I always thought it obvious that the xbox brand will dominate NA and eventually uproot the japanese brands. The wii did the unexpected this gen but by next gen that too will be considered a "failure" in NA.
Everyone is quick to point out the the Japanese are "zenophobic" and hates the american xbox but turns a deliberate blind eye to the fact that an American console dominates America for the same reason.
I am not forgeting that it is games that make Japanese buy japanese and xbox is catered for americans but if you think that is the full story you are naive.
The next gen will be Xbox all over the others in NA.... if they American consumer have any money to buy it then.

except Playstation will take over next gen they already have europe and japan now they will reclaim us and be the king again :D

Oh I totally agree that PS will very likely globally dominate sales next gen. It's not only Europe and Japan but the rapidly emerging markets like Russia, Turkey etc where I read they are putting in the groundwork.
But this thread is about NA and there I honestly think PS will be a distant second or third. That could be a good or bad thing depending on what the future holds.

but how can you garuntee this? it's who ever produces the best console remember how domintent the Playstation was? and the Playstation 2 was in usa? and because xbox outsells ps3 by 12million unit's in america there doomed to not be on top that's total bs! if you go by that facts you wont get very far... if xbox can overtake a massive marketshare why cant Playstation??
|
I can't garantee anything and never will in matters such as this. I just THINK that the game has change since the PS2 days and every gen after those days is a new script.
The PS2 had no competiton... relatively speaking, of course. The PS3 faced a resurgent Nintendo and a massively financially backed xb360 that had gained foothold a in the market with it's predecessor.
All I can do is make a prediction based on what has gone before. It is not an exact science. You could very well be right.
I am not so sure it's about who produces the best console either but that subjective and not worth going into.

but microsoft got desperate so they released an unfinished console and the only reason it's doing well right now is because of the kinect fad and the lack of sony advertising because sony is keeping everything for the ps4
playstation and xbox and nintendo all have an even chance in america
the same in europe
xbox will never win japan sony and nintendo will fight it out
