The crossplay stuff may have had some impact. At least that is what I think Matt is implying.

Aw, disappointed he didn't run down the classic video game charts this month.

I take it that you haven't looked at our NPD predicting thread for the past 5 weeks?

You seem to be forgetting RDR2.
What will most likely be the biggest game of the year.

Nah, I havent. Infact I'm somewhat out of the loop on things. So this may very well be a shot in the dark.
Bet with Intrinsic:
The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

Switch will take August.
PS4 will take September (Spiderman).
PS4 will take Oktober (RDR2 marketing)
Nov + December? toss up months, likely be close between all 3.
Mario party and Forza wont matter at all compaired to RDR2.

Taking this back since it hasn't been confirmed that PS4 sold more units than X1/Switch yet. It seems all the percentages in the NPD report were based on money sales rather than units which makes it pretty much impossible to determine which console (other than the NES Classic) sold the most units. So until there is leaked info or Matt voluntarily provides more, I'd say June is a wash.
Mid-Gen refreshes have been a huge success IMO. XBox One being double this year and on track for its best year ever is mainly due to XBox One X.
PS4 not seeing the usual decline you would expect to see in a system in year 5 IMO also points to PS4 Pro helping offset usual hardware fatigue.
People who said this idea wouldn't work, would splinter the market, wouldn't sell, etc. were wrong.
