Because it was?

The first weeks of the price cut were great then it dropped off big time. I dont know whats so hard to ubderstand about that. 

Not to mention GameStop is one retailer. Best Buy and Wal Mart are massive electronics sellers as well and I know exactly zero about what they sell. I dont and have never claimed that i speak for industry sales.

No I find it hard to believe Xbone came back in 1 week and outsold PS4 with 2 weeks, and then falling back so hard that it was outsold by 70k in the end. Gamestop should be fairly representative of the overall market. The effect of the pricecut isnt gonna be exclusive to 1 retailer.

What is unbelievable? 

Price cut was announced long before the release of the kinectless xbox. A lot of people held back until it was released. A huge spike is expected. Common sense, really.
