And PC has the bodypillow pillowcase market wrapped up.

Sony should ditch the PS4 and invest into home textiles

It's the off-season.

 

[SaucyJack]

This is out soon, right?

beary quiet tonight

Is it going to be one of those months where no one reveals anything at all beyond vague PR because it's so slow?

It would be interesting to see what the NPD thread would look like without any January leaks for the first few days, haha.

I would prefer that, NPD threads are unreadable in the first few hours and important information get's easily lost. Drip feeding leaks over several days would work out better.

The report found consumers spent $20.0 billion on small appliances,

Meh, small appliances are not real appliances anyway.

Yes, January is such a slow month that we risk to not get any official PR / official number at all. I wonder if Nintendo can find out some stats about good LTDs for some of their games, some % thing or whatever to tie with an obvious New 3DS launch promotion for their PR. In the same way, I wonder if Microsoft could use the Xbox Family "trick" / amount of titles in top 10 to say something. I wonder if Sony...naah, they'll go with the usual Twitter message "We're 1st again, #4theplayers!" and call it a day.

 

[Aquamarine]

NYSE / NASDAQ are now closed.

Time for NPD numbers.

They don't give a sheet.

 

[Kayant]

Curious to see MS pr IF they lose.

I don't expect PR given we are not in season anymore and drop off from December/no major releases to spin numbers from.

 

[cakely]

They don't give a sheet.

It's not fair to make a blanket statement like that.

I prefer blue towels over green. I'm pretty sure the last time I was at Target, there were hardly any blue towels on the shelves, but green towels everywhere. They were even bundling them with toothbrush holders; same bundles from Black Friday. So sad.

 

[anexanhume]

I prefer blue towels over green.

Can we please not talk about the Plush Effect 3 ending again? This is a NPD thread.

 

[slavesnyder]

Be careful leakers. NPD ninjas are already on their watchtowels.

what about Canadian NPD? they get same day date time release like US NPD?

 

[GarciaHotspur]

I have the felling that XBO is at the top !

Oh the green towel

 

[Aquamarine]

Canadian bath towels are always inferior to their USA equivalents

 

[slavesnyder]

I don't know if it's the same day, but it's pretty cloth.

 

[Mpl90]

So, now we're 2 hours before official NPD report is released, thus, IIRC, the report is already available to subscribers.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Maybe this NPD will help me decide what bed sheets to get

 

[Hades Hotgun]

Is this what NPD threads are like when no one is watching?

 

[Daemul]

Meh, the blue towel is the best anyway.

 

[NickFire]

I predict that within 24 hours of NPD release, someone will make an entirely flawed argument pertaining to the global sales to date, based upon NPD numbers.

 

[slavesnyder]

I hope there will still be a discushion coming up.

Personally I'm wondering how long until someone makes the "Well NPD is just an estimate" argument.

 

[TheStruggler]

when does it release

There's a magical place called an "Opening Post" on forums.

In this mythical land you can find many wonderful things, especially when they are well-crafted.

What you did there? I saw it. I saw it SUPER good.

 

[BumRush]

The thread count is up in the 500s and ya'll are talking about TOWELS?

 

[Elandyll]

I have the felling that XBO is at the top !

That would make for a very "interesting" thread, as it would be the first time in 15 months that the Amazon ranking would be wrong

This being said, I understand a bit of confusion as it's dificult to reconcile the hourly sales of Chezmoi White Comforters which seem to be doing a killing in Bedding& Bath, with how well Levi's 505 is doing in Men's Clothing.

Towels seem to have really crashed this past month

Don't worry, we won't leave you out to dry.

You lie, the "Opening Post" has no towels. LIAR. LIAAAAAAAAARRRRRRR.

Xbox 360 on top this month confirmed!

I have a strange feeling XB1 won the month. lol.

My keyboard is ready.....

Spoiler

I can't be bothered with people like that any more...

The need to drop the price 1/2 way through suggests otherwise.

Only one I know in recent memory who used that argument was the Kooch and even he stopped (or maybe he didn't, I don't follow Polygon's twitter)

 

[Aquamarine]

Damn...no Twitter or Reddit buzz at all.

Just GAF and Chartz it seems like.
