Amazon has definitely been exceptional about placing the console leaders.

Still, if the Amazon data seems accurate (eg : GTAV Bundle > AC Bundle > Random PS4s > Random X1s) is accurate as a normal sales order going forward, then PS4 will win December easily.

I'm thinking narrow victory for X1 in November, and moderate victory for PS4 in December. Overall wash for Nov/Dec gap-wise.

The thing is though, why would the sales ratios go back to normal in December? The X1 price cut is still in effect and if they manage to keep up the supply I don't see much reason why December should play out differently from November.

Unless of course everyone who wanted an X1 in US already has one by now.

Well, what I'm saying is that according to Amazon, when both were available (PS4 GTAV and X1 ACU), the PS4 was selling more.

How long can it keep that up? Who knows, it ran out of stock too fast to know for sure.

Stock should be replenished soon, then we'll know :)

I don't believe that the GTA bundle sold much faster than ACU. At least not based on Amazon hourly charts. X1 bundle was available earlier and naturally had its sales spike earlier. Then PS4 came in and had its spike. Now the sales die off a bit and X1 reclaims the throne. So you cannot accurately predict which sold more the last couple of days. Simply because there was no comparison of how fast X1 sold before.

We will have a better chart when the weekly rankings hit tomorrow.
