Title: Amazon Sales Thread - October 2016
Post by: SWORDF1SH on Oct 01, 2016, 02:03 PM
I'm going to track the US sales throughout the month but feel free to talk about Amazon sales data from any country. Links are below to help you check out all the info.

This month we have the release of PSVR and Gears 4, both should have huge launches. Battlefield 1 should also have a massive launch with the Xbox One getting the official bundle rights.

Why can't you even pre-order the PSVR? Are the pre-orders that big that they stopped taking them. PSVR as been doing pretty good in the UK for a while.

So I have a few questions just for the sake of discussion. How good of a reception Gears 4 will receive and how much will it affect hardware sales? On the PS4 side, how much influence will PSVR have on hardware sales?

I think Gears 4 will score in the low-to-mid 80s and will have some pull on XB1 sales. The fact that Microsoft did not release a Gears collection whose online had major issues will play a significant role.

For PSVR, unless everyone is saying that it's an absolute must have, it will have less of an influence than Gears 4 because of its price. PSVR won't have that great of an influence until it hits mass market pricing and is bundled with the PS4/Pro. And by the time that happens, it needs to maintain consumer interest.

Is there any way to change the formatting on this site? I can't read anything because the profile pics are across the text and when I type in the private messaging it comes out in a vertical line. At least the obscene colour contrast has gone now so that's a step in the right direction.

Are you on mobile or pc? Sounds odd either way.

I'm on PC. I can't see anything Swordf1sh has posted because his profile picture is covering the text. Perhaps there needs to be a size restriction?

That's really odd. I don't have an issue with it. Maybe legend can look into it.

I'm using Firefox. I've tried enlarging and shrinking to see if that had anything to do with it but it makes no difference. I also have the problem of my text typing out vertically when I use private messaging.

On another note: Is there a way of just cutting and pasting the formatting so you don't have to manually bold or italicise previous text?

I want to update the numbers without having to constantly add in the highlights. This is what I get when I just copy and paste:

edit: Forget it. Every time I try to stretch the page it keeps shrinking it back down again. I'll come back in a few weeks to see if things have improved.

Do me a favor and try the site on chrome. Firefox has really degraded over the years. It when from my Web browser to not even thinking about using it anymore.

I don't have any of those problems gribble. It's really strange but can you try another browser to see if it works better.

Do me a favor and try the site on chome. Firefox has really degraded over the years. It when from my Web browser to not even thinking about using it anymore.
This. Firefox isn't that great anymore. Chrome is a lot better.

I'm surprised gears isn't higher on amazon.  It's almost release day and it's still tracking behind both pokemon sku's on the hourly.  

I know pokemon is huge but it's much further from release and gears is meant to be a huge franchise.

People might be waiting for reviews, I know that for me Gears 4 reviews will be interesting to follow because I have a very distinct feeling that the game will be very disappointing to many.

Also one should say that the Pokemon games this year will probably be bigger than they were in the last couple years, I think.

Gribble read PMs for god's sake!

I saw you having issues with the website's dark theme so I switched you to an old light version we used to have, just as a temporary measure. It was "buggy" but should have worked fine for browsing and posting.

I've switched you back to our official theme. I'm not going to work on updating the light theme without us talking first. Maybe I'll just pm you on the chertz

Yeah if you include a plaintext link to either a vgchartz thread or neogaf thread, the forum auto copies the post over.

If you don't want that to happen you can click the "insert link" button.

It isn't perfect but it attempts to bring over the formatting.

Just post the url in your post. After you post, VizionEck fetchs all urls in your post and edits them.

That happens in all browsers. I usually go out of my way to edit the quoted comment to make it look nicer. But yes, it would be nice if I don't need to re-bold and re-italicize.

I'm expecting the Gears bundle to take the lead over the PS4 slim once the game releases. (if it doesn't ... oh boy). Whether it can overtake the PS4 Pro is another question. Then we'll have to wait to see how long it can sustain that lead and if it does, whether Sony think it's worth trying to complete. Any sale lost to the Pro is a sale gained for November so it's not really of any great importance to actually win October.

