A comeback in the way they are not completely crushed in their 2 major markets.
Also, lets keep in mind that this is happening because of severe price cuts and bundles. Microsoft is losing alot of money on this and its not sustainable. How will sales look in January after the price cut goes away? Everyone waiting for a price drop already got one. I wouldnt be surprised if the Wii U outsold it weekly again.


ms is not losing money on this
they just cut theire gaming divison profits for this to increase the installbase and generate further profits

this is called an investment. u always have to loose money first to make money
after january we will probably see a new 1tb standard sku at 399

Exactly what do you mean by making a comeback? If you mean losing by less then I agree, but it's still falling further behind every week. It fell behind by another quarter of a million last week ... This is why I'm confused.

Making a comeback is´t necessarily about being number 1 worldwide but rather selling in great numbers and getting a better image among fans.

Wouldn't a comeback imply they outsold the PS4...at least once? As far we know that never happened. PS4 has still outsold the X1 every week. Also I think its more important to wait and see if they sustain these sales past the holidays.

We will see once the price goes back up to 399

Ah, yeah, fair enough, I can go with that. I'd have to agree with that. The XB1 is doing remarkably well this month and I can see it winning Nov NPD.

I actually think MS will knock the price of the standalone X1 to $349 and continue selling the AC bundle, but at $399, to maintain interest.

For me, the most important thing is that X1 stays ahead of 360 and PS4 ahead of the Wii. I want growth! :)

Negative comments after another from you. Too many people don't want to see any bright side for the xbox one.

If x1 is selling well enough. that's all that matters. Obviously it is not selling as well as ps4.

This is unbelievable. Have you got some sort of filter that filers out the hundreds and hundreds of negative posts from the usual suspects and focuses entirely on my meagre contributions to this forum? I'd say they out 'negative' me by 1000/1, so I'm interested to know why you are singling me out for that accusation.

lol Ok. I apologize if i offended.

I just notice you never have anything postive to say about anything relating to xbox 1. [from all the post I seen] but never mind, life goes on.

 

 



Praise the One.

hm.. that might not be enough for "growth" though, depending on by how much WiiU will lose to PS3

I can't disagree with that either. If we saw a surge from Ninty that would be even better.
