Considering Sony released a new console 2 weeks ago and from what I've seen of black friday deals, they seem to be better than Xbox one, as well as the majority of the market favouring Sony at this point, it would be embarrasing if it didnt outsell Xbox by at least a 1 mil.

So the question is will ps4 be able to make up the last few months sales gap with X1?

Well, the PS4 doesn't just have Black Friday to boost sales, but also massive Pro preorders. It was over the #5 best-selling video game item on Amazon in Sept., and placed #26 in October. It was also already at #85 in the yearly chart by the end of October, which is the first time I've seen a hardware SKU jump on to the yearly charts like that without being released very early in the year. The Pro's preorders were very good. If the PS4 can at least tie the XBO for BF, then the Pro pre-orders should be more than enough to make up the loss in the YTD gap. At its peak in June, the YTD gap had the PS4 up by 472.5k, while as of the end of October the gap has shrunk to where the PS4 is up by about 206k. That's a loss of 266.5k. To put it in graph terms:

But in terms of LTD, the PS4 is still well in the lead:

 

Last November the PS4 won by 243k units in the U.S. With the Pro, the PS4's lead this month could be even bigger, enough to eliminate whatever hits to its lead it sustained in the previous four months.

According to this data, it is possible in theory for the Xbox One to pass the PS4 in the US for the year this month.  Of course it isn't likely though with the Pro and the Slim together. 



3 hours since last update:

HARDWARE
#01 PS4s UC4 Bundle (same)
#17 XB1s-500gb Battlefield Bundle (down 1)
#18 XB1s-500gb Minecraft Bundle (same)
#29 N3DSXL Lime (up 10)
#37 XB1s-1tb Battflield Bundle (up 6)
#68 PS4 Pro (up 14)
#75 N3DS Mario Black (down 1)
#92 XB1s-1tb Gears Bundle (up 4)

SOFTWARE (pre-orders only)

Nothing at the moment


PS4:
2 in the top 100 / 1 in the top 50 / 1 in the top 20 / 1 in the top 10 / 1 in the top 5
XB1:
4 in the top 100 / 3 in the top 50 / 2 in the top 20 / 0 in the top 10 / 0 in the top 5

The Pro is slowly sneaking up again.



 

The PS5 Exists.

Is it possible for the XBO to sell ≥266.5k more units than the PS4 for the Nov.+Dec. period this year? Maybe. Is it likely? No. The PS4 was beaten in August because MS released the XBO S and Sony had nothing to counter it, and it was beaten in September and October because of Pro preorders cannibalizing PS4 Slim sales. The status quo of PS4>XBO will return starting with this month. There is now nothing to depress PS4 sales anymore.

Microsoft also played the bundle game smartly. They released the Halo 5 slim bundle at the end of August, so some of its momentum leaked into September. In October, the XB1 benefited from the Gears LE bundle, Gears 1TB bundle, and Battlefield 1 bundles along with the marketing.

It will be interesting to see if Sony extends the sale like last year.   Also, Final Fantasy 15 which for all intents and purposes is acting like an exclusive will probably help to drive sales of PS4 though the end of the month. 



Pokemon sun/moon stayes in the top 5/10 the entire time huh? Pretty damn good (if it did)
