X down to 31. Gray up to 8. November is turning into a Switch Vs PS4 battle. I almost feel sorry for the X. It’s a great product that’s seemingly losing its debut month.

Talk about an upset if X loses.

Almost (BTW, where is X1Gates?)

Yeah man, it would be pretty underwhelming for Xbox to lose the month, not only that but to finish in 3rd place must be hard for the brand. 

They have tried to win back their strongest market, but with the wrong products IMO.

I hope this is proof enough that Games >>> Power

The Beast turned out to be just a Mini Boss, a Minion. 

The Switch tho, that's the Final Boss

Neon switch is now temporarily out of stock from amazon. Gray is a 1-2 day ship after order.
And PS4 is still in stock and firmly in front.

Bonkers.

This will be a battle of the stock! I think that Sony will be able to produce more units than Nintendo, i could be wrong tho!

So are you claiming to know definitively the results for Nov and that the xbox will def be last? When you are finished dusting the Chrystal Ball can I borrow it pls? You could be right but it seems you have absolute confidence in this prediction as you appear to speak of it as a forgone conclusion and that that the only uncertainty is the battle for first place is between only PS4 and Switch..



Xbox 360 and Xbox One

Im not claiming that, im just predicting the results based on the performance of each console in the Amazon website.

I think the battle for 1st place will be indeed between the Switch and PS4.

The ONLY "it" factor in favor of the Xbox One X are the preorders, but the monthly/yearly rankings are moving pretty fast and agressive, which led me to think that the Xbox One will be finishing third.

I could be wrong of course, but im very confident about my prediction.

Cool.. It will appear thus far that all 3 will have a stellar month. I myself am still pretty unsure about it. Depends an a couple of unknowns at this point such as x1x preorders and the upcoming BF deals.  Be interesting to see either way.

Thursday ps4 will essentially be $150 if you Buy at GameStop cause when you buy a $199 1TB, you’ll receive a free $50 GameStop gift card. That’s another game or two right there. 

And PS4 also has pre orders for cod ww2 and sw bf2 even though probably not much, will still help. 

I don’t think I’ve been this excited for an npd ever! All three are Putting on a really entertaining show.

Sony have announced deals for Black Friday and have also began sales a week in advance. This suggests to me that Sony believe they have more than enough stock to fulfil both promotions. We can see clearly how effective a drop to $199 has been for the PS4, an almost certain indication of which console is likely to sell better on Black Friday given similar deals or better. The XB1X is being beaten quite easily by both the Switch and the PS4 and the cheapest XB1 is being beaten even easier.

For me it very much looks like the winner for Black Friday is going to be the PS4 unless MS want to risk devaluing their console even more by dropping to $150, something that could easily be countered by Sony including 1 or 2 well received games.

Perorders are the only likely factor that would give the XB1 a possible win and that's an as yet to be known figure. That of course is also reduced by the two preordered bundles for the PS4: COD/Starwars. I don't think these did as well as the XB1X preorders but they certainly will have reduced the impact on the final monthly figure.

The Switch was and still is selling incredibly well and even though they didn't have preorders and don't currently own that top spot, the consistency of sales, at a much higher position than the XB1 means I would give the nod to them in terms of beating XB1 sales.

This is why I've plumped for PS4 > Switch > XB1. But we're still only 'speculating' here and anything could happen. I just feel what I've described above is more likely, even though not necessarily the case.

Damn you know that in France the PS4 Slim with one game is at 299€. America is lucky...



PS4 was beating switch before any stock issues.

Also I think some are going to fall into the trap of trying to add up skus.
