Front loaded gen and X1 is down yoy despite being 150 cheaper. It doesn't bode well for the console. |
Well we don't know whether its down YOY since this based on both xbox system shipments alongside X1 being overshipped last last holiday which means sales can not easily be derived from its Q1 shipments if retailer were still selling last years Q4 shipments ;)
More importantly how can we call it front loaded when the only major third party exclusive to arrive thus far has been Assassins Creed Unity? And the biggest Xbox One exclusive thus far has a been a HD collection. We should wait this thing out just a tad, even if Q1 is down YOY we should probably look at the wider context. As far as I'm concerned next gen from a third party standpoint (more important then 1st party sales wise) started with Mortal Combat X and will continue with Witcher 3, Batman Arkham Knight and every other next gen exclusive that follows.