Gears bundle will and I can see the 500GB Battlefield bundle doing pretty good at the end of the month riding off the momentum of the gears. We could see a few Xbox bundles above the PS4. Gears 1TB, Gears LE 2TB and 500GB Battlefield.

The Gears bundle needs to sustain the lead for at least a week or more. If it falls behind after two or three days then we could get a repeat of Sep. Sony could amass enough sales to compensate for any losses at the end of the month. I honestly think the main problem (not really a problem) is the closer we get to the PS4pro, the more likely people will wait. Some people might even opt to buy the PSVR and forgo buying the Pro in November, which would also cut into PS4 sales.

There are too many factors at the moment and we're not going to get a handle on it until at least week 2.

It's a very odd month and one that is hard to predict. While it's relatively easy to gauge the impact of a big game on console sales, it's a lot harder to work out how PSVR will impact PS4 sales and how PS Pro releasing next month will impact the PS4 Slim sales this month.

Edit: Lol just see your edit. We're on the same page

There's two way of looking at the PSVR in terms of PS4 sales, assuming some people buy both: People might opt for the slim+PSVR for  financial reasons OR they may buy it to go with the Pro for performance reasons. I don't think we'll ever be able to work out which it was regardless of what happens.

Both instances will costs a lot of money to dip into VR, $760 minimum, so I think that although PSVR might shift PS4s there might be some people that will buy a PS4 for VR but without buying PSVR and buy it further down the line. Overall though I don't see PSVR as a big system seller in the short term but will help PS4 sales in the long run.

And on amazon Japan the slim is weathering the famicon onslaught.  It's back up to #2. Ps4 slim and $50 price cut has had a major impact in Japan.  New baseline will be impressive.

Slim seems to be doing pretty good in Japan. I think PS4 might take the crown in Japan until NX releases.

Oh, I think I now know what you're trying to say. Click on "More" and then, "Modify". That brings you to full edit as opposed to quick edit. And then, you can copy/paste the rankings. You won't get the weird gray highlight background as you would when you copy/paste straight from a comment. You also don't need to re-bold or re-italicize.

For your second question, click on your username on the top and select "Look and Layout". You can change the theme there, though there aren't many currently.

By doing both you are obviously trolling MS only and creating bait.

Or so I heard on another site.

Edit:
Oh, I also find it absolutely amazing the mod banned you and linked a post for it that was a response from you to a user who constantly attacks threads that aren't related to his console in which he was making an attack on an entire group of forum users and that guy didn't get banned!

Rise of the Tomb Raider is pretty high and still a week left til launch. Gears still selling a good amount.
Halo 5 sold a good amount and in a vacuum, its first month sales were great. It's just that its sales performance was disappointing in context of how the previous games did.

I think Gears will sell a lot lower than previous games and still sell well also.

My guess? Because the bulk of sales for the XB1s are going to people who already own an XB1 and are fans of Gears. If Gears drops then expect the PS4 to dominate once again. At the moment that drop could just be a blip and we won't know that for sure until a few days have passed.

Corrected the Madden Bundle. Thanks.

Why do you think I said we could see one of the biggest slumps in console sales next year than we've seen in years. It should get worse as we get nearer to the release of the Scorpio. How many months are people willing to wait instead of buying an XB1s? Would they buy an XB1s a month before the Scorpio? (I doubt it). Two months ... three months ... four months? Would anyone be interested in the XB1s even six months out?

In the mean time Sony will have several AAA games at the beginning of the year, 4K gaming and PSVR. I'm starting to suspect some of the delays are tactical and Sony are relying on AAA third party deals and hardware to see them through this Christmas, giving them what would be a chance to almost relaunch the PS4 in January/February.

I don't know about that. I'd put the XB1 ahead right now. I will say though that if those 4 PS4 skus stay just below the 1 XB1 sku and the XB1 sku doesn't get into the top 20, we're probably looking at a very small victory for the XB1 if things don't change.

