Poll It may be possible Xbox one won January NPD (77 votes)

Yes 43%
No 57%

Seems interesting, Xbox one only really dropped when out of stock, and then it would climb back to the top when it did (regardless of PS4 stock issues ) and would end up next, or in between 1-4 spaces a part for a long period of time. The updated yearly chart, which is the january chart, as of a few days ago, has the PS4 at 9 and the Xbox one at 19.

but then i realized that the Xbox live gold member ship is significantly ahead and has been ahead of the Xbox One for awhile. This means those XBLG buyers getting the 12 (and 3 months to a lesser extend) months of gold are showing people buying Xbox Ones outside of Amazon and just going to Amazon for the chaper prices. So it's like having 2 SKU's (well not really) I'd say the XBLG 12 month cards account for 25% (could be more) of Xbox one sales.

In December 2014, XBLG 12 months was around 9 behind Xbox One. the 3 month one was in the 90's areas in the top 100.

In November, 12 month was 21 behind the Xbox One.

This also becomes more interesting when the Xbox 360 was severely down this year and seems to continue going down.

This month by week (yes you can do that) has 12 month gold ahead of Xbox one by a decent margin. Right now at of this post Xbox 12 month gold is number 1 in hourly charts, beating 2 PSN cards, the cards that are across 4 devices, seems rather odd, while the Xbox one got more stock and rocketed back to mid first page as well, XBLG 12 month was number 3 when Xbox One was still struggling on top 10 second page for 2 updates.

Monthly chart has XBLG 12 months ahead by 12 or so of the actual Xbox one system.

So this either:

A. Tells us that Amazon is a bad indicator this month.

B. A lot of people randomly decided to go out in droves to buy an Xbox one in the last 5 or so days of this month.

C. XBG 12 months should be counted as an SKu at a certain percentage, which would put Xbox One as the leading console most likely considering how insanely close Xbox one gets toward the PS4 every time it gets stock. The 12 months would put it ahead consistently.

A and C seems to be the most likely, because this destroys all kinds of trends, especially 12 month gold being in the top 5 for a few days now, been 3-1 for most of the day so far in position.

One argument someone will bring up is that PSn sales are probably down because people don't buy PSN all the tie. This seems silly because the cards always on the top aren't PSN plus, they are PSn cards for game purchases which people buy all the time, or other "purchases" and that's across 4 devices, so having XBLG in the top 10 for most of the month and now somehow, remember this is GOLD, being at the top, even ahead by a good mile, of Xbox cash cards, and considering that also includes the 360 (hardware is falling not software) this has to say something.

Last time XBLG cards were around cheap on Amazon such things had not shown. not even close, especially over Buy cards.

Will X1 now be current gen 8 console leader now????

Depends in what you consider leading. Leading in the sense of giving its users the most in games, features, abd entertainment? Or the leader of getting the most fools to fall for the hype and pay $400 dollars to wait for the console to actually be worthwhile in a few years lol. Yah know...so which to do mean? Want to make sure you get the answer you want

Console leader in sales, not useless no gaming tech or apps???

then you'd want to go with the second option bud. Glad to help.

Maybe that's why PS4 is on a Roll and current gen 8 console leader. The GAMES.

Ok...i'm running out of comebacks to ur shit lol. No matter what I say you'll just come back with Sony cheerleading. theres not really anything there even respond too. So **** it, you win.

no, that wasn't the second option.

Besides the ps4 doesn't have "the games". It has 'the indies'. Damn near all of the ps4's exclusives have flopped, or just have been generic/terrible. The XB1 has decent exclusives and 'the indies' though...meaning its the system with, "the games".

Forza H2 flopped here so did halo MCC the 2 biggest games the xbox one had last year.

