Black Friday is notoriously hard to track as each retailer has different promotions and very different sales patterns to one another - until you have a full set of data you don't have the full picture. I would be surprised if Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo don't all make some kind of press statement about their Black Friday performances later today so I'd hold off for those before making any firm conclusions on who won or anything like that.

From the limited data we have, we're currently estimating for the USA:

XB1 ~ 725k
PS4 ~ 600k
3DS ~ 300k
WiiU ~ 200k

Reckon we'll get Nintendo today, MS tomo and Sony wednesday.

None of them said anything last year tho so am kinda worried this year they'll continue that trend.

last year they just had launches and there were shortages everywhere. so it was a different situation. i remember they gave numbers 2012 and 2011
