Jesus Christ Allmighty and his friends Muhammed and Joseph and Vishnu, is NPD data coming on Thursday? Are people ready for their forthcoming mental breakdowns?

This is for October's NPD, unless Sunset Overdrive or Bayonetta 2 act below or above expectations in some grand way, there is unlikely to be too large of meltdowns

Note: This is the hourly chart, the one changing every hour of every day, not the one relative to the whole past week / month / year. While weekly / monthly charts allow us to see how things have been up to now, hourly charts could help us in seeing what could be the incoming sales trends. But Amazon.com charts still need to be filtered and rightfully weigthed, you can't take literally everything they say as the exact truth

I'm going to have my mental breakdown next month. Even if it's just a normal month I'll flip :D This month I'm quietly interested.

Thanks as always for putting that together. Always find it interesting to read. The daily amazon top sellers change around a lot at the moment.

Message for Aqua:
It's not the same without you.

No Pachter predictions after last month fiasco?

He always make predictions for NPD months I think. It's just sometimes these predictions are not leaked. I guess he didn't make a controversial prediction this month, so the leaks are not worth it.

I miss Aqua :(

Thinks mods influence posters politics. Promoted to QAnon Editor.
he regular Xbox One SKU doesn't come with a free game and it's $400 on Amazon for some reason (sold out?) -- hence why many are getting the Xbox One AC Unity bundle. That's still above the regular PS4 SKU. The COD bundle is still above the PS4 Destiny bundle.

AC bundle came out yesterday, expect it to fall quickly, especially with the mediocre reviews of the game. COD bundle is $400 vs Destiny $450 and Destiny was a September release, so that is no surprise.

I guess the only question is (which you were alluding to) is will the Asscreed bundle be the defacto XB1 SKU until something better comes along and what position will it hold in the coming weeks, top 20?

yeah, the reviews are totally going to hurt it sort of like Destiny did to the PS4 /s

It was noticed in the most recent Unity thread (the one about the blog), and it's actually about November and not October, but it's still about sales in US, right?

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00J48C36S/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Assassin's Creed Unity on Xbox One is already under $50 ($49.89), and the game released just two days ago. It's true that the bundle is the highest selling hardware currently, but this doesn't speak that well for the standalone version.

PS4 version continues to go from $59.99 directly from Amazon to around $51/$52 (shipment costs excluded, around $54/$55 when including them) sold by third party.

That happened to madden as well. The 360&X1 versions were like $40 a few weeks after launch while the Playstation versions were still full price.

Aqua and Cream are the reason. So sad. :(

Yup. The most news we will get is PR and probably a few bans and arguments tonight.

Oh wow NPD is tonight? Completely slipped my radar just like last month. For some reason NPD night always seems to appear out of nowhere for me. Really sad that Cream and Aqua won't be making an appearance later tonight. :(

Aqua if you're reading this regardless of whether you post numbers or not in NPD threads I've always loved reading your intelligent, insightful and analytical posts. You always seemed good-natured and responsive in all of the threads I've seen you post in. Almost every post I've read of yours has enlightened me or taught me something new.

Please come back when you feel you're ready. GAF is not the same without you.

Well Hindle and Raymaker are already out, so its probably gonna be pretty tame unless some juniors pickup the slack.
 
Those of you asking how about how we are going to get any data this month really weren't paying attention in the last NPD thread, or else this is some huge elaborate troll.
 
Time until PR usually starts

Likely going to be a quiet NPD thread simply due to the month in question. Sunset Overdrive and Bayonetta sales should be interesting I suppose

Why are strippers at the U.N. bad when they're great at strip clubs???

Hopefully Bombenetta did at least 125-150k. The game is most likely extremely front-loaded and won't have the usual Nintendo legs.

It probably won't even reach 300k LTD ;.;

This NPD thread is going to be pathetic. Unless the big 3 give us numbers out of pity, we won't have much to go on besides speculation and vague statements.
