This thread is priceless. Why use the wishlist, which has constantly been switching around the entire year? Why not at least use the Bestsellers list? Of course, that's only for the hour and will have Xbox on top, as its in stock. I just wish Amazon would fix the Bestsellers for the year, which is really the only Amazon list that matters, since the PS4 was at #6 before it was completely taken off for whatever reason.


Xbox has been in the top of the Bestsellers list ever since that first restock last week, a thread has already been made(http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=173849&page=1#) . And for that Bestsellers for the year, there's at least the Battlefield PS4 bundle is in there.

Yes, but for whatever reason the PS4 Launch SKU, which was #6 for the year, AND the PS4 Standard SKU, which I believe was #36 the last time I looked, was taken down.  In other words, for the entire year, the PS4 has outsold the Xbox One on Amazon, as well.  Again, I have no idea why it was taken off.

Of course, you could look at WW Amazon sites and get the same impression. 

Amazon UK - PS4 #3; One #33, #56

Amazon CA - PS4 #1, #26,#31; One #9 (outsold by the Ouya)

Amazon DE - PS4 #2, #5, #55; One #25

Amazon FR - PS4 #27, #30, #70; One #40

So, if you go by the numbers that actually mean anything, the PS4 is ahead on all of them.


Do those really mean something when consoles sell tens of millions more in the US?

Tens of millions? Where in the world did you get that number? The PS4 sold ~1.2 million in the US and ~900k everywhere else. Last time I checked, 300k =/= 10's of millions.

Anyways, the thread should renamed to "XBox One most wished for video game item on Amazon *US*". It should also be noted that the wish list rankings are not even close to being representative of Amazon's overall rankings.

you should re-read that. I said CONSOLES sell tens of millions more in the US. Not Xbox One and PS4 specifically.
