Do I really have to do this? No I don't. Look it up yourself.

Amazon monthly ratings predicted the correct winner of each month since last November. Even the month where X1 won. 12 correct samples in a row is not enough for you?

Not denying that, just pointing out the sales ratio on PS4 "win" months were not inline with amazon rankings.

While for Nov Its X1 PS4 PS4 X1 PS4 X1 on the rankings.  To an open logical mind amazon rankings really dont say much on who will get the ndp "win" for Nov.  its no where near as cut and dry as it was for other months.  

To put it bluntly, based of Amazon Nov rankings we know shit all who will "win" november.  

No one gives a shit about exact ratios. It's about trends. Amazon is showing the trends. Amazon has been showing the trends correctly for a year.

Yes, this time around there are multiple bundles which makes it more wonky but as a general rule(with any sales charts) we can assume that the higher the rankings, the bigger the absolute difference between them. So far we have X1 at #3 and PS4 at #17 and #20. It's not a stretch to assume that even both PS4s combined will not easily match the X1 on #3.
