So how much does releasing a console first in a generation relate to sales?

360 Arcade can be 129-150. 250 gig 360 is 299. Drop 50 off kinect and 100 off each kinect bundle. Given how amazing 360 sold last holiday, this one will see a much bigger spike. 

360 fans don't care about sales anymore? I am the foremost one (I literally am with my YT account) and I always bring up 360s lifetime sales gap over PS3. I think the opposite where Sony fans try to act like sales dont matter when clearly they were enjoying it last gen. 

Seems my history dates before yours. See my explanation explains why 360 fans started things up this gen. You may be too young but I witnessed last gen. Wasn't as big as this gen but PS2 fans always played the exclusive and especially sales card over xbox fans.

Oddly enough last gen I was a Gamecube supporter so I watched from the sidelines :P.

try not to generalize, cause as a PS fan i could give 2........ who wins. the only thing that will matter in the end is history, and facts and there will be plenty whether anyone likes it or not.

if PS3 does outsell the 360 then it will matter, but for many reasons. all this talk of gen's ending and what not, and on one stopped to think of it as a products life cycle.

the product that last the longest wins! crazy concept, but it works .

the product that sells the most within the window of being the most current product wins. I find it hard to believe people will care in 2015

you don't truly believe that do you? PS fanboys will rejoice, while Xbox fanboys will counter with (it doesn't matter cause the 7th gen. war is over) while PS fanboys will say (Sony had a 10 yr. vision for PS3 and 2015 is just yr. 9) don't tell me you don't see this.

i know you know this, but windows don't stop products from selling, and you can't confine anything to an imaginary window or timeline.

Correction. I find it hard to believe any sane/normal people will care in 2015 :P. Offcourse I know full well PS3 fanboys will rejoice while Nintendo and Xbox gamers moved on long ago.

(I hope this isn't ban able as I am not referring to anybody on this forum by those words I just said)