Games are games period stop downplaying indies that is basically the only thing you will have decent to play on xbox one for the next 8 months,Ori and the blind forest..hahahaaa

70 games more on PS4 than on xbox one say that the XB1 is the system that doesn't have the games..lol

Hmm now the PHYSICAL 12 month gold Sku is flying toward the top 5 in hourly. Which also shows a very odd trend here, add that Xbox gift cards are in the top 12, 3 of them, and they have no deals, all this seems very odd. Seems like Amazon is not the place to get an Xbox one and people are buying them other places this month, not sure what more unusual evidence is needed for a possible win.

Which you have no proof of because you didn't check before I brought it up and then claimed it was still on sell at the "present" time because you literally can't read. You make a lot of mistakes (in fact the same mistake Tormentos did, if I said it has run out of stock, along with other websites mentioning they ran out of stock, with a counter, and a DATE for when they will get more stock (oh noess) but you check as SOON as I say it for THAT day then how the hell do you even have a platform to stand on? You clearly didn't check before and now it's too late now. But of course making shit up in a deceptive condescending way is what you did, lol teacher, if you were a teacher we would have had a rational argument where we agree to disagree at the end, instead you started with the usual youtube child comment bullshit like tormentos, those poor kids are disabled now probably.) It makes even less sense since Amazon has sold out with those same 2 situation before, yet now it's impossible because you say so and you didn't look so since you didn't see it it's not real? I mean if you had checked as soon as I made this thread (you didn't until later) you would have saw the same thing and now saw any sku for Amazon on any page. I'd say agree to disagree but something tells me that's something you can't actually do.

Shut up.

January will be the month that breaks the XBone's luster for good. What's left? Buy one get one free?

Yep that one month that had the price back up, then back down, with all these gold memberships at the top of the lists the last 2 weeks. We have so much info that this month is make or break I can't find any at all.

Because it is been sold for $39.99 instead of $59.99.?

Why is GTA again in the top 20.? For the same reason it dropped to $39.99 and it got a spike all your arguments have been prove wrong and the xbox one has basically trail the PS4 all month long.

It enever did and you could actually buy a XBO from Amazon on those days PERIOD,orders were fulfill by Amazon centers,and your unit was package,ship and you got customer service all from Amazon.

AMAZON never ran out of units,all units ship from fulfillment centers are send to you by amazon,so regardless of amazon having no physical units in one part,it had units on their fulfillment centers which has the effect of been the same shit,which is why the XBO keeped charting because it keep selling period.

xbox live card don't reflect xbox one sales you can't be this dumb xbox live cards are also for the 84 million xbox 360 MS sold,so basically not every one who buys a live 12 month card is buying it for an xbox one..

Again Torm, that doesn't matter since Amazon themselves never ran out. It's been proven. And i'm not talking about FBA either. I'm talking about Amazon themselves.

Few days with 12 month gold at top, Physical 12 gold (wut?) also within that top area for awhile. XBox One Sku struggling to stay on 1st page, pretty sure Amazon will be wrong (that along with the other factors) too strange. Point cards are also up there, though they fell a little, it's still too strange, and those don't have discounts. In order for gold to be that high, since it's required, and also only applies to 2 systems, one is down, while all the PSN cards are across numerous systems and more than one country mostly, this just gets weirder and weirder.

I say a win or a very small gap in either favor.

Also Physical gold being up near digital gold just seems out of the blue. That's 3x as many people, and separate groups. Hmm.

THE XBOX 360 USES XBOX LIVE CARDS.

There you have it a clear justification for the increase in sales after the price drop.

Except Xbox 360 is down, and why would it have a guns hot rise now and not last year or the year before? For some reason you seem to forget the 360 is extremely damaged and will likely be on it's last legs in 2015. Or did you ignore the MS reports and NPD sales numbers?

