It's not impossible, people have to remember that the Xbox brand and Microsoft is very strong in America, Sony and the Playstation is not. Microsoft has far more money than Sony to market the Xbox One. And there really isn't anything revolutionary about the PS4, i'm sorry to say. If Microsoft continues to innovate and keep the Xbox One fresh with software updates and new technologies like Kinect, then they will pull ahead atleast in America. If people are willing to look past gaming and are intrigued by the entertainment stuff the X1 offers than it will do well. It can't do any worse than the Wii U.
My prediction is that the PS4 will sell better initially because of the price advantage but the Xbox One will still have moderate success in it's first year. If worse comes to worst and the Xbox One comes out of the gate slow then I would expect a price drop within the first year. But I think it will all work out once people have the consoles in their hands and can fully assess everything.
