Something for sure is that there have been some mega sales for home consoles.

I think its not yet finished for September as in Europe, there are many people who just buy a console for FIFA mostly, and there are a couple of next gen only features and game modes. I think we could see 200k PS4 and over 100k X1 (both global) for the week it launches.

200k for PS4 is too less, even Infamous: Second Son boosted it past 200k. I think it will be 400k+, maybe even 600k+.

Do you know I was referring to FIFA, not Destiny. I've looked at madden's boost and that's around 100k for each console, so 2009 for the more popular FIFA does seem conservative. But 600k plus on one console? At this rate there will be stock shortages again lol but home consoles will be booming again.

Ok, I don't think FIFA will boost PS4 by much, as a lot of the audience is already on PS4. Still 200k+ seems about right for the FIFA boost.

And XB1 wil be boosted above 100k in FIFA week, but not due to that game.

X1 one spot ahead of the PS4 in Amazon hourly charts, but the Destiny SKU is still #7. Technically, the PS4 is still outselling the X1 by more than 2 to 1.

There is no way on Earth you could know that unless you've seen Amazon sales number. You don't know if the gap between pos. 6 and 7 is 1 or 1 million

Oh my goodness! =O The Xbox One base unit SKU on Amazon's hourly charts has actually clawed its way two spots above the base PS4 at spot number 13!

...I mean, it's still getting its butt kicked considering the PS4 Destiny bundle is at spot 7, while the Xbox One's only other charting SKU is at spot 73, meaning total units being moved are still heavily in the PS4's favor, but still! A statue should be built to mark this historic event, given I don't think I've seen it happen... well, I don't remember ever seeing it happen.

It's still not beating PS4 because of the Destiny bundle... the basic PS4 is down because more people are buying the Destiny bundle instead, but still the free game deal has helped XB1 must have boosted sales a lot.

MS had to do this deal to make sure PS4 doesn't beat XB1 by 3 to 1 in September NPD .  Will probably still beat it by a good 1.5~2.0 to 1.

But now it's changed. Now both PS4 SKUs are ahead of the XBO SKU, so it's outselling it by more than 2 to 1.
