Sony PlayStation 4 has Black Friday advantage

November 26, 2013

Headed into the heart of the holiday shopping season, Sony appears to have a lead with its PlayStation 4 on more wish lists than Microsoft's Xbox One.

That finding parallels a similar one recently from research firm Parks Associates. More than one-third (36%) of those shopping for a console plan to purchase a PS4, compared to 27% for Xbox One, its survey of 2,500 heads of broadband households found.

From the article, "Sony PlayStation 4 has Black Friday advantage" by Mike Snider.
