From hearing multiple people at this point brace yourselves for a XBO > PS4 in the U.S. Week 2/3 numbers. Mainly because it looks like Microsoft has more XBO available than Sony has PS4 in US. Could be because Sony is focusing on Europe, not sure. But It could be a 2 to 1 or even 3 to 1 week of Black friday if I'm correct..
Not sure if you all were able to see the pictures I sent a couple pages back but stock here was about 30-50 XBO for Black Friday and 6 PS4's

at least here in germany i can say that microsoft doesn't really seem to have many consoles (i expect a very low launch week, xbox isn't huge here and it was still sold out) and big retailers expect to get the first new shipments only in december. so yeah, seems like microsoft has usa as priority probably because of black friday and the week after, europe or at least germany will get the next bunch and sony did the opposite, most consoles to europe to break sales records but not so many consoles for black friday. just read that eurogamer expects around 300k ps4s only for uk so probably 1-1.5m for europe. not much room for black friday in usa then.
one is for sure, the whole gaming industry will have an unbelievable quarter if we look at the revenue. too bad that this doesn't tell us much about the next years and only that with all the social media nowadays, people are more like "i have to have it day one"
