3 - XBO : 52.0 points (+14.1) ; Month Average : 52.7 points/day ; 0.13 (+0.01)


Ok NS point reduction linked to gamestop promotional SKUs was done. As expected the change was not huge but still significant.
XBO will be undertracked this month most likely as usual when it is too low on the charts.
The new formula works well to put PS4 and XBO neck to neck last November as well (though the order would have been wrong nonetheless).

It is pretty clear that Switch conquered the US by now. PS4 doesn't even get close anymore. Though that could still change with a pricecut from Sony - although Nintendo can do the exact same, and probably will sometime this year. I mean, a console without a pricecut during it's first 3 years would be something radically new.

I don't think either of them is gonna make a price cut this year. They both have shown that they are in for maximum profits this time around.

Hell, there might be a price INCREASE in the U.S. with Trump's dumb trade war.

Nintendo have already more earned than MS in gaming business.

Doubt it.

I expect Nintendo to win most months by a good margin until next gen.

I would even say the next 2 years, the next gen needs to build up some momentum first while the Switch is probably around it's peak.

Idk cause Nintendo consoles usually burn out sales wise quicker than other consoles in the US. By 2021 I could see Switch sales starting to drop.
