| superchunk said: It wasn't every "sold through to consumer" crap. It was sold to retailer. MS wouldn't know how many sold to consumers until NPD and others state so and NPDs estimates just released tonight. By Dec 1, MS shipped just over 2m. Those will sell through before 2014 hits but, they are already starting to have stock availability in retail. I went to five websites today. Gamestop, Best Buy, Walmart, Costco and Amazon. Three of them had bundles you could buy now and get Xbones this coming week. They were forced bundles, which suggest limited supply, but still supply. PS4 had nothing at any retailer. They are truly sold out and are selling as they come in immediately. Xbone simply does not have the long-standing demand PS4 does. Its $100 too much. PS4 won't start to show retail availability until January. Xbone will be relatively easily found at retail next week. |
Great post :)
