So it's safe to assume ps4 is still ahead even after the price cut or we need to keep waiting as to where xbox one will settled?.


It's been two days now and it still hasn't passed PS4 on any of the 3 major retailer charts. Right now PS4 is at 7, down 2 spots. XB1 is at 11. It's real slow climbing the charts. The longer it takes to pass PS4 the more chances that it's going to go down as days go by. I think maby next week we'll see a boost then that's it. The highest it'll get is probably 6.

The advertising on this new price drop has not really hit yet. Numbers will start to change next week more than this week. Every day, this will get harder as the XB1 is working against more days of sales.



It is near the end of the end....

In the hourly it's getting closer, but PS4 moved up 2 spots in the monthly.



According to Amazon, the PS4 is selling less, the X1 is selling the same amount, and the cards are selling more (They use their little green/red arrows as indicators.).
The two former of these make sense to me, but the latter third seems to be constantly variable.



X1 getting closer on the hourly charts, but do note that the monthly rankings are not the average of the hourly rankings since the amount sold per hour varies. The PS4 went up to #8 while the X1 is still at #16.

If you saw my post just prior to this, I think we can agree that this is not surprising. According to Amazon, items are moving up and down the charts, but the X1 sales have held constant. While PS4 "fell" to #7, that's still a place higher than the monthly spot.



shit i think xbox might pass ps4 and then we're all going to look like idiots lol



PS4 down another place. X1 could overtake very soon.



I don't understand why Xb one isn't ahead on the hourlies already. The new price has been in effect for 2 full days now, which means the hourly chart will have flushed through any sales data from when Xb one was $399. If this is reflecting how a permanent $350 Xb one will sell through the year this is not terribly good for Xb one.

Given for the monthly we have PS4 at 8 and Xb one at 16 right now, and PS4 is still ahead on the hourlies I think it's likely that PS4 will win January NPD. Should be close though, being a low sales months generally. Might be 30 or 40K between them. Feb will be interesting being the first full non-holiday month with $350 Xb one in effect.

Where is the New 3DS on Amazon. Its dominating everywhere else.... Just seems odd because usually Amazon is on top of the Pre Orders.
