Good result for builders.  The legs are the defining factor though.  Next 4 weeks will be interesting.

Amazon January 2016 Best Sellers:

And that's it for the hardware. Software front its interesting, the division led the way and there's some other interesting placements

BACK IN BLACK

08/Feb/2016
Activision re-take No1 with 'Call of Duty: Black Ops III' racking up a ninth No1 spot since launch last year (+11%).

After last week's big debut week at No1 for Warner's 'Lego Marvel Avengers', second week sales after launch week drop 41% for this title and it sits at No2. Brand new at No3 is Bandai Namco's long-running manga-based 'Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4', which makes the transition to PS4 and Xbox One for the first time and becomes the second biggest week 1 seller in the series - previous outing in this series 'Ninja Storm 3' also debuted at No3 (week 10, 2013 on PS3/360) and remains the week 1 best-seller in the series.
Ubisoft's 'Assassin's Creed: Syndicate' jumps 11 places to No9 (+78%) due to promotional activity and Bandai Namco also take the second highest new entry this week at No11 with PS4 'Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth'. Next of the new releases at No20 is 2K/Take2's PC 'XCom 2' which is part of the Take 2 series revival that began in 2012 with 'XCom: Enemy Unknown' (the original concept dates back to 1994 as 'UFO: Enemy Unknown' for Amiga and PC, published by Microsprose). One more title debuts within the Top 40 at No34 and that's Sony's PS4 'Gravity Rush Remastered'.

Meh

[DerNebel]

MS going all in Spain.

I've seen stores do that with groceries or sometimes I've seen it be done with games in electronics stores, never have I seen someone do that with a dang console, lol.

Also regarding Gravity Rush Remastered, doesn't that release this week in the UK?

Yeah I looked it up, for some reason I thought GR Remastered would release in the UK the same week it does in the rest of Europe and not one week earlier. I'm still not sure if I want to get that game or Firewatch, the reviews for Firewatch better help me make that decision later today.

So is that about 500 euros for 3 xb1?

[ethomaz]

750 euros.

The FIFA 16 bundle costs €379.99 in Spain.
Only 1500 units too... so it is to end stock of FIFA 16 bundles.

Oh so that's what they mean with the 250 euros

[Aura7541]

Nice debut for Digimon

Apparently, the reason why GR charted so low was because it had a very limited physical release, so most of its sales in the UK is digital.

If Gravity Rush can inch to 500k I say job well done.
