I did remove the points from the November XBO Fallout 76 bundle which will be counted as preorders for November (it does not change things much).

Looks like #1 Switch, #2 XB1, #3 PS4. 

But XB1 and PS4 are so close, I wouldn't be surprised if they swapped places in the final NPD results, especially when you consider how much the XB1 was wildly swinging around the chart in October.  It will be interesting to see if the tool still gets the order right anyway.
