My first reaction too. Fortnite Crew is content filler.

Xbox going to be praying Modern Warfare 4 is a blowout success this holiday.

This will also be a data point for how much the Xbox audience bounces back for COD unit sales now that there's a 12 month delay. Will it rebound to prior levels or is it permanently shot?

Starfield Was The Best-Selling Game In The U.S. The Week Of Its PS5 Launch Admittedly, the competition wasn't stiff

"Piscatella adds that this was Starfield’s fourth-biggest full game sales week in the U.S. since launch, being beaten only (unshockingly) by its first three weeks on the market."

The PS5 release accounted for 95% of Starfield's full game dollar sales during the new version's debut week.

Starfield was the best-selling video game of the week in tracked physical & digital US full game dollar sales during the week ending April 11th.

It's the first time Starfield has led the weekly US best-selling titles chart since week ending Sept 2, 2023.

"One of these things is not like the others..."

Anyways, 6th calendar year for PS5 = 2025.

I wonder if the average sales price for a PS5 in its 7th calendar year can beat PS3's 1st year record high.

IDK who needs to hear this but the "you have to adjust for inflation" bit isn't the zinger you think it is.

Because you'd also have to adjust for inflation in shelter, utilities, medical, insurance, f%&(ing food - and then you'd realize purchasing power has fallen as wage growth hasn't kept up.

All major retailers now have PS5 at the new increased MSRP

Pro: $899
Disc: $649
Digital: $599

Took 2 weeks for that to happen, likely lines up with new units coming in + increased sales of old SKU clearing out faster

PS5 Pro stats should be notable this week / month.

The GTA Online and RDR Online revenue leaks are crazy to see.

Kingdom Hearts 1 probably. Much slower paced compared to the later games and it still holds up extremely well

2 is the goat though

For the week ending Mar 28, Crimson Desert ranked 1st on Xbox in weekly hours per US active user (20 hours per active user) and 2nd on PlayStation (22) behind only Path of Exile.

Crimson Desert also moved into the top 20 in US total weekly active users across both console platforms. Great momentum.

I'm expecting PS6 to be ~$900. There is a point when the price becomes so expensive that you question the need to subsidize the product at all due to how limited the consumer base will be.

Is there going to be a massive difference between a PS6 sold at $750 vs $800? $800 vs $900? I doubt it.

"Buy the dip!"

Anyone that bought one at $399 or below are unicorns this gen.

Sorry but companies NEED to make 50% profit or they're FINISHED

That's why even after hitting 50% they'll lay off people to hit 60% and get a massive dopamine rush.

FTC’s presentation slide, showing its revenue sources: In 2024, game console business was 77% In 2025, game console business was 86%

I think I know where Mochizuki’s source or himself got the 6M/4M production and “over 30% cut” numbers from.

Background info:
Foxconn Technology Co. (FTC) is a major Switch assembler. 86% of its 2025 revenues came from Nintendo alone. So its financial data is a good proxy for Switch production.

How's Nex Playground doing this month?

Where does Helldivers II rank on PlayStation platforms?

Seeing chatter on Resident Evil: Requiem for Switch 2. The game was sold standalone as well as part of the Resident Evil Generation Pack.

Combined spending on these two versions would rank #2 on the Nintendo best-selling titles chart for Feb behind the physical only sales of Mario Tennis Fever.

What are the rankings for the other platforms, and the revenue changes for each platform YOY?

Sales revenue by hardware platform for The Witcher 3 & Cyberpunk 2077.

(2020 includes the PSN refunds for Cyberpunk 2077 & 2025 includes the PS+ revenue payment)

Anyways, yes PS5 was also the lead platform for Requiem in the US during February (full results coming out Friday).

PS5 was below 50% of the game's US full game dollar sales in the month, but it was the lead platform by a meaningful margin over PC.

Resident Evil Requiem has sold 6 million units, "the fastest that a title in the series has reached this milestone" www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/n...

Pokopia is a system seller, Switch 2 Base has reached +30K sold in the past month on Amazon, a rate of +2K sold a day since Pokopia came out.

Sales also hit similar levels at Walmart which has yet to slow down.

October was 328K, I can see March approaching 400K.

My literal second thought
