Just for curiosity, can you explain your next gen prediction? Why you think they will sell less than PS4/XB1 (PS4 release in Japan so unless you expect <300k there you think PS5 will sell less in the west)

I believe the price is going to have a negative impact, I'm expecting PS5 to be $500 and XSX to be at least $500, possibly even $600. Microsoft are also in a weaker position now than they were post-360 so that'll make the XSX a tougher job to get off the starting line.

Maybe that higher price won't slow initial sales as much as I expect.

meh, price will be a big factor in the first year, but at launch i think they'll both sell almost as much as they ship. This, and considering generations are getting more froant loaded, we are gonna see a big launch.

If they don't have a big launch... that's not a good sign.
