No. Actually tends to decrease the sales because the console owners would have more choices of games to buy.

Really? I mean, what if Halo was multiplat? Would it necessarily hurt overall sales of the game? You'd have it on Xbone and it would sell what it has sold as of now, along with PS4 sales.

By being on 3 consoles, doens't make 3x more people buy it. Unless a person buys the game for all 3 systems. Since the majority of people don't do that. The userbase is just split between them. So, if Halo was Multiplatform. And the base was 5 million sales. 2 million sales would be from XB. and 3 from PS4. Since it has more people. You get more of a chance of people buying the game, yeah. But that isn't a factor, if your console install base is large, in the first place. Like people said. If your console is going good, like the PS4. The game will never reach that massive of a sales. Unless you get lucky on a freak thing. Like MKwii. But that's uncontrollable. You'd be basically betting on a lottery.
