A million is a drop in the bucket compared to the other 21 million units PS4 has sold. This is why Sony basically just makes games for the west these days. Even their Japanese games are designed to appeal to us.

Hence, the PS4 is a massive success even without the indie, niche, Japanese games. So I repeat, "They arent the reasons PS4 is doing so well."

i dont think its a stretch to say that by the end of the gen the PS4 will have 6 million or more consoles sold in japan (probably even more if great JRPGs keep coming to the system like FF7remake, Star Ocean 5, Persona 5, Dragon Quest Heroes 2 etc), if you think those numbers arent partly the reason why the PS4 is selling and will probably keep selling more than their competitors this gen then i have nothing to disscuss with you because your standars are completly off from mines, for you a million is nothing, for me its a big number especially since the competition is selling almost nothing in the same region... not to mention we dont know how many people outside of Japan are buying a PS4 for this type of games (like myself).

"The PS4 has released in more countries. The XB1 will catch up when it releases in more countries."
"It won't make a difference. The PS4 has better hardware, better games, more games and superior multiplats."
"It will! Watch and see."

*Releases in more countries ... silence for a while.*

"It's the price I tell you! That's why the PS4 is selling more. Wait until the XB1 is cheaper ... you'll see."
"It's not the price, it's the better hardware, better games, more games and superior multiplats."

*Price cut ... silence for a while*

"The PS4 has less games than the XB1. Why is it selling more?"
"Actually it has a lot more."
"No, Indies don't count."
"It has more even without Indies."
"FTP don't count."
"It has more even without FTP."
"Remasters don't count."
"It has more even without remasters."

*Silence for a while*

"But the XB1 games are rated much higher ... that's what counts."
"Actually, the PS4 games are rated higher."

*Silence for a while*

"Why is the PS4 selling better? I don't understand it. It must be hype."


DirectX 12, The Cloud, Windows 10, Backwards Compatibility and 2015 Holiday Lineup will close the gap tho. 

 

*wink wink*

 

Seriously, stop with the excuses people. This generations blueprint is already on the street, nothing will change.

LOL. Yeah, I did think of adding those in too but it got bored.



 

The PS5 Exists.

Like they say quality over quantity. X1 may have fewer games to play in 2015 but let's not lie to ourselves and think the games its getting in 2015 arent some of the best games releasing in 2015. Japanese games are nice in Japan but I don't buy Jap games so thats a welcome loss in my book. Look at it this way, X1 is gaining 30 Rare games this year, its getting access to last gens library for free and has the Block busters in 2015. They have contenders to claim genre markets like Halo will dominate FPS, FM6 will dominate Racing and Tomb Raider will dominate that action adventure market. Just these 3 games alone are going to be GOTY contenters.

There's no point to bother with it. He can read the thread.

I just remember somebody making a similar post a few days ago.  It didn't end well for them.  Thank you for showing mercy, sir!

Damn, what a gap.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

I have, and thats why i choose qaulity over qauntity. I would choose 1 good game over 5 average ones. Steam has the biggest library yet that doesnt mean anything. All my opinions and preference. Its not that the PS4 lacks games. It lacks blockbusters.

He's grasping man.  Rare collection counts as 30 games apparently.
