PS4 sales numbers are likely really good for Sony already. They announced a million locked in by Gamescom (August) and probably piled up even more in the months since. Microsoft has yet to even mention any numbers on their side - which probably says something in and of itself.
If Sony can keep stock readily available while they have this massive initial lead in mind share it will only be even better for them. Especially with Black Friday and the holidays coming up. The $100 dollar difference when both are available is going to sway a lot of families these next few months. In fact, the bigger worry for Sony is if they can't keep stock on the shelves and families are forced to choose to eat the $100 on an Xbone or wait for their system to come back in stock. That's not even mentioning the fact that the PS4 is launching in way more countries than the Xbone into 2014.
In fact, if you're a Sony fan you
absolutely do want to see stock readily available this week and through the holidays. The demand is clearly going to outstrip anything that the Xbone has right now (just look at the poll results right now) and you've got the less expensive product sitting on the shelf.
