So if the XBone did outsell the PS4 (in USA) for December doesn't that only mean that Sony couldn't get enough units on to store shelves to meet demand? I just got back from Walmart & just like everyone else reports the Xbone is collection dust on shelves while all the PS4's are sold out.
Celebrate the battle while you can, the war is just starting.

Trackers... Gemarny, US, France, Spain, Portugual, etc... and the rest of the world... just to start.
US: ~2 million
UK: 530k
Germany: 250k
France: > 150k * based in FIFA sales that did over 100k in France for PS4 *
Spain: 134k
Portugual: 21k
3.085k
There are more 40 countries where the PS4 was launched... Xbone just more seven.

Well done sir.
Yeah, finally the last of the holiday months over ! I wish we had january's numbers already :(
So ps4 still leads overall despite retail full of Xbox ones, if I was Microsoft I'd be rather worried I had thought they would have taken the lead in their main territory.

Rockstar's latest snaps Call of Duty's four-year streak atop US retail chart as industry sales shrink by 2%
The industry-tracking NPD Group released its US retail sales figures for December and 2013 as a whole today, marking an end to the Call of Duty series' four-year run atop the annual best-seller charts. The first non-Call of Duty game to claim the top spot since 2008's Wii Play bundle was Grand Theft Auto V.
The changing of the guard isn't entirely surprising, as Rockstar Games' latest open-world crime game launched to the biggest single-day sales in gaming history, breaking a mark previously held (and broken, then held again) by the Call of Duty series. The latest entry in the franchise, Call of Duty: Ghosts, was the second best-selling game of 2013, with Madden NFL 25, FIFA 14, and Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag rounding out the top five.
Despite being dislodged from the top spot on the full-year chart, Call of Duty still earned some bragging rights as Ghosts was the best-selling game of December. It was followed on the monthly chart by its closest competitor in the genre, Battlefield 4, and a trio of more mainstream titles: Just Dance 2014, Madden NFL 25, and NBA 2K14.
As for the industry as a whole, the NPD reported that full-year sales in 2013 were down 2 percent to $12.97 billion. Breaking that number down, new platforms like the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and 2DS helped push hardware sales up 5 percent to $4.26 billion, while software sales slipped 9 percent to $6.12 billion. Accessories (which include Skylanders and Disney Infinity toys, as well as cards loaded with currency for online storefronts), were up 3 percent to $2.6 billion.
Looking at the numbers from just December, overall industry sales were up 2 percent to $3.28 billion. Most of that growth was attributable to hardware, which was up a whopping 28 percent to $1.37 billion. Accessories were also up 4 percent to $631 million, but most of those gains were offset by software sales that dropped 17 percent to $1.28 billion.
Xbox Live director of programming Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb offered some color on those December figures through his Twitter account, saying Xbox One and Xbox 360 were the best-selling consoles of each generation during December. Xbox One sold 908,000 systems, Hryb said, while Xbox 360 moved 643,000.

Yet one of those is sold out everywhere and the other isn't. We all knew these were shipment numbers, only with the state the PS4 is at right now shipped = 99% sold.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
So the X1 beats the PS4 in December. I've already said this a couple weeks ago but I can only imagine how the gaming media is gonna blow this out of proportion.