I seem to recall Sony saying they've sold out of their PSVR allocation for the US, but there will be a few extra units at retailers come launch.

Everywhere is out of stock.  

I wonder if Walmart's only having PSVR will mean that PSVR is in a better position than Vive/OR.  
Technically Walmart has the other 2, but they are sold through 3rd parties at 200$ more than anywhere else.

I read the amazon thread on chartz and here and for some reason I enjoy reading it here more. I think it's because the background is dark and the page not cluttered with adverts etc.  

Anyway the ps4 pro is doing excellent imo. The top selling sku most of the time and it's still a bit out and more expensive.  Not sure about the legs but this thing should have a big launch.

That was the ratio for Type-0 in the US/UK, so most likely the ratio is going to be more lopsided than that. Since Type-0, the XB1 only had one other JRPG while the PS4 received over a dozen.

So the big question is how much of an influence will Gears have on XB1 sales? With the Ultimate Edition releasing today and the standard version only a few days away, Amazon suggests there isn't a significant increase in sales. Will we see an XB1 in the top 20?

Also gg, Gears Ultimate Edition should be taken off preorders as it released today.

Ok, I'll take it off next time, thanks.

Clearly the PS4pro is more popular than the Gears bundle, and I'm not 'confident' in the Gear bundle hitting the top 20. The reviews are out already so the only possible way the hype (equals more sales) can be elevated further than it is already is through Let's Plays. TLOU benefited greatly from those but that was mainly because of the story and from what I've heard Gears isn't exactly noted for its story.

edit: and now I've got two XB1 owners (over at VG) complaining about how many SKUs there are for the XB1. Amazon used to run so smoothly and in good spirit until they started getting involved and now it's just turning into yet another mess. No offense to decent XB1 owner.

It's not a coincidence that there is a lot of software in the top 20 at the moment and the console are not getting into the top 20. Sofware is pushing consoles down. I wouldn't mind betting that IF that software wasn't selling so well, the console would be a good 8 - 10 places higher.

Ps4 slim back to #2 on amazon Japan.  Above pokemon again.  This is good because pokemon is a high barometer to be above.  Next Wednesday and the following Wednesday should give the new baseline so I'm really excited for that.

The more consoles there are out there, the more the consoles have to sell to beat the software, which obviously sell more because there's more consoles out there. Confusing but you see what I mean.

It's a bit early yet but if I had to make a call I'd say this is more proof that the XB1s is selling more to existing owners than it is to new customers. This is another factor in my prediction of a huge slump in XB1s sales next year.

Well yeah next year sales will be crud barring insane deals by Microsoft to clear stock.  And on top of that people will wait to see what the scorpio is and then when it's announced many will wait to buy that.  

OT:
Just as I mentioned pokemon on amazon Japan and both sku's jump back to #1, #2. Both these sku's will be doing big numbers until they release so anything that gets temporarily above them are doing very well.  A high benchmark.

Which is another factor in my prediction. The two others are the insane deals MS have trained their fans to expect and the way they focus their fans on only 4 months of the year.

yes, it's out of stock. It's terrible that the only option people have got now is to buy the more expensive Pro or the cheaper OGPS4 that needs the stock clearing ... I don't know what Sony were thinking! They keep making mistake after mistake ...

It's out of the top 20. If the game releases the month I post the list, it's included no matter where it is in the top 100. If the game releases more than a month from when I post it, then I include it only if it's in the top 20. That's why I have that line there. It just keeps the list more manageable.

Eve doesn't have a release date on it so I assume it's not releasing this month.

No retail exclusive deal from what I know.

I do expect Gears 4 to sell lower than Halo 5 and Uncharted 4.

That means less than 800k NPD.

