didnt the X1 sold like a 100,000 units on china launch this week or something? i guess next week the X1 will outsell the PS4 for the first time, and then a week later PS4 will be on top again so... i dont think it will be the best selling console every week for a year, maybe next year?.

Isn't the china number shipments (sold-in) and not sold through?

China numbers are sold in, and even if it is 100k in china sold, it would only barely beat the ps4 this week (of numbers that we have), and most likely wouldn't (I believe due to constant undertracking this site has shown for ps4, the week ending the 20th was >200k most likely 220k). Also PS4 will have a longer sustained boost of off Fifa, due to brand association built up over the past decade, Europe being Sony Land, and the fact that Xbone is more likely to drop quicker than PS4 in America.

Halo MCC will do fuck all.

Black Friday depends on deals, but PS4 will most likely have a higher daily sell through than Xbone which will offset Friday boost.

hahahahahahahaha No.

The PS4 will not dethrone the PS2. Gaming was at it's peak in that era, now it's slowing down...a lot

Wasn't the 100k for X1 in China just shipments? Hasn't anyone been able to prove otherwise?

its sold in, yes

but japan sold 23k units on a 40k shipment with zero interest in the xbox one

 

 

imho the china sold through quote will be much higher.

and that 100k figure was the day one shipment. they got 6 more days to sell all of them.

 

even 100k+ first week ist possible...

I finally pre-purchased an XB1 for the Sunset Drive bundle. Also cuz MCC soon, so that week I could see it beating PS4

XBOX ONE have sold 100K on Cina, so, no...

Week of 4 Octoer XBOX ONE will outsell PS4.

Shipped

I don't see why not.

XB1 Chinese launch: 100k shipped. Even if they sold, say, 60k, it won't be enough to put it on top WW.

MCC: Mostly popular in the US and UK, and it's an HD collection. Not gonna be enough.

Black Friday: Not only has the XB1 have to outsell the PS4 that day, it has to outsell it by enough to surpass PS4 sales during the rest of the week AND surpass PS4's advantage in the rest of the world. Not gonna happen.

Smas Bros.: The percentage jump will be huge, but baseline sales are so poor that it won't be enough.

So yeah, barring a $100 price cut for the XB1, I see the PS4 being on top for the rest of the year.
