Hardware sales are abysmal for the most part this week? Wha Happun?

Software has nothing exciting this week, though Nier performance and Splatoon just chilling above 100k are impressive.

Next week should prove to be very interesting. Persona 5 Royal will be releasing on ALL platforms and it'll be interesting to see which place (or if) each ranks on the charts.

Very likely, it already moved millions on PS3 and PS4 for years now, even as someone that loves that game, I'm not getting a PS5 version lol I'll stick with the steelbook version I have now. I know on PS5 it runs 4K native and I just don't see what else I'd really want from it at this point to spend money on yet another version.

Its not even like a FES version, its literally just Royal.....again lol
 
Kirby and the Forgotten Land has now passed 900K at retail.

Crazy that there are more people buying a 2DS over the PS4.
It's because the PS4 is nearly as sold out as the PS5 is. I don't think they're actually being send here anymore. The ones that are available for purchase are nearly the same price as a PS5 and that's for the base model.