I think even the Gears bundle hasn't sold all that well. Compared to the Halo 5 LE bundle, which cost $500 back then:

Halo 5 LE Bundle

August 2015 (https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/2015-08/videogames/ref=zg_bsar_videogames_pg_3?ie=UTF8&pg=1#2) - #24

October 2015 (https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/2015-10/videogames/ref=zg_bsar_videogames_pg_3?ie=UTF8&pg=1#2) - #25

Gears 4 LE Bundle

August 2016 - Not in the Top 100
September 2016 - Not in the Top 100
October 2016 (as of now) - #35

We see that the Halo 5 LE bundle clearly had better preorders. And with the way things are going now, the Gears bundle will not hit #25 for October, but instead will start dropping.

Yeah you're right it doesn't look good.

So now the S as been out for a while, is it safe to say MS's 'upgrade' approach could be the reason for the majority of sales and people upgrading from XB1 OG. Gribs has pointed this out a few times already. Could the knock on effect be the second hand market being flooded with second hand XB1s. So while the S did cause a sales spike, it could be followed by a huge slump which we are seeing now.

I said this a while back but that's where the PS4 has the advantage too. The PS4s is simply a cheaper version to produce so Sony can make money and sell it for less. The XB1s on the other hand is being sold on the fact it's a 'better' version of the XB1. This means it's more likely the OG PS4 will fair better in the second hand market than the OG XB1. This will (IMO) have a knock on effect. Shops will begin to build more unsold stock of the OG XB1 and so therefore offer less to people wanting to sell it on. Meanwhile the OG PS4 will keep its value better because a lot of people prefer the look of it and the PS4s only offers them a different aesthetic, which means it's more likely to retain a decent value and people will get better deals when trading it in.

That's only theoretical but makes sense to me. We're going to see a huge slump in XB1 sales next year. I'm more or less sure of it. The PS4 Pro should help Sony to retain (or even grow) a decent monthly average, something Sony themselves are counting on when you consider their 20m target.

Could it be that the surge of existing user upgrading to the S has come to an end? Or is this dip temporary? It's just weird for Xbox One sales on Amazon to fall off a cliff in the last few days.

That was the first stage in my 'slump' prediction but I didn't expect it to happen now. I'm seeing this as a blip at the moment and nothing more. We'll see but it seems to me -- looking at PSVR games in the charts -- that it 'could' be something to do with PSVR and people putting off buying the XB1s to buy a PS4 Pro. So I'd put this down to the strength of the Playstation brand to be honest and it's just returning to what it would have been if MS hadn't had all those incredible deals.

Okay, there has to be some retailer exclusive deal for the XB1 somewhere because it's hard to believe the Gears bundle is falling that much in the wake of the game's release >_<

Pardon the cut and paste from another forum and the same question just asked:

My guess would be three things: the biggest majority of people buying the Gears Bundle was existing XB1 owners, PSVR is helping to push PS4 sales a little and PS4 Pro is more compelling than a console with only a third of its power.

I don't see any.  
Personally surprised it's been doing so well.
-450$ when you can pick up an XB1 for 250$ easily.  Even though that wouldn't include a slim, 2TB or Gears specifically.  There doesn't seem a large enough draw to bring new people in. Most Xbox people will already have a One.

The Gears bundle I can see dropping but the regular bundles, there's got to be deals elsewhere... Right?!

So if that isn't the case let's do a round up of factors that could of caused this drop.

Driveclub VR should be the highest charting PSVR game. It's probably the best use of VR out of all the launch games. I wonder if the cause for it being lower is Driveclub fans with a season pass are getting $10 off the digital version.

I like all kinds but I never had playstations so I'm unfamiliar with a lot of jrpgs and other series that are associated with it.
I have a PS3 slim but it was my first PlayStation and my wife gave it to me as a present because I had just tossed a 360 in the trash can while on a rant.
I do own two ps4s so I've decided to try games out I always hear people talk about.
During the height of the PlayStation era I mostly played on PC.
In fact before the 360 came out the last console I had purchased was an NES. I guess civilization was somewhat addicting?  dang you Sid Meir! Lol.

