The One had a really good launch. It's just going to be completely dwarfed by the PS4 when we get its EU numbers.

To those saying they are the same because MS would have sold 1M if it only launched in NA, that's a silly comparison. If Sony relocated all of their supply to NA, instead of launching in 20+ other countries next week, they probably would have sold ~3M.


And if MS had 3 million to sell world wide they would have sold 3 million at launch. Whats your point? At this stage in the game they are still even until supply catchs up with demand. All you have is wishfull thinking at this point. Something fanboys everywhere get when they want to see the other guy go down in flames. Personally I'm happy Sony sold a million because before E3 I was concerned they would not do very good this gen and we would be looking at the real possibility of no PS5. My concerns are put to rest. Now I  want to see the Xbox One recover because if we loose MS from the marketplace there will be no reason for Sony to step up their game next gen. Since we are all gamers, we should stop bashing each other and support Sony, MS and Nintendo. If any of these manufactures leave the market, we all loose. I feel real good about both Sony and MS now just wish Nintendo sales would start to pick up. Based on how much dust mine has been collecting I'm worried :(

Yours is an if that could never happen.  Mine is one that could happen if Sony chose to have it happen.  That fact is Sony has way more supply.  My point was some think the launches are on the same level, when they are not.

And I'm not worried at all about Sony being on top.  They were for the PS1 and PS2 era and never got lazy with releasing quality games for their players.  Nor did they just drop support to give 100% to their new console.  They would do the same this gen, even if they end up 20M+ ahead of the One.  Personally, I think MS has brought more negatives to the console business than they have positives, so I wouldn't really mind if it became an only Sony/Nintendo biz.

Maybe SEGA could return to bussiness *-*

And I'm favorable about the phrase "A scenario where Sony dominates is best for the industry"
