Amazon Best Sellers: Best PlayStation 4 Digital Game Codes

Astrobot is the number 1 digital ps4 game being sold.  

On the one hand that's like qualifiers, still cool.  They aren't selling it atm though.

You're really rooting for Astro Bot aren't you

PS4 seems to be sold out except for RDR2 Pro and Fifa slim here in the UK already. Pretty nuts, I guess they really did only make deals enough to sell through the amount of stock they had.

I like rooting for good games!  
Especially when they're underdogs.

Yes please!

Tesco are selling XB1 Fortnite bundle in store for £139. Holy shame, surely that's being sold at a loss?? Best part is that there was an offer where you could get RDR2 free with the Fortnite bundle, and that deal overlapped with the £139 deal for a bit, so some lucky sods got an XB1S 1TB with RDR2 and some fortnite shame for £139. Mad. There are also some sub £200 PS4 deals out there, so I guess if people shop around its not too bad.

Yeah profit maximisation strategy. They'd be crazy not to if they can't supply more stock.

Basically the jist of it was extremely strong interest for PS4 and Switch where software and hardware were popular.

Xbox One did well Software wise thought hardware was weaker than the other too(still did alright though)

Had a few people ask me if Smash Bros Iltimate was out lmao

I just checked out my local Saturn (big electronics retailer) out of curiosity. Jeez I don't know why people do this to themselves....

Saw a lot of people with PS4's, some people checked out the Switch and X1, but I didn't really see any get sold. Cheapest PS4 was 240€ for 500gigs with Spider-Man. The Pro deal was better imo at 340€ with RDR2 and Spider-Man, but people gravitated towards the cheaper Slims, especially the ones with Fifa.

X1 was 165€ with Forza or something. Switch was 280€ solo or 380€ and 400€ for the Pokemon and Smash bundles respectively (which is a joke for Black Friday btw).

Yay for anecdotes.

Fair enough. I'm intrigued as to how much Sony are going to resupply this Spidey bundle this weekend, if at all, and whether they have any deals for December. Switch just needs to ship as much as it can, I'm sure it'll sell through a fudge tonne.

PS4 Pro RDR2 bundle seems to be the hot item in the UK this BF, despite only being £20 off. Not too shabby.

Most impressive. Safe to say it should easily beat pokemon's 3M debut.
