It's a Japanese game.
PS4 has over double the userbase.
It released as a PS4 console exclusive and was available to buy for 16 months longer than the X1 version.
Game is only available as a digital download on X1.

4:1 in favor of PS4 would be insanely good for the X1. Absolutely impossible. Maybe if it launched at the same time. 8:1 to 10:1 is much more realistic.

Wow, 8:1 to 10:1 would be insane! I mean, there are pc sales to considere, and this game probably got some numbers on pc, at least 500k perahps? so... do you think xbox sales for Nier are around 300-400k?

yeah that's pretty much exactly what I think. Monster Hunter World is around 1m physical on X1, so let's say 1.3m in total and that's a far more known franchise that released at the same day as the PS4 version and is also physically available. Resident Evil 7 has very similar numbers.
I don't see how Nier Automata would be anywhere close to that. Around 500k lifetime (unless they release a physical version, which could push sales a bit).
