very quiet. I definitely lost interest anyway.

Not arguing against it. It's when deals are available elsewhere and not Amazon that could possibly make it not accurate for the month. That's how i've always looked at it anyway.

As much as I want Nintendo to succeed... Labo doing so well currently is because of scalpers or core Nintendo fans pre ordering it. While it may be a hit with kids, children aren’t usually ones to preorder something say one. Most of the YouTube video’s views are likely from gamers, too.
