Not the real analysts, just the try hards like Pachter. The position PS3 was in at the end of 2012 Sony just had to not screw up the launch and PS4 was the likely winner. PS3 sales represent more or less the core Sony fanbase. PS3 was Sony's epic fail. Contrast that with Nintendo's epic fail up to that point (GC) and the fact that 360 was MS's epic success. PS3 sold on par with 360, with one year less on market. And PS3 sold almost quadruple of Nintendo's epic fail console. So for Sony's epic fail console to sell over 80 million means the core PS fanbase is massive compared to the core fanbase of any other home console brand, only truly rivalled by Nintendo's handheld fanbase. Anyone who thought Xbox's core fanbase was as large as PS's on the basis of the 360's immense success compared to Xb og is a very poor analyst indeed. |
Got any sources on that or are you just saying it because you believe it? The simple difference in financial strength of MS and Sony, coupled with the immense growth the Xbox experienced in the 7th gen compared to the PS' sharp decline, should have had a lot of professionals believe that the next Xbox would come out on top of the next PS console.
