Going by Amazon they lost September. So far this gen, I dont think amazon has once been wrong about who takes NPD's.

Also of those 4 advantages you listed, I think only the 4k blu-ray (tv) one is right.

all ps4 exclusives are delayed. so xbox has gears and  froza, sony again has no (big) excluive titel this holiday
yes, bigger than cod. MS has BF1, Titanfall, Fifa and Madden. Sony only has CoD
the ps4 slim is more powerful? it does not even have 4k or any other benefit over the original ps4. more powerful? if you care about power, you go for the ps4 pro. not a single person will choose a ps4 slim over xbox one s due to being slightly more powerful. they will go for the ps4 pro or don't care about it
better games in 2017? well 2017 exlusive lineup for xb1 and ps4 is on par or personal preference.

The biggest thing to come out this year, from Sony, is The Last Guardian, Will Gravit Rush 2 also launch this year ? But they will have Pro + Slim + PS VR + Price cut to clear stock + Cod and probably FFXV's marketing deal.

Microsoft has TitanFall2's marketing rights ? I did not knew that.  They have Recore, Forza, Gears and the timed exclusivity of Dead Rising, will State of Decay launch this year ? Im completely off from games release dates. Taking away Forza, which they have every year. It is a pretty normal holidays season for Microsoft.

The thing is that Gran Turismo got delayed to  2017. Gran Turismo is, atleast, in the same level of sales potential than Gears of War. But Forza and Recore are not  big like those 2, and Dead Rising is a timed exclusive, the other ones did well but not blockbusters.

 

As for the PS4, if the FFXV's launch is in the December's NPD, that will be enought to make PS4, after the Pro's launch, to take the lead for December. The difference of sales between PS4 and XBox One versions of Japanese games is very big, even bigger for JRPGs.
