We all know Amazon is big and isn't Gamestop the biggest games retailer in the US? That's domination so far today and the rankings have looked pretty much like that every hour since the PS4 bundles went live.


Amazon is something like 6% for all hardwares sales.

Gamestop is 30% if i'm not wrong.

NPD USA Retailer Marketshare, beginning of the 8th gen (approx. 2013):

Found it :1) GameStop - 30%
2) Wal-Mart - 25%
3) Target - 15%
4) Best Buy - 12%
5) Amazon - 6%
6) Toys R Us - 1%

 

So yeah, it these two show ranking like that, it means the ps4 will win the BF, and probably by a lot of units.

Damn, if that's a true breakdown, then XBO may not stand a chance.  Sure it was ahead of the PS4 on Amazon and Best Buy, but the PS4 has been ahead on Wal-mart and Gamestop everytime I checked this month.  Of course, it also is looking like the PS4 is winning the Black Friday battle on every site, minus Best Buy.  Though, I don't think Best Buy has been updated recently, since the PS4 Black Friday Bundles are nowhere to be seen.

 

That's weird BestBuy seems the most pro-PlayStation of the big retail chains at retail level, it's strange that online would be the opposite.

Anyways from what I've gathered XOne cleaned house on Targets quickly, but the PS4 seems getting sold-out there too but at much slower rate, BestBuy seems to be going more for PS4, Walmart is pretty even and GameStop I've no idea. Online the PS4 seems to be selling more pretty much everywhere.

All in all, I think they will be pretty even for BF, with the XOne edging it out for about 100k-250k for November.
