PS4 is more powerful than than the X1 and for the first 2 years the PS4 did not have a library advantage. Price and marketing is what sells consoles. You could have the worst line up in games and a console can still sell well depending on the marketing. Also PS1 and PS2 sold extremely well due to the fact they could play pirated games which obviously helped alot compared to the more expensive software selling N64. Free games is a very attractive thing for just about everybody. |
Price is most important because even if a car is the 'best' and you want it, it doesn't matter (unless you find a way to steal one.)
Second is brand. If you have the perception that a brand is good, you will get it over a product priced at the same price. This comes from marketing, word of mouth, reliability, and people you may know.
Third is games because if you invest in something and you don't have anything to do with the purchase, it is a waste.
Fourth is power and other things like entertainment services and subscriptions..
