Seems so. Of course, I doubt the sales are that far apart. Unlike on Gamestop, where there are two SKUs of PS4 above the 1st XBO SKU. It's also ahead at Best Buy. On Walmart, the XBO is ahead, but considering the PS4 has 4 SKUs (currently #2, #3, #7, and #8) vs XBO's 3 (currently #1, #4, and #9) in the Top 10, I think sales are either nexck and neck or the PS4 may have a slight lead.
After last Xmas season, I'm actually surprised at how well the $399 PS4 with 1 game is holding up against a $349 XBO with 2 games. I guess this at least let's MS know what they need to do to get ahead of the PS4, now. Either be $100 cheaper or be $50 cheaper and pack in 3 games and 2 controllers. I actually think it would cost them less to just drop to $299, then to pack in all of that. Especially if they are 3rd party games.
