Xbox tops U.S. console sales again in April

While sales have understandably fallen in the last months ahead of the launch of the PS4 and Xbox Infinity, Microsoft remains the undisputed king in the U.S.

The software giant sold 130,000 units in April, giving it the lead for the 28th straight month.



Overall retail spending on the console, including hardware, accessories and software totaled $208 million, most of any console in the nation.

Microsoft will be unveiling the next-generation Xbox on May 21st.

  Gotta say it's a great system. Kids play it far more than PS3 and screw the wii! Only thing that pissed me off is that to use all those new features they added they want me to pay for XBOX Live Gold or whatever it is on top of the service I am using. Thank God the kids aren't using it cause the PS3 shines streaming my Amazon Prime free!
  

  Just my $0.02,
