Forums - Gaming Discussion - Will PS4 and Xbox One Both Outsell the 3DS?

Now with the switch out we should see 3DS sales drop like a rock. I could see the 3DS selling 20k per week in a few weeks...

PS4 +PS4 Pro and Xbox One +Xbox Scorpio will be supported for at least 4+ years 

PS4 outselling the 3DS is a given

I could see Xbox One outselling it in a few years. It will likely be outselling the 3DS by about 100k on a weekly basis once the switch has its skin in the game

No doubt in my mind the PS4 will easily outsell the 3DS. Exclusives are rolling out in fast pace starting this year and there is no indication of it stopping, everyone I know owns a PS4 or wants a PS4 its the console people love most and I rarely hear anything negative about it and people are eagerly awaiting the new naughty dog and kojima games.

The Xbox One on its current course will not, people need to forgive the bad image that they have branded Xbox with in 2013 (rightfully so). Hopefully the Scorpio will change the power perspective and Phil and the Xbox team can deliver to bring more great games to the platform, Its not going to be easy and its unlikely it will outsell the 3DS but its possible.

I think everyone should look at unlocked 285 rarely have I seen any CEO of a gaming company give me this much possitive energy about a brand as Phil did about the Xbox and they seem to know they need to do more.

The 3DS will also be impacted greatly by the Switch and I hope that will outsell the 3DS asswell, we need a Nintendo console to do well for some great games.

The ps4 will. The xbox will not.

The ps4 is around 10 away from doing that.. the xbox is around 35.

The xbox one will have to more than double what it has done to do that.

Xbox needs to sell at the same pace or better for the next 4 years to beat 3DS. Very possible!



The PS4 will obviously.

Don't think the Xbox will, not enough going on to push it for that many years



The PS4 will but i think the XB1 will end up with 55-60m sales so I don't think it will outsell the 3DS.

The chance the PS5 is released in the next 4 years, or at least announced, is very likely.
Scorpio might do a lot for the console, the fact is supports 4k/60 capturing will make it the favourite console for reviewers, streamers, youtubers because people want to view and record the best possible resolution and quality.

Also they will look good in comparison movies because the PS4 pro is an excellent console at its price but the addional memory and cpu power will remove any bottleneck in most scenario's and be a game changer.

Those things are nice Geralt, and I also like the XBox brand but in order for them to outsell the 3DS they need the games and altough I think they might be able to deliver untill they announce the games it won't outsell the 3DS, but lets wait for E3 this year and next year and we will surely know :)

The PS4 will likely pass the 3DS this year, I don't think the Xbox One ever will.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Launches aligned 3DS is up like 14 million on Xbox One



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

Maybe XBone will if the Scorpio has some super bad ass feature that everyone has to have.



Xbox will only pass it if it actually gets a good amount of exclusives...
