It's also been #1 at Gamestop online and at Best Buy.(not 100% sure about Best Buy since their chart updates are random) I do think that the consoles will sell equally. I say a 50k difference between the winner and loser, which on Black Friday month is a statistical tie. Microsoft would need to outsell the PS4 2:1 for all of its price cuts and bundles to be worth it. I can't imagine MS would be happy selling only 50k more than the PS4 in a month where they literally did every single thing they could. Price Cut. Free Games. Bundles. It's make or break for the Xbox One right now. This holiday is possibly the last chance it has to make a turnaround and outsell the PS4. |
Yeah, the measures MS had to take in order to go toe-to-toe with the PS4 are really huge. Meanwhile, Sony just kept patient and sent out huge shipments of PS4s to each retailer for Black Friday. The probem with MS's strategy is that it is not sustainable nor efficient. What about from January to end of October? Heck, an X1 victory in December is even less likely than a November victory. You cannot rely on just 2 of 12 months, especially when you offer huge discounts and deals during those two months.
