Yes... but how much will 10 SKU that could be between 100-300 in the rank would count against the top 20? Probably not much. But I was just saying that Amazon shows 2:1 even though it isn't accurate. But for some reason VGC is showing the same.

Indeed, I am skeptical of the 2:1. Given the relative LTD positions of PS4 and Xb one even 1.5:1 would be rather a large gap for a single week where there isn't a big name exclusive new release. Or some other special deal / price cut.

End of timed deals. Happened a similar gap last year.

True. I guess Sony was smart to end their timed deal before Christmas.

Well can't be sure. But in NPD we will know the result.

The Vita keeps chugging along. I wonder if it will ever best the XBO in any week this year?

Those Vita numbers are overly optimistic.

I'm quite surprised by how the PS4 can sell without being on holidays. And the Vita surprises even more despite the people's pessimism towards it.



ps_wiro on 18 January 2016

PS4 still looking good and those last gen numbers are now really looking sad... I don't think they'll make it another year after this.
