AAAHHHHHHHHHHH I'VE BEEN DOING TOO MUCH BATTLEBORN BETA AND REVISION.

I'll work on it now so no one do it!

Raven

As far as I know, for the first time since this generation started, there is not a single Xbox One SKU in the top 100 of the Amazon US hourlies.

Kerotan

Ratchet sold out on amazon.  

And ps4 wins NPD again!  

Pleased with the MLB performance.

Holy freaking doom.

Top SKU is QB at 108. Second is GeOW 133, custom bundle at 139, holiday at 239. elite 240, gears white 241, division 289, and that's it under 500.

It's absolutely horrible looking, almost as bad as Gears 4's visuals!  ;D



Meanwhile top PS4 is COD at 22. Standard 71, Battlefront 229, and maybe Uncharted collection. XBO isn't actually doing that bad since it has so many bundles. IMO it looks worse than it is.

It may actually be worse than it looks. Rankings can be deceptive both ways depending on what the actual numbers are. Those two PS4 SKUs alone could be selling more than all the XB1 SKUs combined for all we know.

If it's worse than it looks, then I wonder why the XB1 is doing really badly while the 'temporary' price cut is in effect. I guess the lack of exclusives is catching up to it...

There's better deals elsewhere at the moment isn't there?

Even so, you wouldn't expect xb1 to be doing quite so bad on Amazon. Last month it looked very far behind but on NPD the two consoles were closer than before. I don't think Amazon is a good indicator right now.

I'm not aware of any deals going on elsewhere with the price cut in effect. Even if there are, as you pointed out, it shouldn't be doing that badly. There have been deals in the past from other retailers and they never caused the XB1 to drop out of the top 100.

A temporary one (if it actually is) from March 22 to April 28.

Maybe the drop didn't do much because people already thought it was that price... Can't keep track of all the price shuffling on that product
