Looks like X1 ACU bundle entered the yearly chart and it's at #43 already!

Since the PS4 is at 4 (vanilla) and 27 (Destiny bundle) ACU at 43 (the next console on the yearly chart), does that mean that BF did very little to close the gap and PS4 still has a huge lead? X1 also has 71 and 76 (rounding out the top 100), but how do these correlate to actual sales figures?  

If we equate total X1 ACU bundle sales to the Amazon item at 42 on the yearly charts, it sold ~290,000 units in November (assuming Amazon is a repsentative sample size). That's some heavy lifting by one new SKU.


Well let's not forget the sales of the AC:U w/Kinect, CoD:AW, and Sunset OD which also all sold out in November... But the TItanfall bundle was really popular for a few months yet this has blown past it in a day! And now Amazon has it on Cyber Monday sale for $329.99 again so more sales...

Since the other X1 SKUs are separated by about 30 positions and were on sale before November (X1+Kinect at 71) or are not even on the top 100, it can probably be assumed that their sales were orders of magnitude lower than the ACU SKU. In essence, we can most likely say that the ACU bundle accounted for almost all November X1 sales and then decide how representative of a sample the Amazon charts are for all retailers.
