| Troll_Whisperer said: It seems that the discounts and bundles have helped the console a great deal, to the point where it's been close to PS4 numbers a few weeks. However, this got me thinking that many current sales might also have been brought forward from buyers that were going to buy it eventually. I mean, why buy it for 399 later when you can get it for 329 with two games? On the other hand, it's also possible that these current sales will increase its momentum, as it's in more homes and it may generate more buzz. What do you think? I see it falling fairly hard compared to PS4 after the holidays, so while the baseline will be better than last years 40k (pre-price cut announcement), I don't see it selling gangbusters either. I'd go with 70k or so. |
I think things will even out a bit after the price cut ends, but will have some of the momentum carry forward for the foresseable future until E3.
After E3 the sales will likely be affected by what announcements are made then.
PS4 has a couple of big exclusives coming out in the next few months such as Bloodborne and The Order 1886.
I agree that a 70k baseline seems probable.
