I see this as repeat of the N64 gen. Back then it sold well in America but bad elsewhere. Now you have the xbox selling well in the US but bad elsewhere.

Yeah, just like N64... except...

X1 will sell significantly more than N64 in both US and Europe. X1 could double N64's lifetime sales at this rate.
X1 shares significantly more titles with PS4 than N64 and PS1.
X1's hardware is very similar to PS4 making multiplats relatively easy, while all 5th gen platforms hardware differed greatly.
X1 uses discs and downloads to distribute games (cheap mediums), not expensive cartridges. Thus making support more affordable.
X1 has more support and will have significantly more games than N64 ever had.

But yeah, outside of those minor details. X1 is a total repeat of N64.

All of that is kinda irrelevant to what he said, he's just talking about sales in which case he's right. XB1 sells well and is competitive with PS4 in America, not so much in other regions, just like N64.
