Is the PS4 Slim proving to be a bit of a market failure, relatively speaking?

It's almost like PS4og is already slim that there's really no incentive for people to slim down, and for basically no performance improvement (though quieter and lower power consumption, I assume) there seems to be not much reason to choose slim for a first time, or do a sideways "upgrade" to Slim. And with PS4P around the corner at a really decent price a decent number of people are holding off to get that, hence being #3 in the Sept monthly chart 2 months before PS4P's launch.

And so it also surprises me that Xb one is not the leading on-market sku. I would have thought the delaying effect of PS4P pre-orders would at least put Xb one marginally ahead.

I think it comes to show how strong of an influence COD can have. While UC4 sold fantastically, the COD franchise is undeniably much stronger. If Sony not only bundles COD: IW, but also Modern Warfare Remastered with the slim, that bundle will sell gangbusters.

Cod is much more popular in the USA. Is like Uncharted vs Fifa in the Europe.
