You guys only use Amazon as an indicator who be number 1 on NPD? I use all 3 retailers. Bestbuy, Gamestop, and Amazon. If one console is consistently selling more than the other across all 3 retailers for the duration of the month, then you can pretty much guess who will be number 1. But if it's only selling more at one retailer then it could go either way. When PS4 was outselling XB1 all year it was on top of the charts, or always above XB1, consistently across all 3 retailers. Currently PS4 is on top at GS-

It's been that way since the bundle went on sale. At BB it goes back and forth between the two. But currently 2 PS4 SKU's are # 2 and 3-

At Amazon the GTAV bundle is still out of stock so sales are going to lean more towards BB and GS. So Amazon is not a true indicator in this case.


Amazon has a monthly sellers list. So yes, it is an indicator.
