So, it's official. Ps4 gained another ~100K on XBO. I'm pretty sure that puts the gap at ~500K+ in its favor for the first 4 months. In just one territory. The XBO's best territory. And there's a strong chance the XBO drops below 100K for May. Yep, less exclusives is better. 
Can't wait to see what the PS4 does at $199.

Hah again that phrase from another person!
The answer is this: What it's currently doing at 249$ ( since holidays ) with Uncharted 4... That's essentially a 199$ PS4 obviously or a bit less than that.

Essentially, but there is a big difference between essentially $199 and actually $199.
But by the time the PS4 is $199, it will have peaked anyway, and will be decreasing, so despite the lower price, the numbers will be lower due to saturation.
Is that right? A 70% MoM drop for NS?
I get that March was a launch month, but it's STILL sold out here.
How sure can we be that NS isn't under-reported in April?

When the PS4 drops to $199, it will be BF this year. That's what I'm most interested to see. Though, I do think that if it remains $199, which it probably will since the PS4 is still selling for $249, even though that was supposed to just be temporary, it should remain relatively flat for most of the early part of the year.

My main point is, sales won't suddenly explode because the price is dropped below 200. It still has to fight against saturation. I don't mean that sales will drop very quickly, but I think the PS4 has already seen it's best holiday (november-december 2015, namely). Now it's about keeping sales relatively level and slowing the decline.

I thought it was everywhere, but it seems it is only Walmart and Amazon selling it still for $249. Target has it for $269. And Best Buy and Gamestop is at the normal $299, though Best Buy does say Price Match Guarantee on it. I think it's safe to say that Amazon and Walmart are making up the majority of PS4 sales in the US.

I don't know. A $199 PS4 Slim and a possible $299 Pro could really drive sales this holiday season. Not saying it will happen, but there is a chance at maybe matching 2015.

seems like a pretty standard post launch drop
