Lol, when did they cut the pro to squeak out last minute sales? And the "there's going to be a ton of disappointment on Christmas" comment is hilarious

Target started the 15% off every product deal on Sunday and Amazon pricematched after that. Sunday is the day after the last day of the November NPD tracking period, so those sales will count for December NPD. Add onto the fact that the PS4 won Cyber Monday according to Adobe, the PS4 already has an early advantage.

How did it used to work?  Microsoft won September to November and couldn't outsell in December?  Or did they barely outsell Sony September to January?

That deal applied to xb1 too

There are so many retards on gaf,  chertz,  youtube and many other sources that actually believe the bs sources claiming a close victory.  

It's actually worthwhile making these "leaks" because of the amount of people who will suck it up.  You even have greenberg retweeting it.  

Obviously it could turn out to be a smallish victory but these clowns who are leaking it haven't a clue.

They won Nov and Dec in 2014. Won March or something in 2015.

It is pretty weird that ps4 won BF, cyber Monday, all signs show it having lots more interest, the guy saying he doesn't have knowledge of the numbers then finds someone who's willing to share not only the gap but tons more information... If he does have an insider I can see maybe npd separating the ps4 and ps4 pro like mediacrate and the insider just missed it

All while being nobody journalist on no name website guest appearance on cesspool of a podcast in the name of "balance"

Sorry, but journalist with integrity stay away from that

At this point I would say we'll have to accept these numbers as true, both the author and the editor of the website have come out in that thread to swear on these numbers and it's not like we had anyone, official or leaker, refute them either (I mean remember that there is an NPD guy on Gaf now that could at least say if this was wrong). Also while this article is clearly a fanboy piece it is still not like this website is some small no-name site that can just get away with posting clearly falsified numbers.

Looks like the US is lagging behind this year, but the rest of the world seems to be taking up the pace instead, maybe Americans are too busy buying water and supplies in preparation for a Trump presidency to actually buy consoles, lol.

Website that talks about window phones? Yeah, it's a nobody site. Also, by your logic, we don't have a insider confirming the results.

Windows site talking about Windows things...what incriminating evidence, they must be the lowest of the low.

Also there's a difference between the guy from the NPD Group on Gaf straight up saying "Yes these are our numbers" and just saying "No, this is wrong". You know how blue the NPD group is about publicly sharing these hardware numbers.

No. A Windows phone website. Who the fudge looks for Windows phones news? And there's a difference between the npd guy confirming the numbers and a leakers saying the leak is real
