TBD
(Note: This entry will be updated at the start of each month, except during November & December where it will also be updated weekly until New Year's.) TBD
(Note: Covers all weeks in the NPD sales period for the month. March, June, Sept., & Dec., are 5-week months for NPD purposes; all other months are 4 weeks.) Week 6 (Feb. 5 - 11) Week 7 (Feb. 12 - 18) Week 8 (Feb. 19 - 25) TBD Week 9 (Feb. 26 - March 4) TBD

I think you have your weeks ahead by 1

Tag. Bayonetta 2 above both Switch units again 👌
Tagging Hopefully this month holds some nice bargains for us gamers worldwide, and not just Amazon. In the U.S. the tax returns this month should give a little boost to sales, as well as the new games releasing. E3 is still a ways away. MARK YOUR CALENDAR JUNE 12-14, 2018 LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA Hope that PS4 gets a price cut soon and I'm hoping they choose to do it before E3. Holding out all the way June just to give everyone a SRP sticker shock is totally overkill and would create havoc to supply/demand/shipping. Doubt I'll see the $199.oo PS4 again until the Christmas holiday shopping season. Until then they can surely take $10 off as a gesture of appeasing consumer interest.

January was a 5-week month. The National Retail Federation, whose calendar is used by NPD, periodically has a "53-week year," basically something like a "fiscal leap year" to account for a calendar year being not exactly 52 weeks (a standard year is 52 weeks and one day; a leap year is 52 weeks and two days). Normally the "4-4-5" calendar divides the fiscal year up into 52 weeks, with March, June, September, and December being 5-week months and all the others being 4-week months. But when they decide that a 53-week year is needed, the NRF will make the January sales period a 5-week month. Previous 5-week January periods were in 1996, 2001, 2007, and 2013, so they do this once every 5 to 7 years as needed.
