Honestly it truly was. Basically the opposite of Japan right now. 

I wonder why hardware sales in Japan are low right now.

Japan is a smaller market and momentum seems to shift towards mobiles more and more

Because they are too busy working.

Well, PS4 may win from time to time... but I'm impressed all 3 were close 1,15 -1 - 0,97 and X1 up YOY is great news.

It nearly almost always wins.  You sound like fox news lol. (PS4 wins the majority of previous months... fox news: 'PS4 may win from time to time' lol)

That was really close to my prediction. Any word on the software list besides the top 3?

We have to keep in check of being to preposterous because we can see what happened to "Switch will always win"...

And of course we can keep verifying that PS4 wasn't really affected by Switch, still we may see a price cut this year to keep it from slowing sales.

Honestly, I disagree with the price cut.  Okay so yes eventually, but not until October.  First now, PS4 will float with GOW and Spiderman.  Speaking of which, one wonders if Sea of Theives gave Xbox a boost.  Sony may be able to hold out until Smash comes out.  And if it comes out holiday, yes they lower the price and ride that wave.

Good sales for everyone! But crazy that sony base model is like 60 dollars more expensive than xbox one and still sells a lot more (Slim models are the main sellers with pro and x adding some sales)

Also I am a little surprised that MLB the show outsold Sea of Thieves on retail, lets see if with digital Sea of Thieves comes in front. I dont think sea of thieves are selling well, only 45k retail in Rares main market in UK, didnt chart Germany top 20, France top 5 or Spain top 5. Looks like most 2m unique users were gamepass with a lot from free 14 trial (all I heard was how everyone will try it on 14 gamepass trial.
