Link to November best sellers if you want a look at them



You can edit the number "11" to get other months or remove it all together to see the full year

Amazon USA (November)

Hardware:

#12 - PS5 slim
#27 - PS5 Digital slim
#31 - PS5 - Fortnite bundle (digital)
#34 - Playstation Portal
#48 - PS VR2
#57 - PS5 Pro
#87 - PS5 - Fortnite bundle (disc edition)
#94 - PS5 Digital (NBA 2k25 edition)

No Switch or Xbox consoles in sight inside the top 100...while PS5 had 6 skus...plus Portal and VR2.

Also...this was funny:
#17 - Gamepass Ultimate (1 month) for 15 bucks

this selling less units than one of the PS5s skus is hilarious to me, specially in november and just one month after COD debuted. People really don't want to stay on gamepass for long. No matter how much they want this to be the netflix of gaming...it will never get there.

Seems like PS5 will be carrying this black friday and christmas now in december.

Switch was on sale at other stores while not discounted at Amazon so that muddied the water more than usual. But yeah PlayStation dominated November

Xbox has lost so much mind share.

That said, my casual gamer friends that were Xbox 360 gamers back in the day, still have Xbox systems so some of that casual “broski” audience that doesn’t visit forums like this or even go to something like ign.com has already purchased one of those Xbox series units years back and is not contributing to sales today


One of those friends, who has game pass, is oblivious to this Microsoft drama.

Which is why I think they’ll stay in hardware at least one more gen. Millions of people like that.

Realistically, MS primarily wants to get rid of Gamepass as quickly as possible and the best way to do it is simply stop selling dedicated hardware (read: consoles). The sooner they get back to selling games instead of giving them away for free, the better for Xbox things will be. There's no way MS plans to give away games for free another 10+ years

Why would they do that when Quest 3 is better supported on PC?
Quest 3 works way better as standalone MR-platform than a PCVR headsets. I use both and I vastly prefer PSVR2 as a PC accessory. I’d say both helmets got their kinks with Windows, but PSVR2 offers a clean video signal output and not fighting for CPU resources or relying on poor video transcoding. I don’t care about wireless too, AirLink was never reliable for me and most of my PCVR games are static cockpit simulators.

What happened to all the other VR headsets?

Is PSVR2 the better option?
