ps also "won" last year november on bestbuy in his district (was no big gap though, if i remeber correctly)
you can't use theire customer demographics to explorate for the fulll market

useful data would be, how ps4 and xbox one doing compared to last year respectively
this data is at least good to show, the lead (whoever wins) won't be as big as last year

The adobe report you posted in the other thread stated something about spending expected to be up 14%, which is nuts.

online spending
not total retail ;)

14% total would be nuts, yes

also to clarify
14% up YoY just on BF
25% up YoY on Thanksgiving
12% up YoY on Cyber Monday expected

~15.5% up YoY for the whole BlackFriday weekend (Thanksgivig - Cyber Monday)

The Thanksgiving increase seemed crazy to me, but so many of the deals started early. With this new trend and the rise of Cyber Monday, tracking the weekend might be the new standard.

i just did the math
total weekend would be up 15,5% according to theire estimate under the assumption that saturday and sunday won't be any big impact on the change...

6.45 billion 2014 total online spend (Thanksgiving, BF and Cyber Monday)
7.45 billion 2015 total online spend (Thanksgiving, BF and Cyber Monday)

*not that this is not pure console or electronics, but all goods

I guess the great outstanding question is how much of this is purely additional sales and how much of this is the transition from brick and mortar retail to online sales.

Things are definitely looking better for the PS4 this November/BF.

Yep, and no arogant grenberg posting a picture of ps4s. So ps4 did good and I expect them to win.

I think Greenberg has been told to pull his head in. If MS folks behave arrogant with 15M ltd vs 30M ltd they just make things worse. You can only afford to be a dick if you're winning.

I remember some horrible pr from Sony last year saying something like they were #1 in Amazon for an hour or something like that in their NPD statement. Guess even the big corporations are watching Amazon like we are.

Source?

If that's true then that's really bad.
