POWER DOES NOT SELL CONSOLES.

 

You know what Lucas? You're right about that. Power doesn't sell consoles. It never has. So it's a good thing PS4 isn't selling purely because of power

It's becoming a such a ridiculous soundbite. What he really wants to say is power STOPS your console from WINNING/SELLING.

Obviously that is not true.

I don't really know how Lucas can look at the numbers we have and suggest PS4 is in trouble. It's done more so far than WiiU will likely do in its lifetime, there is absoloutely no change on the horizon for WiiU sales. He couldn't tell you why things will change either, just that they "will"

"The horsepower races are over. We can always refine tech horsepower but it's not the focal point any longer.
And now in the 8th gen when it is SHOWN not to matter it will come down to who can make the best games.
As we all know, there's only one entity out here who's gonna win that contest.
And that is your Game Awards' 2014 Developer of the Year: Nintendo."


Sony had ... barely any worthwhile exclusive this holiday (not trolling, their 2015 line up is killer)
Xbox had Sunset (awesome but niche and didn't sell well :(, Forza and Halo Collection which had its sales cut short from that mess)
WiiU had SMASH, a mainline, incredibly well received interation, along with MK, and Bayonetta, another niche but incredibly well praised game.

And it didn't come close to XB1/PS4 this holiday.

What happens when Gears/Halo/Uncharted/GT/GOW ect hits?
