Holiday 2024 Sales and Discounts Tracker

[GamingCJ]

Did a similar thing with Walmart: https://www.walmart.com/search?q=gaming+consoles&facet=retailer_type:Walmart||fulfillment_method_in_store:In-store&sort=best_seller

The top sellers are:
1) Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Switch
2) Fortnite PS5 Digital
3) Fortnite PS5 Disc
4) Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Switch OLED model
5) Xbox Series S 512GB

Your link (now) shows the 2 PS5 Fortnite bundles on top for me.
I'd generally be cautious with the Walmart bestseller lists, they seem to be broken often.

Wonder why Nintendo had such limited quantities for the bundles.

 

[Broseph]

Sony finally tryna get those Fortnite goons on PS4 to upgrade

 

[Brazilian77]

Wonder why Nintendo had such limited quantities for the bundles.

I think what is limited is online purchases of the discounted bundles. See Welfare's post above (e.g. in store they can still be acquired). I won't try to speculate why the online stock is limited.

I am pretty sure Nintendo wants to send as much stock as possible to the US as they have a 12.5M target to reach, which already is hard even with US contributing as much as possible on the holiday season. Supply should be set to mostly match demand.

PS: I don't know how these retailers are managing a 75$ unofficial discount. I am guessing Nintendo has some deal with Target, Best buy and Walmart. At least I would be surprised if the retailer share of a standard NSW is above 25% to allow for a 25% price reduction (but someone who knows better what share of the prices go to platform holders and retailers can educate me on the matter)

Not sure about this, whenever I have looked at the page (on both mobile and PC, and setting the website delivery location to different random places), one or two of the Switch bundles are on top.

Anyways, here is the Target version of this:

Gaming Consoles : Target

Shop Target for gaming consoles you will love at great low prices. Choose from Same Day Delivery, Drive Up or Order Pickup plus free shipping on orders $35+.

I think the game is out of stock on Amazon US

 

[Neo_arcadia7]

Worked BF yesterday & definitely sold a lot of PS5 & some NSW, no Xbox HW left the store.

SW wise Mario party jamboree & Astro bot were selling like crazy. Surprised to see interest in Stellar Blade but sold out of that quickly. DD2 was selling pretty well.

I think Astro and Spider-Man 2 are the two games the younger generation gets together with their new console.

If you search for "gaming" instead of "gaming consoles", the consoles show up in a completely different order on Walmarts bestseller list.
I really think it's unreliable. The Target list is also dubious, unfortunately.

 

[Welfare]

Walmart has broken best seller lists. The Target one should be accurate.

 

[Broseph]

Interestingly enough GoW:R looks like one of those evergreen sellers on PSN but for physical retailers, not as much where it seems like Astro Bot, Spider-Man, sports titles, Stellar Blade, and FF7 Rebirth did the best on online physical retailers

[Lelouch0612]

Really pleased with how Astro Bot is selling.

Great showings for the PS5 and the Switch this November. Next report will be extra exciting.

 

[Ronin]

PlayStation is flying of shelves in Brazil.

It used to be one of the last Xbox strong markets, it's gone.

Only during 360 because Of piracy

PlayStation is flying of shelves in Brazil.

It used to be one of the last Xbox strong markets, it's gone.

I don't have any numbers, what I'm going to say is just based on Amazon numbers and online presence (physical store accounts on Instagram, channels that promote game promotions on X, Telegram, Whatsapp, etc...), but here on Brazil, the PlayStation has a bundle (physical and digital) with R&C and Returnal, and I have the impression that this bundle is VERY popular.

This bundle is everywhere.

At the moment, Amazon Brazil shows:

PlayStation 5 DE R&C and Returnal bundle: +20k

PlayStation 5 R&C and Returnal bundle: +8k

 

[opaidiota]

Really pleased with how Astro Bot is selling.

I'm happy for Team Asobi.
The game is too good!

I think it's safe to say that Sony has already given the green light to the next Astro game.
If Sony knows what they're doing, the next game will be a PS6 launch game.

Nintendo Switch MK8 Deluxe bundles back in stock at the normal price at most retail stores.

 

[ESCK Swiss]

UPDATE

Added a few games for CYBERWEEK, overall a very sucessfull Black Friday week for many games on Switzerland's biggest online electronics retailer.
A few points to note:

• The PS5 fornite bundles are still available, it's being pushed in every Swiss retailer online. It's probably going to be the default bundle until Christmas
• Similarly, ASTRO BOT is also being pushed everywhere. Almost sold out on Digitec
• No discounts on any Nintendo Switch bundle on Digitec which is a surprise, it doesn't look like Nintendo is pushing for the console to sell in Switzerland this Holiday season. Games are selling well though (just bought myself Mario Party Jamboree discounted in another retailer).

Fortnite bundle seems to be the main holiday bundle.

Strange that Sony isn't pushing the promotions in Europe further.

 

[Neo_arcadia7]

Seems like PS5 is taking the holiday at least in the states possible, everywhere else as well excluding Japan.

Bummed Xbox didn't do much for HW discounts I wanted to grab a XSX but guess I will wait.

Maybe a OLED 4K monitor instead.
