One relative failure and two multiplats. Even with the $300 price point, it's exceedingly unlikely that X1 can match 2014's Nov/Dec sales. Why? Because we have had pretty good indications from the Amazon/Best Buy/Gamestop sales charts. Even Amazon's results for October make sense when you factor in preorders, which put it over the hump by the necessary +30k margin. Also, X1 had a decided price/value advantage last year that wasn't there this year vs the competition. |
The thing about those 3 games is that they're the dude bro trifecta of shooters (for this year), not counting CoD because it comes every year.
The not-so competitive price can be the deciding factor, but shooters + Xbox should have given it a very good boost, putting it close to last year.
Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.
