So I was thinking a bit about the current market and how console sales have looked in the past. Ususally the leading console will get more games and this will start a snowballing spiral. Same with the losing systems.

PS4 and xbone have both been going after a very similar market, and the PS4 has so far beaten it soundly. It's clear that the system will win and 3rd parties have probably been aware of this for a long time. This should manifest itself in the amount of support for the systems in the years to come.When you have two systems serving the same type of gamer and one is the clear winner in the market, what reasons are left to own the losing system? Wii U clearly has a niche carved out for itself, so it's in a very different position. Even worse for microsoft, their flagship games for this gen like Halo and Titanfall didn't perform as well as they needed.

The thing that makes me wonder is how multiplatform development has evolved this and the prevoius gen. I'm not sure if third parties will shift their support in the same way that happened gen 6, but some reaction is to be expected eventually right?

Thoughts?

Is the xbone set to implode or is it not going anywhere?



I LOVE ICELAND!
