God, it's been a massacre for XB1 since Switch's release... Can't say I'm surprised; both PS4 and Switch are great platforms, and make an awesome gaming pair.

No...... its been a massacre for XB1 sales period. I mean two consoles launch within 2 weeks of eachother and one has sold twice as much as the other.

Is it crazy to think that the PS4 could do 75M-77M units by the end of December 2017?

I don't think it's crazy at all; hell, I think it'll do more.  Sony is expecting 79 million sold by March 31st, which is likely a conservative estimate. If Destiny 2, GTS, CoD, and BF2 do some killer numbers this year, this holiday PS4 is going to shatter last year's record holiday sales. 

 

Well I at the very least expect it to do better than it did last year, especially with how its been tracking so far.75M sold by decembet this year is a more realistic estimate though.

X1's performance has me convinced we're going to get a successor platform sooner than people think, I can see them announcing it next year for a release the following year. They're being outperformed in their strongest market (US) by both competitors now and Crackdown got delayed I don't understand what their plan is now until it's released.



So XOne is the new WiiU?

NUMBERS!!!

inorite, it's a beautiful day when we get numbers isn't it :P 

PS4 is now more than double the XBO in our charts, and is close to 75% of home consoles sold this year so far(Only counting PS4/XBO/WiiU since they're our charts)

Also when the actual fuck will we have a week where GTAV ISN'T in the top ten?! Seriously, the legs on that game are beyond incredible o.O

Almost 4 years across 4 primary platforms. Maaaybe by the time RDR2 launches. There's a decent amount of crossover appeal among the RDR and GTA crowds, isn't there? But, as we all know, people like cars more than they like stupid spotted horses, so probably not. It likely won't drop off much in sales until closer to the GTA VI launch.

LOL, no, it's not doing wonders, but to do so bad it should start selling negative numbers!    

By the way, this week XBOne sold more than twice as much as Wii U did in the same week of July last year, and back then Wii U even had a weekly 40% boost. Surely MS wishes it sold a lot more, but it could do far worse.