If you haven't played any Quantic Dream games I'd advise to play some of those. Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy in the US), Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls and epic experiences if you don't mind QTE. Metal Gear Solids are great in you can handle the slow starts and a load of cut scenes, which personally I didn't mind. MGS3 is my favourite for story but the new MGSV has by far the best gameplay out of all of them. MGS4 was great and loved the story but the boss battles were uninspired for a MGS game.

I would recommend getting the KH1.5 and 2.5 remixes on the PS3. They should help you understand the context of KH2.8 once you get that.

Prinz Valium or whatever it was? Xbox fanboy that was permabanned and since then can't help but make new alts to try and discredit the PS4 in any way he can. He's an idiot and super salty that the X1 is getting its dog handed to it.

Edit: Look at this shame, he has been making alts frequently for almost 2 years now, this isn't trolling this is just pathetic.

I played beyond two souls and liked it a lot.
I played a little heavy rain but never got far into. I do want to try it again.
I don't have a problem with QTE's or cut scenes being in games.

The Battlefield bundles will do well but Battlefield will also push PS4 sales so it'll be interested to see it can cut significantly into PS4's current domination in the hourly charts.

Yeah, but I reckon the fact it's bundled will have more affect on the XB1 short term. Let's see what happens long term though ;)

Now we'll just have to suffer the inevitable knee jerk predictions again! LOL. Not on here though. People seem more sensible here.

So this is pretty much the pinnacle of PSVR on Amazon. Now let's wait for people claim they were right that PSVR would fail when it drops out of the top 100 although it's pretty much expected to not sell at the same level as consoles.

I should write an article on a gaming website proclaiming that PSVR sales are up over a million percent on Amazon on launch day (and you won't believe that that's just talking about one SKU!!) PSVR million seller in the US on day 1 confirmed.

Well Sony might not even produce enough to meet demand whether that demand is high or low so it really might not matter a shame what they sell.  

And already it's sold out,  for example on amazon Japan.  So it doesn't look like they produced a boat load of them.

I have a feeling Sony will up their targets and restock.

PSVR is definitely pushing PS4 sales up across all SKUs and I'd suggest also taking sales away from the XB1. My take on that is people will have been saving for a second console but with the PSVR releasing, they're opting for the PSVR instead. This effect will ONLY last if Sony keep the PSVR restocked.

Again, it's too early to call but I'd be a madman not to bet on a PS4 win. I just can't see anything changing this trend that much.

We still have over 2 weeks to go. However, if the Battlefield bundle doesn't do much and the final monthly charts has two PS4 SKUs ahead of the highest ranking XB1 SKU, then it's pretty safe to assume that the PS4 wins October.

I'm a bit surprised that PSVR is ranking that high on the hourly charts and allegedly, having an influence on PS4 sales.

Those PS4 bundles have pushed higher and more consistently than before the PSVR. I recognise this could be a coincidence,  but would you buy that?

Hundreds of thousands is insane.  That would likely mean PSVR has close to half the market of Vive/Oculus/PSVR.

I think I've worked out why September Amazon was so far out. We know that a lot of xbox fans are going to upgrade and the best place to do that is brick and mortar stores. This could also be why the Xbox sales have dipped on Amazon as cheaper secondhand XB1s are flooding stores and eBay.

I've just found out the Halo Bundle is being sold at all retailers except Amazon and the Halo Bundle was the bundle that sold best for the XB1. That could well be one of the main factors for Amazon being wrong last month. I'm now not entirely sure the PS4 will take this month.

The way the Pro fluctuates between #26 and #28 shows (to me) that it's definitely reached the point in the charts where the software is stopping it rising any further. I'm confident now that if it wasn't for all the compelling software at the moment, ALL the console on Amazon would be at least 10 places higher. The question now is, if the Halo Bundle was on Amazon would it be above the Fool's Edition? For me, that's the deciding factor to decide who wins this month.

PSVR Launch Bundle straight into the monthly chart at 32nd. PS4 Pro moving up a place to 99th in the yearly. There may be doubt about the PSVR's capability to move PS4s but there's no doubt the PSVR is going to have a good debut.

yeah its gonna have a strong release. should be able to sell 1M+ by years end. whats important next is to keep a strong and steady stream of releases. GTS needs to release soon, and needs to have a strong VR mode. that can push VR in a HUGE way in Europe.

