Hasn't there been multiple threads discussing exactly the same thing? Its been reported multiple times that PS4s are sold out in stores whereas many stores have lots of X1s in stock.

In the Amazon Best Seller list the XOne just passed the PS4 (14th and 24th respectively)

Irrelevant and anecdotal.

I have seen one at retail since launch in a Best Buy. I have seen multiple PS4's, even bought and resold a few for good profit. Does this mean Xbone demand must be through the roof? Surely if I could find some PS4's just sitting on shelves, it must have real low demand.

Of course both of those statements are a load of crap. Maybe I waltzed into those stores right after a shipment happened to come in, or maybe this area just isn't getting much Xbone stock. Overall its launch and both consoles are selling great, who cares about anything else.


Lol could have just put irrelevant and anecdotal

i saw my first ps4 in the wild today!

...but i also saw a ton of xbones. retail seemed really stuffed,.. i have to wonder if MS will be able to ship any consoles to retail in the first few months of spring.

@episteme: Holy freakin' shit. Why so goddamn many? Surely they could've gauged demand better. I mean, this should last for months.


I guess they overestimated damand. It pretty much only sold well one week after launch. I guess Germany will be PS4 land.

I've never seen a PS4 in a store, but you can find XBOX ONEs everywhere. Even the Wii U was almost sold out at that store, only some Monster Hunter Packs at 339 or 349 Euros were left.

Don't look at the Bestsellers for the year, it may make you cry. 

Seriously, though, Bestsellers for the year is really the only thing relevant on Amazon.  Of which, PS4 is #6 and Xbox One is #18.

Dude are people still making these threads? Its been obvious since the Xbox One came out that more supply has been put in the US.


No its obvious demand is lower LOL.

That's nothing...
Here a picture from Germany last week (sorry for the crappy quality):

HOLY HELL!  Now, I really doubt that 2M number from MS.    I mean, I'm sure they have gotten there by now, but when they announced it it was only for shipped and couldn't have reflected actual sold through numbers.

This means we need numbers.

You'll never forget your first, lol.  Actually, today was my first, too.  To be fair, it was my first seeing an Xbox One, at least in a Walmart.  Saw a couple in a Gamestop, before, but that was about it.