Now 12 month Physical XBLG has moved to number 5, and XBLG 12 months digital is still at number one. Keep in mind the PSN+ and PSN cards involve a bunch of systems, and thus, this means tons of people are buying Xbox ones, just not on Amazon, because 12 month gold is required for MP play, which is what you would have gotten during the holiday season, unlikely mroe than 5% of Xbox one buyers during December did not get gold, so Xbox One must have had a very good january NPD (and also February so far) outside of Amazon because some ones had to be buying thise gold cards and it's clearly not Xbox One or 360 users on Amazon. Add 360 is down in general, and all of a sudden it seems clear that most of those Golds are for Xbox one.

I still won't go beyond probably but I will say it will be very close. I'd say 15k minimum, either side AT LEAST with a max of Xbox One winning by around 100k+

You're still going on with this insane theory? Are you going to keep bumping this thread right up until the NPD January results come in?

If you think the January Amazon results are important there's a pretty easy conclusion you can make:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/2015-01/videogames

#9: Playstation 4 Console

#20: Xbox One Assassin's Creed Unity Bundle

/done

The Xbox One holiday fire sale is over, and once again the Playstation 4 console is selling better in NA.

Nope, 12 months of gold is required (keep in mind PSN+ is across more platforms, including the PS4 which has a larger installbases than Xbox One) for MP. Apps are not behind a paywall anymore ether, Xbox 360 is down. Who's buying the 12 month gold cards? Who's buying the PHYSICAL 12 month gold cards as well? Been cosistently on top since the last week in January, even before the sale, Xbox point cards were also up for a few days before falling back down, but still at a decent position, no discount. (also your link is old)

The fact the Physical is that high just scream volumes. If anything there are better deals for the Xbox one elsewhere. Seems like a very high probability.

It can't be a discount because this has happened before when the Xbox 360 and Xbox one were selling better and it wasn't evenc lsoe to as high and the Physical version didn't even really exist.

Then you have the Physical version. Which is very high.

You have 12 month MP required cards beating out cards that are across multiple systems, and since there isn't a pay wall anymore, that just seems weird for people to be buying so much in droves.

Xbox 360 is down, so most of those 12 month cards are for the Xbox one.

Actual Xbox on rising and falling between 12 and 20 randomly most of the time. Doesn't seem like a good indicator this month.

12 month gold cards have been outselling the XBox One by great margins consistently since the second week of january (before the price re-drop)

I clearly see either a small, small victory, either way, or a surprise big win for Xbox One.

Actual Xbox on rising and falling between 12 and 20 randomly most of the time. Doesn't seem like a good indicator this month.

12 month gold cards have been outselling the XBox One by great margins consistently since the second week of january (before the price re-drop)

I clearly see either a small, small victory, either way, or a surprise big win for Xbox One.

Yep, that's what I expected: a lot of nonsense.

No, you got it all wrong. It's funny because you actually thought it had a chance.

This is the third NPD thread I've seen made by him for just January, in all he heavily implies a MS win. This one is even funnier because he speculates on cow excuses pending believed victory.

Well, at least he is showing some initiative. The rest of the Lems just ran off and hid. If the fat lady gets any louder, System Wars will go deaf.

Care to put that into a percentage? By what percent of the XBone's sales did the $50 more expensive PS4 win by?

Frankly, the XBone didn't even outsell the launch-aligned January for the original XBox. It's not just that XBone got beat on its home turf, it is in a complete self-destruct death spiral.

I predicted precisely this, back when the price cut and bundles were originally announced. XBone was going to cannibalize its demand in 2015 for the sake of going HAM on the holidays. Now, it's a ship without sails. A boat without oars. Free-floating against a machine that has a very heavy lineup of games in the first 6 months of 2015 and going into the holidays with Uncharted 4.

You're on a sinking ship. There's no way to spin that. It's no 360.

Tell me again about how Amazon gift cards are going to give the Xbox One a win for January NPDs, will you? It's super-interesting.

Never said it would win.

Yep, I figured I'd make good on that, even though it was a total fire sale and the bet was completely out of context. I was being a little bitch by not acquiescing to the terms of the bet and System Wars needs order. I will uphold that order.