Farpoint needs to be good as well, if its good, it can help convince a lot of people to get a PSVR. getting FPS fans on board with VR is crucial. Farpoint needs to be the start of that.

I agree, software support is important. Lack of it is the reason Kinect and Move died.

Well it has todo with more people trading in the old system for the new. I'd expect next month with the pro to be the same situation. I know I'm trading my in and it's easier to do that at best buy or gamestop. Hoping they have a good trade in deal. I talked to them while I was there getting the psvr but they don't have an actual deal right now. Just 150 trade for a ps4. making the pro 250.  

Have they announced any bundles yet?

Once the Pro launches things will get back to normal. There's not going to be an endless stock of OG XB1s, and that's one of the things that threw last month out. The Halo Bundle is NOT being sold by Amazon this month and that could have a baring on this month too, although going by Amazon at the moment, even with that taken into consideration it looks to be the PS4 that takes this month. I'm not predicting that with anywhere near as much confidence as normal though.

The only thing that could possibly upset the apple cart right now is the fact the Halo Bundle (the most successful bundle) isn't being sold on Amazon but it is everywhere else. I'll be glad when the Pro releases and we get back to normal.

XB1: 1 in the top 100 / 0 in the top 50 / 0 in the top 20 / 0 in the top 10

Now it's getting interesting! First we have to take into consideration that for nearly 2 weeks 3 - 4 PS4 SKUs have been above XB1 SKUs. Then we have to take into consideration for most of those 2 weeks the XB1 SKUs got no higher than #80. So the PS4 will have built up quite a lead over those two weeks. The question is, can ONE XB1 SKU (if it stays above PS4 SKUs that affect this month) make up ground before the end of the month? The Pro has clearly been fluctuating between #25 and #28 which indicates it was indeed stronger software sales holding it below the top 20. IF the XB1 Battlefield Bundle can reach the top #20 then this HAS to indicate it's selling better (at this point) than any of the 4 PS4 SKUs originally dominating. Depending how long it holds a spot in the top 20 (if it gets there) will decide my prediction for this month.

I don't know what's worse; watching the XB1 owners becoming ever more delusional or watching Playstation fans panicking over what they think is Sony's lack of commitment. (not you)

PSVR has barged it's way into the montly with the launch bundle going into the top 10 and the standard bundle in at 40th.

PS4 seems to be controlling the monthly chart but I'd like to point out that for some reason the Amazon isn't charting the Gears 4 1TB bundle and the Halo 500GB bundle has been out of stock for a while when other stores have it stocked and ready to sell. Theses 2 factors have to be considered when judging the outcome of NPD data for this month.

If it is right this time then it looks to be an easy win for the PS4. It's been right for three years and only wrong once, so unless the anomaly persists, we should be back to normal soon. The thing to note is the Halo Bundle isn't available on Amazon and there are still OG XB1 deals going on in other stores. I would hasten a guess once the Pro releases next month we'll be able to take Amazon for granted again.

No, we entered the month with it out of the chart. The yearly chart 'positions moved' data is the positions moved from the start of the month and not the positions moved from the last update that I do with the monthly and you do with the hourly. It just makes more sense to me to do the yearly this way.

We've got no idea. That's part of the problem we have at the moment when deciding who won the month using Amazon. Looking at the Gamestop charts isn't good enough either because they don't always reflect what's actually going on.

There are now 4 PS4 bundles above the highest XB1 bundle on the monthly, 3 of those bundles release this month. PS4 Pro jumps 6 places in one day on the yearly, that's quite a leap for a console still a month away from launch. Pro is going to be huge!!!!

Those unaccounted for bundles out in the wild will need to be selling incredibly well even to overturn what is possibly the skewed results here.

Yes I was thinking the same. At this point in time the Battlefield bundle would replace the highest selling bundle anyway, so right now the hourly charts are probably somewhere near even if they had the Halo bundle in stock.

