Why do you mention a peripheral (VR) as a reason PS4 should have done better? it just released in October, it just began its lifecycle. If its gonna sell any consoles it will do it this year or next year lol

Kinect released in early november and pushed XBox 360 sales up by 33% that year.  If it was going to be a major seller, we should have seen some effect this year.

Your logic mean XB1 down YoY in 2017 . 

No, not really.  We know less about the Scorpio and how it will perform or be marketed.  Depending on how the Scorpio is, it may be a better upgrade choice for the expanding 4K market.  There is the potential for Hololens in 2017.  Also, the XBox One install base is about half the PS4's, which means more potential customers.

Most importantly though, XBox doesn't have to sell nearly as much to be up YOY.  It will only have to sell about 10 million or so to accomplish that, and Sony will have to nearly double it.  Microsoft just has to eat away a bit at Sony's marketshare, while Sony really has to expand their market.  

All that being said, I think that XBox will be down YOY, but it has more of a chance to be up.

So you admited XB1 down YoY.  

And  I'm not interested in  yourquibbling and word play jokes .
