OP
I think it's the same sickness from the ones that believes Wii U is going to sell +30M.
Poor souls.

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

So many people claim XBO can do 60m+ in their predictions, I really don't see that, and here is why

Not enough exclusives, if I want third party games I will buy them on Steam or get a PS4

For the same price as a PS4, I am gonna PS4 for better graphics and Sony Exclusives

I do see Halo 5 being a big seller but I have no interest in the Master Chief Collection as I still have my orignal Xbox with Halo 1 and 2

Also the gap is inceasing between Wii U and XBO

http://www.vgchartz.com/article/251701/xbox-one-vs-wii-uvgchartz-gap-chartsjune-2014-update/

I don't think the XBO will bomb, I say it can do 35m+ but I don't see it doing 60m

1-Exclusive will surely come later and last gen ps3 multiplatform was worse then X360 it didn't stop 3rd party games to boost PS3 ,i believe 3rd party will help X1 a lot but in a lesser extends then PS4

2-You can judge how X1 will do in the next 5 years just with the first year

3-Wii u is not directly competing  with X1 if someone like Nintendo first party it doesn't mean it will not like Microsoft first party and 3rd party suppor form X1 will always be better then Wii U.

4-X1 is now traking behind X360 but it since launch X1 is still ahead of X360 in total sales

I don't say it imposible to X1 to just sold 35 millions i just say it's to early to tell how X1 will do.



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

I'm not sure why. I thought that it would get to around 70m units but after seeing the sales barely increase after a major price cut, I feel like it won't even make it to 50m. But anything can happen over the next few years. I'm sure nobody expected the 360 to sell 80m+ units. So using reasons such as "not enough exclusives" to justify your predictions is silly, cause its been less than a year since the X1 released.

Master Chief Collection is releasing this Autumn. Which Sony exclusives are releasing this Autumn?

No idea, don't even have any Playstations I was just making a point


So was I, MCC will easily beat Sony's exclusives this Autumn because I'm pretty sure there aren't any Sony exclusives.

Not to mention that November is not 'Autumn'. November is Winter/Holiday season. It's poorly timed in many ways, and being a rehash I foresee it getting crushed by multiplats easily. It will do Titanfall numbers, selling very well to the core XBOX fans but not bringing the masses in, nor selling at the same pace as things like AC, COD, Destiny, etc. To be fair, the Sony exclusives will also be 2nd fiddle this year to the heavyweight multiplats.

Master Chief Collection won't move consoles. Titanfall didn't move consoles, and it was free included with it. So why would people rush to buy a Xbone, then buy a collection of old games? The boost will be minimal and short-lived.



I said 35-40m in my earlier predictions. The way things are looking now it might not even hit those.

A collection of arguably the 2nd biggest FPS series of all time along with its most popular iteration(Halo 2) will return with updated graphics and (much more importantly) online play. That and the Halo 5 beta. Halo still has a built in fanbase which will buy in during this or Halo 5 launch.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

I think you aren't putting enough faith in the Master Chief Collection.. It will sell VERY WELL during the holiday season! Let's not forget that the game also comes with access to the Halo 5 beta!


It will sell well but the only reason people will buy it is because of the Halo 2 remake and all of the maps. If you have a 360 you already have the greater Halo experience. They are just throwing the same game at everyone again because they cant make new IP's.

The greater Halo experience on 360 wtf?  Game even has the exclusive PC maps.  Your either a troll or ignorant.  They have plenty of new IPs coming.
