It does not matter at this point in the game. If Microsoft only sold their initial consoles in North America they would have also still sold out a million consoles. This stage of the game its all about supply. Neither has enough supply to meet demand yet. I will be more intersted to see the total tally at the end of March then again in January 2015. I'm very very impressed it's selling so well based on all the anti Microsoft attitude in the forums but it goes to show that Core gamers and these forums are NOT the real word.
Based on the excitment so far and energy I see from folks around me, I'm revising how well I think its gonna do.
If your wondering I own a Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii U. Already picked up my PS4 Midnight on launch from Best Buy. They actually had some extra there when I got there around 12:30 so I lucked out. I hope to grab an Xbox One if I can find one sometime soon. So far everywhere I called around its sold out. Loving Assassins Creed 4 on my PS4 in the meantime.
