I seriously doubt the Xbox One will ever overtake the PS4 in sales, North America or Global. If the numbers were closer during the first 6 months following launch, it could be possible. However, the PS4 has continued to outsell the One despite game releases, etc. Microsoft has announced a price drop (without a Kinect), but Sony has also given advance notice that the PS4 will see a $50 price drop for the winter holiday sales.

If the PS4's sales performance continues to overshadow the One until the November holidays this year, it will be almost impossible for the One to ever pull ahead. Any finance marketing textbook would agree with that assessment based on the numbers.
