But, if the smartphone that they HAVE to buy to talk on anyway can play games similar enough to consoles, why do they need to buy consoles? The PS4 is outselling the XB1 for almost a whole year now. It isn't just because of the games that are on it now, it's because of the games that are coming too. If M$ hadn't screwed their announcement up and hadn't released a console priced $100 more than the competition, they wouldn't be being beat down so bad. Would they be at PS4 levels? No, but if they had sold 3 million more and the PS4 3 million less, it would have been a lot less to talk about. With the power gap, the PS4 was destined to have a lead in sales to the core buyers. But, when you combine all the PR and pricing problems and the power too, even the casuals are easily swayed to go PS4. Point being, if people realized that their smartphone could really produce impressive games that lasted more than 10-15 minutes, they might see it as a console replacement some day. |
Better controls and better graphics are the main point why people buy a consoles even if they have a smartphone.
You said it by yourself people buy mainly the console because of the games then it come the price and marketing then it come multimedia ,if you have a consoles with good multimedia functions but don't have enough games that interest people i's not true for smartphones
Even if smartphone has impressive games consoles have even more impressive games so peoples who really like video games will always buy a consoles
PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m
Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m
