So the XB1 won this month? I surely wasn`t expecting that.

Was a matter of time since there isn't anything major coming to the 360. 

Was there anything that pushed XB1 over the PS4? I don`t recall either side getting anything major...

Witcher marketing deal. Windows 10 news (the articles keep mentioning Xbox One). Better deals. PS4 has a double wammy happening. Sales were front loaded the previous month(s) due to all the games released, some sales are stalled until next month because people are waiting for the Batman bundle.

Microsoft should still be congradulated though. This gives hope for a competitive market in the US if Sony doesn't go for the $100 price cut.

Thanks for the clarifications on the Witcher info. Perhaps that gave it the edge. I would find it funny if one of the reasons the PS4 sold less was because they are waiting for the Batman bundle. I didn`t think something positive would harm earlier sales at least for the month of April, haha...
