I think you're in for a shock come January.

No...Sorry the momentum is just too strong now in the U.S. I would be prepared to say that I am wrong only if Sony dip below the xone s price point.. But that is about it. Like I said Novemeber will be a clear winner for ps4 but it will not remain the prefered console due to its significant price diff. Most mums and dads in addition to budget minded people (the majority of console buyers) will opt fo a much more affordable slim variant of both consoles.  That is pretty much it.

You sound just like the Xbox fans during holiday 2013, when the PS4 only lost because of stock shortages. Just like with the Pro, now, they were ignoring the reason why, talking about momentum helping XBO claim the US. Where are we, now? The PS4 has an over 1.2M lead in the US and when XBO has it largest exclusive launch, aside from Halo, and with people waiting for the Pro, it leads to a less than 100K lead for one month. Less than a 280K gap for the last 4 months.  The gap for these past four months is most likely going to be wiped out in Nov. Dec MAY see a small XBO lead, but that's far from guaranteed. January we should go back to normal. PS4 winning most months, with a few XBO wins here or there.
