According to InfoScout, the Xbox One Gears of War console was the top selling bundle this year. It was available at a great price and even came with a gift card. No wonder it sold this well. InfoScout said:
“Given existing gaming consoles have been available on the shelf for over two years, it should be of no surprise that consoles took a back seat to game sales this Black Friday season. Once again, when consoles did sell retailers offered game+console bundle deals to lure consumers. The top console bundle pick this year was the Xbox One 500gb with Gears of War, which Target discounted to $299 (down from $350) and threw in a $60 gift card.”
Did you buy an Xbox One during Black Friday or Cyber Monday? Let us know.
