The Xbox One will be fine. Never underestimate the Halo effect. |
Like the Halo effect with the first Xbox? I'd say don't overestimate the Halo effect. I've said it many times. Halo's fanbase did not expand very much at all considering Xbox 360 almost quadrupled Xbox. The highest selling Halo on 360 was only 50% more than Halo 2. The people who will buy Halo are the people who bought the original Xbox, and we could factor in those people before Xb one was even announced. It will stop Xb one from being a dismal failure, but it does not ensure lifetime sales cloase to Xb360.

It probably won't sell as much as the 360 but the OP is about wether it will fall to Wii U levels and if retailers will be less inclined to stock as many, Halo should save it from that fate.

In the USA and UK, sure. Everywhere else? Not so sure.
