I guess that proves there isn't a PS5 after all because Sony aren't investing in it.
My guess is after NextGen hits, neither side will make any more last-gen midgen consoles (4Pros or OneXs). They will burn through that inventory and that's that. They will have NextGen at the top and then last-gen base at the bottom of the price regions.
Xbox elite 2 is the fifth fastest selling console accessory in the US after 3 months. It is behind 2 Kinect bundles, the ds4 and the Wii move + controller. Not by unit sales but rather dollar amount.

Maybe they should try a gold inlay version for 10x as much. It could push them to first.
Normally we'd call that 'top grossing' rather than 'faster selling'. No idea what NPD are doing here ranking 'top selling' peripherals by dollar value.
They are simply hiding the most interesting numbers. Probably because they want to sell you the real information (for a ridiculously high price).
Source Tweet:
"An interesting takeaway from the US NPD report is that PS4 and XB1 hardware sales in Jan 2020 are considerably lower than PS3 and 360 were in Jan 2013.
Next-gen consoles are around the corner but both are declining sharper than expected.
Switch continues to remain steady."

$229 and $279 might be good spots for them too. That's gives them some room for holiday deals when the ps5 is sold out.
PS4 sales will probably climb back up if it got a good price cut. A 7nm PS4 Mini with Flash instead of HDD, maybe download only, push for <£150, I can see doing well.
Halo: The Master Chief Collection is currently the best selling game Worldwide on Steam.
The lift comes after the recent release of Halo CE into the Collection It seems sales spikes will happen with each game added.
If Halo Infinite delivers high quality, could be huge on PC
Funny that CE is what did it for the title, when it has very little difference to the original pc port of the game 20 years ago.
The MCC CE is a good PC port of a One port of a 360 port of a mediocre PC port of a XboxOG game.

its sort of interesting that when we look at the sales of this title, it continues to just keep selling. It does indicate to a degree that they lost their fanbase somewhere along the line.
