Well, MS already celebrate. :)

This made me laugh a bit. I would be really worried if the X1 didn't sell out at Target because that $50 GC deal is by far the best X1 deal.

They sold a whole pallet!

Meanwhile, in New Zealand:

What a terrible tweet. That picture crops out the rest of the obvious gaming section, so all you *can* see are PS4s and 360s....where's the rest of pallet Aaron?

WHERE'S THE REST OF THE PALLET, AARON?!?

Jokes aside, where is the rest of the pallet?

I know the Wii U has fantastic exclusives, but it has barely any third party presence. Considering like 80% or more of these new console lineups are made by third party multiplatform releases, you're giving up a lot of games in favour of a slow trickle of quality exclusives.

Unless you have a gaming PC and prefer it, I don't see how the Wii U, even with its exclusives, could possibly compete on value against two systems that actually have a future.

Already have a gaming PC, so I'm well set on that front.

To be fair, the scene was the same at the Targets I went to. Empty XBO pallet, full PS4 pallet.

The Xbox executive gloating about sales is really hilarious considering you are pretty much giving the console away at Target (excuse the hyperbole).

I never bought GTA V on last generation. I plan on picking in up once i am done with Shadow of Mordor and Evil Within. I would also assume x360 owners buying the PS4 have never played The Last of Us.

Right because every single person who is buying an XBO/PS4 this BF has already played TLOU and GTA5. This isn't a sweeping generalization at all.

Yea, it's stupid. I'm waiting for my bundle to come this Tuesday. I have yet to touch either Last of Us or GTA V.

This comment made me chuckle:

@aarongreenberg @Target @__CrapGamer__ And the is still the whole #PS4 pallet #nogamesorbroken ones !

Good to know that Unity is only broken on PS4, and the DC was the only first party with a broken MP launched this holydays :p

Anyway, pretty sure everyone got good BF sales. There were a lot of promotions and games to get for almost everyone.

I ordered my PS4 bundle from TigerDirect (this was before Amazon had them in stock). They were listed as in stock at the time. The next day, I check, they're backordered and after emailing them, they inform me they have no idea when they'll get them in. Which is bullshit.

I could always cancel that order and get one from Amazon (although they won't be back in stock there until the 2nd) but then I'll be charged sales tax. Blargh.

Incredible doesn't mean they won. I'm sure their sales were incredible but were they enough to win?

How is that any different from the MCC or AC bundles? Sure, AC:U may look new, but it's the same buggy, mediocre, Ubisoft open world minimap icon chaser the series has always been.

The only draw for the X1 bundle is the price because the packins are either mediocre, or last gen remasters or up-ports just like you're complaining about.

Why is the GTA bundle 499$ now on amazon. I thought the deal doesn't end before december?

edit: Ah ok, it's a marketplace deal. Seems to be sold out from amazon then.

I think they're out of stock until Monday or Tuesday.

I got an email advertising $399 GTAV bundle for Cyber Monday so I assume that's when they're restocking.

Hahaha, in the first tweet Tim Dog called Greenberg Greenie.

Back on topic, I wonder if the xbox's larger boxed size has been a limiting factor in how many consoles anyone place can store.
