Japan and UK are nearly always spot on. America too about a month after the weekly chart goes up and adjustments are made. Rest of the world including the eu not so much

But after PS4 won NPD in March with the release of Titanfall, where VGC gave the Xbox One a confortable win, people started becoming more inclined to use Amazon. Since it has been right since then in getting the winner. But once Amazon get it wrong it will be forgotten again until it get another streak of having it right. |
People won't abandon Amazon quite so readily. If the month Amazon gets it wrong it has Xb one and PS4 very close in the monthly rankings it just means we will now the limitations of Amazon's reliability. If the following month the Amazon gap is large then we can still be very be confident that the front running console will win NPD. Amazon will probably never be 100% accurate when there gap is small.
The Order at 6 only Majora's mask is ahead aside from gift cards.
Xb one reappears in the top 20. I expect both consoles to drop a notch in the next montly update.

UK is a bit spotty. Thnigs have gone quite under/over at times. The only country that is highly accurate is Japan week to week because local trackers freely publish numbers and weekly and VGC basically averages the locally published numbers.

The Order is number 5!
If the order can beat the DLC infested Evolve in sales, that'd be awesome.

impossible to say really. we will never know if the PS4 would be lower if it were not for The Order.
That said, PS4 performing similiar to January so I would lean towards your opinion.
Also the volume is impossible to tell, the consoles sell the more cards people are going to buy with them. So they could all be rising but remaining relatively equal. I doupt this because there is nothing that should be making the XOne rise at this point in time.
psn- tokila
add me, the more the merrier.

what i have noticed is the xbox one has distanced itself from the ps4 quite nicely on the lead up to the order.

You don't typically expect hardware sales to go up until after a game releases. With prime shipping I suppose Amazon could get a HW boost before launch, but only 48hrs before launch I would think.
Still over all for this game I don;t expect more than a 20% increase in sales week over week. This isn't a highly popular established franchise so people should not expect all that much of a hardware effect form it, even if it does get great reviews and good word of mouth.
