pos	title	platforms	ranks in top 100
1	Just Dance 2015	Wii, 360, PS4, Xb1, PS3, Wii U	8, 79
2	Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare	PS4, X1, 360, PS3, PC	11, 17, 33, 59
3	SSB 3DS	3DS	12,
4	SSB U	Wii U	19,
5	GTAV	PS4, PS3, X1, 360	22, 54
6	Pokemon OR/AS	3DS	27, 29
7	Dying Light	PS4, Xb1, PC	32, 68
8	Minecraft	360, PS3, Xb1, PS4, PC, PSV	39, 57
9	Far Cry 4	PS4, Xb1, PC	41, 63
10	inFamous: Second Son	PS4	42,

Platforms column is arranged from highest ranked platform to lowest, at least for the platforms that have the game in the top 100. don't have all platforms show up in the op 100. It's pretty likely that inFamous won;t be in the tope 10, because even though it is 10th highest ranked game, it's only on one platform. And TLOU (PS3+PS4) and CoD Ghosts (loadsa platforms) are not much lower in the rankings. Halo MCC is also right on inFamous's heels, so margin for error means MCC could easily be ahead of infamous across all retailers.

Pos	Console	Ranks in top 100
1	PS4	9,
2	Xb1	18,
3	Wii U	53,
4	3DS	N/A
5	PSV	N/A

I have a hard time believing 3DS will be less than WIi U. So it seems Amazon is good for home console hardware rankings, but not so much for hand helds. I sure hope Wii U is ahead of 360. Feb should be interesting as PS3 could wind up in the Amazon top 100 for the month.
