Look at the numbers, its been doing more than 3:1. Its done more then 4:1 once and I see it happening a lot more now since the new baseline of the x1 is so low.

The current baselines of both are lower than 3:1 on average. The baseline of the X1 will recover like the Wii  did when it released the games people were waiting for to buy the console.

If the WW base of X1 only goes up to 80k per week next year, the PS4 would have to match that with at least 300k per week to reach 3:1 by the end of the year. Do you think PS4 will have a baseline of 300k next year?


it would have the games for it +likely price drop. 

Thats the thing, it dosent have the games for it.

Did you see gamescon? They showed nothing coming, they only have quantom brake early next year while ps4 showed a bunch of new games. I see after the holidays the x1 will be selling less then the wii u did at its worse. While the ps4 increses its library it gives less and less  reasons to get the x1.

And all 3 will get a pricecut next year so thats not going to help much in the choice making.

I was talking about ps4 sustaining 300k. Not Xb1. ps4 will have the games to draw people in and they will likely announce a price drop in 2015. So it makes sense they will keep the numbers up to reach a 3:1

Sorry about that then.

Althou it still dosent change what I said about the xbox one. So it might do 5:1 in all those months of drought.

You think I'm pro sony? Well I'm not against them, but I favor nintendo actually. 

The thing is that I belive nintendo will do great this gen by being a secondary console, so the best ps4 does, the better wii u will do and secure 2nd place.

No, I was more referring to some over-the-top replies and to a well known vgcharter that always feels the urge to downplay Sony, sometimes answering far too seriously blatantly exaggerated posts 
About Ninty, yes, I always thought that Wii U could use a cheaper smaller Upad for people finding the current one too large or the entry price still too high, but apart this IMVHO Wii U hasn't real structural problems or game library ones, but just suffered from bad marketing decisions and strategies from Ninty, as soon as Ninty fixes them, sales should better, and it looks like it's just happening.

Never is the safest bet really, but good to see you have such confidence in PS4 sales :).

I agree with you completly.

but no worries, next year all 3 will get a pricecut, just need to be the right amount for all 3.

Confidence is all relative.

Like good looking guys getting the girl cuz they are confident and ugly ones arent. You are confident cuz you have what it takes(all the advantages in hardware, price and softwar) to get the girl(mass market share). Even if your not really ugly(x1) but the other guy is just better(ps4) looking, he will get the girl.

e3 2015 would be my best guess. Probably after that though. Although at the current rate, it should never really sell more than double. So never is a very likely possibility. We'll see though. It depends on how much faster the xbox one's sales drop off.
