Oh, it's NPD day.
Will be a entertaining night because the winner will not be the same as always.

After all these months of disappointment, humiliation and unfair gleefulness it's well deserved they finally win a month.
Go, nintendo.
Indeed, many people won't expect 3DS first.
We'll see lol
Poor Xbox One if 3DS steal the crown that is destined for it.

3DS used an Incense to get more sales.
But even though I kept the PS4 at #1, I kinda don't want it to be. Would be nice to see either XB1 or 3DS at the top.

OR a lucky egg this time around.
For a while I've maintained that the fate of Nintendo handhelds is currently intrinsically linked to how Pokemon is doing. If Pokemon is active and strong, the 3DS will do fine. If not, you get the last year and a half of disappointing performances.
Depending on how big the boost is this month, my statement might be more accurate than I thought.

I still think PS4 will be first in July, but i see it be third in August. Not even talk about why XBO will outsell it (cause is obvius), while i think Pokémon GO effect in August will be stronger than in July if we talk about sells hardware. We'll see.

Sony should start counting their mau.
Game Boy was pretty much dying a slow death of apathy before Pokemon came out, so that's a pretty fair assessment. Obviously, there are good series/games on the system, otherwise, but Pokemon gave Game Boy's a new life and gives hope to every Nintendo handheld since for some level of success.

Only if you expect to be able to see the other people in the thread when you're in the same thread.

Minecraft top spot
SFV in top 100
Units.
SFV in top 100

So MOJO could be above PS4.
Dat Wii U version boost for one, dat EVO boost for the other.
Even based on revenue? Must be a really slow month for software then.

That Pokemon Go effect I guess. Wow.

Amazon Prime day and the 500GB model got cut to $249 in the last week.
Every pokemon version counts as a different game so I doubt it, maybe in the top 20 skus
Yea I'm not really shocked. That's just a good value.
