| Viktor said: 3DS is really showing that the main reason for PS4 beeing sold out is more due to relative low shipments. And of course handhelds and stationary consoles can be compared, both do basically the same, they are all dedicated videogame systems. There is a difference in price but the same can be said about PS4 and Xone but it obviously gets compared anyway, to me it seems to be just an excuse because it easily outsells PS4. So an obviously better selling system like 3DS has been said to be in trouble while the far less selling PS4 not. Oh the irony. |
They're not exactly the same just because you say so. They're different markets that appeal to different people. Young vs old. Public transport commuter vs driver.
Portables are great for people who commute on public transport - which is a ton of people (but not me). PS4 is not a real competitor to the 3DS. You can't take PS4 on your commute :). Competitor to 3DS are iOS & Android. How is 3DS faring against those competitors?
As far as games industry 3DS sales should be divided by 3 when comparing to console, because I say so. Do you like that? I have some logic to back it up too. Portable with 5:1 software ratio and $40 games versus a console with 10:1 software ratio and $60 games means one portable = about 3 times less $ worth of games sold.
