Ok, first off I know it's just one retailer but Amazon's best sellers is probably the best tool from the biggest online retailer that is reliable and available to the public. It should be a great indicator of sales that is regularly updated.

Now I read that GameStop (think is was GameStop anyway) reported that the the $399 X1's where flying off the selves so I took to Amazon just to see how that matches up with its reports.

Right now the consoles are ranked;

X1 Titanfall package - 56th

$399 UnKinected X1 - 43rd

PS4 with Desting - 4th

PS4 - 7th

If sales reflect the Amazon rankings then MS surely must be panicking right now. They just came off the back of a great E3 showing and released a console that competes with the PS4 on price and yet Amazon shows that they have not made much progress to denting PS4's momentum. What can MS do next?

The even more worrying thing is what is currently outselling the $399 X1 on Amazon. PS TV sit at 11th, $80 PS headset at 30th and PS TV bundle at 40th.

Considering the USA is MS's strongest region, the figures will only look worse for them in other regions. Should we be worried? Will the $399 sales pick up?

I mean.. Surprised?

Why buy something online when you can just go to a store and pick it up

Destiny system seller for one console. But aren't these charts updated hourly? Although I don't think a lot wil change and PS4 will be top system in US by a fair margine.

To be honest, Amazon doesn't really indicate anything.

i guess amazon as a whole are fucked then. 

They really have to find a way to make 360 owners dissatisfied.

To be fair, the Titanfall bundle charted in the 40s-60s for the last several weeks. The Kinectless One recently moved in next door. Should still boost X1 sales, but not to gangbusters levels.

...seriously?

Best Buy and Gamestop are offering major trade in deals on old consoles towards the purchase of an X1, I think a lot of people are going that route instead of Amazon. While I do expect a jump in sales for X1 i really dont expect anything huge until they start pushing Halo stuff this year around the holidays with Master Chief collection and next year when Halo 5 drops.

Sunset Overdrive and Quantum Break look awesome so far but dont think they are going to be system sellers.
