Well Amazon was just about the only reliable source we had leading up to Black Friday. Unless you count your factless "predictions", based only what you HOPED would happen. Tell me, have you gone through this whole thread without mentioning when PS4 was on top of Amazon charts or doing well on it throughout this whole thread? 

 

Obvbiously, in your eyes Amazon would become credible again as soon as PS4 is doing well on it!

In the monthly's  XB1s #5 and PS4 1tb #9, so online at amazon (5% of the US market?) the xb1 is ahead.

However we heard that online only recieved so many units, and most where given to B&M shops.

In this case I dont think Amazon is as representative as it usally is.

B&M always get more units than Amazon.

No way of knowing really, it averaged about ~50k/week in Oct and the $199 price cut for BF week had been known since late October so there is a good chance that sales were relatively low in the first 3 weeks of the month.

The first three weeks of the month is one thing, but I was asking about the year (which is obvious that it has done fine).

 

I was under the impression that he was talking about this month.

Xbox S “This item is only available from third party sellers”. Now down to #4. Guess that’s it. It had a good run.

How is it Fluff to sell the most units on a single day in the history of Playstation consoles?

That is just an objective mathematical fact.

Don't get me wrong that's great for them. I just mean they said the same thing last year "best Black Friday ever". Everyone was going nuts that combined with pro launch I saw people predicting 2 million or more for November 2016 npd. Turns out it only did 1.1 million which was down from 1.5+ million for November 2015.

 

  I just notice being in a lot stocks that when a company has a bad piece of news or info dropping they make sure to throw out a bunch of good news to go with it. Obviously winning worldwide is much more important but loosing a holiday month in a consoles biggest market isn't good either.

They were talking about worldwide Black Friday sales at this time. I fell in the trap believing they were just talking about US until they make another PR specifying the scale.