Regardless of what happens, I have a feeling in Nov the PS4 will win by a margin bigger than 175k+whatever the gap is in Oct if the XB1 wins. I'll be sure to point that out on VG. Hopefully you do the same.

It is possible that the Pro + the Infinite Warfare/Modern Warfare slim bundle can erase whatever ground the XB1 gained over the past 3 months. We shouldn't underestimate Microsoft's aggressiveness even though their software offerings outside of Forza Horizon 3 have been meh.

I wonder if Sony will also do a standard FFXV bundle for December...

No doubt MS will be aggressive but the Pro will have a lot of preorders by the time it launches and Sony will probably be aggressive with the Slim bundles. Theoretically Sony should be able to drop their console lower than the XB1 S, this is where Sony plan of making a cheaper console will have it's advantage. XB1 S is riding the wave of the upgraders at the moment.

A storm is coming. People are making hay while the sun shines but they're not thinking about the COD bundle, WD Bundle and Pro. MS are winning because of people opting to wait for the Pro, aggressive OG bundles as well as cheap XB1s bundles. MS have devalued their console so much that without great deals (meaning MS taking a loss) people will just wait for the next big deal. Next year we're going to see a drop in sales of the XB1 console like we've never seen before. Meanwhile Sony will be pushing hard with the PS4s, Pro, PSVR and a plethora of exclusives in Q1 of 2017.

And it's not just Amazon where the Pro is preordering high. It's doing really well in Walmart, Best Buy, and Gamestop according to OsirisBlack and Abdiel.

Yeah I wouldn't bet against that. Like the XB1 S a lot of existing PS4 owners are upgrading to Pro, I expect it to do well after the upgrade period dies down but how well is yet to be seen.

Heck, I wasn't interested in the Pro and still not that interested, but the hype is starting to tempt me a little bit.
Dude, all your games will be downsampled. 250 is what it would cost from gamestop with the trade of your ps4. I'm not going to say it's worth it, but it's worth it.

I wonder if I can sell my PS4 for more than $150. If I can manage to sell it for $200, I can get the Pro for half off.

Yeah, you should be able to get 200 for it, maybe more. Just depends on the buyer. Hold out for some deal and a bundle. That's what I'm going to do. At least i'm going to try.

I don't think it's messed up with the bundles. It's just messed up because of what's NOT on Amazon.

If titles like this can release post launch and do good numbers it will really encourage most developers to jump on board. 

Amazon Japan:
Battlefield 1 still #1
According to amazon it's done big numbers.  According to comg it's not.  Find out next week!

Amazon America :
Skyrim shaping up for a good launch
Robinson doing well
Battlefield flying high

Man PSVR is holding pretty well on Amazon. I'm really interested in October NPD results. I lost my September bet to Legend, but I can still take October!!

Also why does Rigs seem so unappreciated among the VR games? For all intents and purposes it should be the standout title and the game to buy for the headset. Is it the price tag?

Oh god, I remembered that and when I mentioned it on GAF, everyone was surprised. Literally no one except the mod team knew the reason for his permaban. Wish The Shogun was still on GAF because him, OsirisBlack, and Abdiel would be perfect for determining which console won.

I predicted that the Pro would reach the top 20 at the end of this month or the start of next, and then the top 10 on release. I also predicted that as that was taking place, the PS4 Slim would begin to move further down the charts.

Not really on topic, but I'm assuming your signature is in response to Microsoft's recent comments on the Scorpio.

It's rather silly how people put so much attention on Microsoft's statements. It serves nothing more to hype up the Scorpio and persuade consumers to hold off on the Pro for one year in favor for their upgraded console.

That said, the "true 4K" and "high fidelity VR" monikers gave me a good chuckle. The "true 4K" part is obviously wrong. For the latter, PSVR has the ability to run at 120fps or the option to reproject 60fps games to 120fps. It also has higher subpixel density because it uses an RGB matrix rather than a pentile matrix.

