Still saw plenty of PS4 at my local Walmart yesterday when I went to buy a new tree. Either people don't want a PS4 or they shipped a shit ton.

This was at around 2PM.

Considering that the PS4 is lighting up the charts online, yet hasn't sold out, I'm going with some beastly shipments.  And a place like NewEgg, which is hardly the mecca of console sales, has over 10K of them.

I'm with you on this one, it appears that Walmart was, too:

“We’ve increased Black Friday inventory in every category, including hardware bundles,” Wal-Mart senior vice president of Entertainment Laura Phillips said. “We have tripled the amount of PlayStation 4 and other gaming consoles available.”

OOO, nice find.  Yea, definitely big shipments.

On that note, just went to my local NYC BestBuy and Gamestop:

BB: tons of PS4 and X1 stock int he back (more X1), but only X1 left on the floor shelves (PS4 sold out).

GS: PS4 sold out, but tons of X1 bundles all over the floor.
