1. Yes, it does. Consumers will gravitate towards to a cheaper console, assuming power level and game remain near identical. Can be seen with the huge surgein One sales since the price drop. Doesn't mean the PS4 won't outsell it, but it does mean the One will bite in to some of the sales. 1. a. Yes, but for most of the year it was the same price as one of the consoles and had better games than the other. Now, it is easily the most expensive and doesn't have a truly heavy-hitting game out. 2. c. Newsflash, multiplats are on multiple consoles, hence the name, so they wash out. And what PS4 exclusive that came out this quarter matches up to Master Chief Collection or Smash Bros? The answer is none of them. LBP3 could have been, but the initial reaction to it was lukewarm. |
We're talking about shifting consoles, not pushing one console ahead of the other.
2. Multiplats have shown to be far better console pushers then exclusives. The only thing the Wii U has is Smash pushing it and MCC bundle is substatially behind the ACU bundle. And GTA and Destiny bundles have pushed PS4 sales much higher than any other exclusive bundles. Exclusives literally don't matter when we're talking just pushing consoles.
1. I didn't say price, I said Wii U being cheapest doesn't matter, cause right now its effective price doesn't make up for its weaknesses.
If you want to say hey PS4 wont sell more in this month vs XB1/Wii U, only then does it makes sense to talk about Exclusives and competitor price alone.
