... but not enough to keep PS4 from continually outpacing it, even with weak demand for the PS4 in Japan.
That represents a problem for X1. If the trend keeps up, the X1 won't match the 360 in sales. With some franchises on 360 selling as weak as they do now, X1 may begin to lose 3rd party support. It's vicious downward cycle that not even Titanfall can seem to reverse.
Outside of Halo and Gears of War -- MS doesn't have a system selling franchise that could turn things around. Not looking good. MS can only afford to money-hat so many things.
I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
