You don't think the $100 difference is the biggest reason? The PS3 at $499-$599 was high priced but it was still supported by its fanbase. Not as much as the 360, but it was never too far off and it's always been the higher priced console. I think there are a lot of people out there where price matters over brand and then there are those that might keep the PS4 as their multiconsole system with it being more powerful, us knowing what we know now. With how good of a job Microsoft did at brainwashing people into thinking Xbox Live is better just because they're paying to use online, something that's no small number, these people are sure to stay loyal to Microsoft and will get an Xbox One before the PS4 and may never get a PS4. So the Xbox One definitely won't lack in any sales, it's just going to be second place to the Playstation I think. |
there seems so much demand for both consoles now that if they were both priced at 500$ they would still sell out. the price now wont make much of a difference because right now there are enough people willing to spend the extra 100$ on the xbox one.
the price will matter early next year and after when launch hype dies down a bit. right now launch hype is making these consoles sell, with the 100$ difference in price the xbox one will sell out, so it decreasing its price wont make microsoft sell any more.
