Interesting. Doesn't sound likely but I would be happy either way.

amazon is very powerful in retail.

awful news for Sony and ninty if true....

Lol, hardly.  Right now is a very poor time to purchase the Xbox brand, as it has diminished going into this gen, and sales prove it.  I really wish people would get off this whole "a company has much  more money than another, so obviously it will win" mentality.  By now, people should realize that means jack all to consumers.  MS has already thrown tons of money at the One and ads for it, yet that hasn't changed anything.  What is Amazon doing the same going to change?  Amazon has spent money on many other sites/businesses that have failed.  It's the same as MS throwing money at their products, it doesn't change people's minds if they don't want a product, like Zune and their tablets.

Edit: The bold is also the reason people thought the One would be more powerful, as Sony couldn't afford it, and why the One could easily take the US and UK.  Look at how that turned out.