EDIT: Huh, and according to N4G, this news is actually 20 days old.

Don't you think it's interesting they didn't say 'native 4K' which is how you would usually write it? It's almost as if MS realise their fans using 'native' will only confuse people, so they 'arm' them with a better word to lie with. 'It's not really true 4K on the Pro'. 'The Scorpio is true 4K.' They are desperate in the truest sense of the word.

Kind of? I guess you're saying when MS says "true 4K", they mean anything that displayed in 4K whether it is native 4K or upscaled. Personally, I'm just going to assume MS means native 4K when they say "true 4K". It doesn't matter at the end because both interpretations of the statement are false.

I mean if that's how you want to interpret it. I just see it was mere boasting in an attempt to distract consumers' attention from the Pro to the Scorpio. A year gap is a lot of time. We have two precedents where having a year head start can have a significant effect on sales and consumer mindshare: PS2 vs Xbox, PS3 vs 360.

We see on Amazon that the Pro is doing great. We have also gotten assessments from OsirisBlack and Abdiel that implies very high preorder numbers at Best Buy, Gamestop, and Walmart. PSVR is doing well relative to the Oculus and Vive. It sold a third of what Vive has sold so far in just Japan.

This is why I think Microsoft's recent statements are (poor) counters against the Pro's hype and PSVR as a way to divert mindshare. It's not just the Pro that is getting a headstart, but also PSVR. Before, Phil Spencer said that he doesn't want to be distracted by VR (http://www.gamepur.com/news/23606-xboxs-spencer-doesnt-want-be-distracted-vr-doesnt-want-turn-pc-fans-console.html). However, it appears that the company is currently distracted by PSVR.

Yes, I do agree in general. I've never seen a company so obviously worried about another product and who is willing to show it quite blatantly in their PR.

No way is PSPro not taking sales away from regular PS4 this month. I reckon the pro will have a strong launch in November.

I wonder, will they cut the price on black Friday? Offer a gave or two for free with it? Or just do nothing and cut/make deals on the slim

PSVR rose back up rather quickly :o

Probably for only a short while, but it's pretty clear that a lot of consumers want it.

One thing I noticed when comparing September and October's charts is that the PS4 and XB1 SKUs are more grouped together in October. In September, the PS4 and XB1 SKUs alternated with each other. Hard to say what the outcome will be on October NPD, but I think it's safe to say the October gap will be smaller than the September gap.

PSPro rising, i think its going to be really big this holiday. i wonder what Sony will do on black friday. if they cut it temporarily to 350$ it would explode in sales.

I don't think they'll do much other than add a game or two. We'll likely see great deals for the PS4 Slim though.

Pro won't get BF spotlight, at best maybe a bundled game, price stays the same
Slim is the real deal, will be 250 with 1 or 2 games depending on which ones are in

Another month over and now we head into the the 2 strongest months of the year. Pro preorders have been insane and Xbox had a poor showing but that could be due to people trading in their consoles at brick-and-mortar stores and Amazon's failure to track the Gears bundle. Whatever happened we can't come to any sort of conclusion until we get NPD results.

November thread will be up shortly!!!

If Amazon gets this wrong then we'd have to assume Amazon has dramatically changed their algorithm. I'm not looking forward to 'we told you Amazon wasn't reliable' posts on VG, a ludicrous (pun intended) position to take after 3 straight years of it being correct. Those *snap* moments are going to come thick and fast, I can feel it.

The reason why Amazon didn't predict the correct winning console in September is because other retailers offered deals while Amazon did not offer a deal of similar value. Before, we would see things like GameStop offering a $100 discount for trading in a PS3/360 while Amazon bundle 2 extra games at no extra cost. But in September and October, we only see GameStop and Best Buy offering deals while Amazon didn't do much.

The Gears bundle didn't even have a ranking and never appeared in the October charts. That's what I mean. The lead is so huge on Amazon for October, if it's wrong we'll have to consider whether Amazon will ever be reliable again. It's a shame but we have to face up to it.
