I don't bloody know any more. All I know is I never saw it with the XB1s or the Pro. Both of those console slipped down the charts and I certainly never saw any of them just up 20+ places while they were out of stock.

Nintendo has the habit of releasing their preorders in little jolts, never enough to actully satisfy demand. Microsof/Sony don't do this - they just put all of them up for preorder, untill its gone. In a sense, they ARE actually pinning their console on the charts artificially for advertisement, not by manipulating the algorithm, but by outplaying it.

What? No they're not. The console has to sell consistantly for it to stay in the charts so it's a fair representation of its popularity.
