One suffered a very big and equally predictable drop, NA accounting for almost 300k out of 515 shows the skewed balance in global numbers but also shows that my assumption all along is possibly correct (the One will win the US market, and likely the UK when all is said and done, and might end up at around 70% of the PS4's lifetime totals if things go well). At the very least; there is potential there for this console to do very well. |
I don't agree with that assumption. Here's my take on it.
That assumption of yours is only correct and possible if one of two things happen. Either the XB1 remains cheaper than the PS4 in both NA and the UK for the remainder of this console generation or that somehow at the same price of the PS4 the XB1 still outsells it. We have seen that the latter of those two things isn't possible which leaves X1 with always being cheaper to sell better.
Problem with a price war, which is basically what we are talkin about, is that there is a point where it stops to matter.
