How does this compare to Spider-Man? Anyone have numbers for Spider-Man first week in UK?

curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
My Bet With curl-6

That 2:1 split for PS4 to XBO is really something. I say this because I don't believe the actually console spit it that high in the favor of PS4 in the UK.

Well it was to be expected due to the marketing and bundle (yes, UK charts count games in bundles).

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.

Hmm.... okay so then you are saying that this thing was a major system seller for the Pro Bundle. Possibly 100k or more. That wold make more sense:

200k on Xbox One

300k PS4

100k bundle

1.5:1 makes a lot more sense than 2:1.

Total sales wise, including bundles, this was a an absolute blowout in favor of the PS4. It also makes sense why Microsoft is doing the $100 off bundles at Gamestop.

That sounds about right. The bundle was a smart move for Sony.
