Hardware numbers were very surprised for this month, i didn’t expet that. Hope we can see hardware numbers for the next months too, would be very nice!
This just shows why Sony is the King of the Video Game World right now. Will Nintendo usurp Sony’s throne with the Nintendo Switch!? Find out on the next episode of Dragon Ball Z Kai! lol
is this a good thing or a bad thing for xbox and nintendo?
