The funny thing about you mentioning those two items is they are the epitome of supply constraint in local terms, and of course you knew obviously that when I was referring to Amazon = NPD I was referring to Hardware (and that's been every month since Jan = Amazon PS4 over XB1 = NPD PS4 over XB1.

Vita was over 3DS on Amazon, but not NPD
|
Now you want to bring in handhelds? Okay. 3DS has been hugely available easily everywhere for eons, while Vita has been DOA for so long that getting the new one was not exactly easy. I still haven't seen a restocked new Vita SKU with my own eyes.
Supply constrained items DO sell more online, due to people not wanting to jack with searching 50 stores to find what they're looking for.
Neither PS4 nor XBO are, or have been, supply constrained for a loooooong time now. The $399 SKU is everywhere.
In fact, IF the $399 SKU were selling well, and selling out of many retail outlets, you'd expect Amazon XB1 numbers to really show that bump, right? But there it is, lower than the Titanfall SKU that's been languishing since March.
XBO loses June, by a closer margin than May for sure, but it still loses easily.

I see many time ps3 outselling xbox360 in Amazon but not in NPD

Yep, many times ps3 skus of desired configuration are poorly stocked in Walmart/etc. No surprise because 360 dominated the us for 7th gen.
