Gaf are using comments about revenue being almost static YoY to speculate PS4 at being ~174k

Yet if the numbers were from 1st March that would mean VGC would have Xbox One undertracked...

I don't have any problem with it, I just find it odd that we finally have some estimates of xbox one numbers aside from vgchartz.  Still I expected a bit more than 12m.

If this is true, at least it's very close and it's still anyone ballgame.

So amazon finally lost a prediction?

Nope. Amazon had PS4 and Xb one too close to all, and considering the two Xb one skus to the one PS4 sku you'd have to say Amazon was suggestive of Xb one winning. So really Amazon was right, again, depite what seems to be most people being very surprised by the Xb one win. Except for smart people like me who thought Xb one was a good chance to win.

No. We are using the units sold for the 18th month combined for PS3 and 360 is the same than combined this month for PS4 + Xbone.

I did the math right... no revenue... unit based.

Wow XB1 beat ps4 without new software. Uh oh, the tide is starting to turn in the US

Wait til June. 

@ OP

Completely forgot about NPD.  Congrats to XBO.  Those continued deals are having somewhat of an effect.

Well, I didn't expect xbox to win but I'm not delusional to think that xbox doesn't have a chance, on the contrary they always had a chance unlike Wii U.  I'm glad that amazon still maintain their credibility.  Looking forward for May numbers.

Could the momentum carry on into at least may, and X1 might just talk half the year in npd's (Apr, May, Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec).

Definitely could see it taking May, thanks to the Batman Bundle.  However, if the PS4 gets a cut to $299 this year, I wouldn't really count on any other month.  Outside of Halo month, of course.
