NPD: PlayStation 4 Was January’s Top-Selling Console

By Alex Osborn

The NPD sales results for January are in, and it looks like Sony has reclaimed the top spot as far as hardware sales go. That's right, PlayStation 4 was the best-selling console in the United States last month.

"PlayStation 4 was the top selling console in January and remains the cumulative leader in the U.S. according to NPD data," Sony shared in a recently-released statement.

After the holiday season, Microsoft bumped the price of Xbox One back up to $399, but it didn't take long for the company to discount the box back down to $349 when sales started slowing down again. It will be interesting to see how the month of February pans out between the two with the $50 price gap once again.
