As Erik Kain reported here last week, the U.S. retail numbers for Xbox One dont look that awful. The PS4 beat it handily at retail in June, by 36%, but with nearly 197,000 units sold, Xbox One seems to have benefited from its recent price cut. That said, Microsoft cant hide the fact that sales have been so tepid in 2014, its been working through channel inventory and manufacturing barely any new consoles.
