Yes it is



Damn... Tax season be selling consoles like mad.



Interestingly on Bestbuy the PS4 $299 1TB slim (and XB1 $249 + 3 months game pass) are now both selling a bit better than Switch. A first since last black friday $199 promotion.

Probably because of the PSVR deal in the case of PS4.

yup its gonna be interesting, switch was a far top of the list at gamestop, and best buy in december.  what really surprises me is, why isn't the ps4 battle front bundle ahead of the regular ps4 slim, that just show unappealing the bundle is.

Huh, that's funny. Even though you admit that Switch was at the top of not just Amazon, but also GameStop and Best Buy during December, you still thought that PS4 would be ahead by 400k.

1.1 million switch

1.5 million ps4

1.2 xbone.

And not just that, you were also proclaiming how useless Amazon was at the end of December because it (correctly) predicted a Switch win, which you couldn't believe.

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=8677741

But now, you say that December was a solid win for Switch at all of the retailers.

You have just admitted outright that your predictions are based on wishful thinking rather than any sort of evidence. What other explanation is there, considering how you thought PS4 would win up until the results actually arrived, even though by your own admission, none of the retailers backed that up?
