Forums - Gaming Discussion - Why is Xbox One Now Outselling The PS4?

Jega on 19 November 2016

 

PS4 has been outselling the Xbox One since November 2013. Since Microsoft released the Xbox One S, Xbox One has been outselling the PS4.

Now I am not totally surprised by this as I knew a redesign would spark some sales, but I didn't think sales would have spiked this high.

Why do you think Xbox One is now outselling the PS4?

Firstly, as far as I`m aware it`s only outselling the PS4 in like 3 countries and still can`t match it worldwide.

Secondly, people have probably been waiting for the PS4 Pro to release.

This.

Imho,

Ps4 pro is canibalizing PS4 sales. Sony will win Nov. and Dec. in USA and Worldwide easy now that Pro is on the market.
Just wait and see, Xbox will not win a single NPD util scorpion releases...

Good grief. Xbox has won the last few months, in three countries, thanks in part to the S, but mainly due to Pro preorders moving sales to November, just like the Star Wars and Cod bundles did last year. I have no idea how you expect Xbox to outsell PS4 so heavily on the next few months either. Scorpio may do decently, but it's going to be an expensive proposition four years into a cycle.

And to put how small Xbox's victories have mainly been, PS4 has outsold Xbox One by 130k in the last two weeks alone in Japan , and FFXV is still to come this month.

Why does OP try so hard, and why do people think the OP is serious.

It's The Drill 2.0

Because it's a better console. Just took the people this long to see that.

Like the great Zaire and Crapgamer say, "Xbox is the best box."

It isn't holiday yet so those sales doesn't count.

I don't think those Japanese sales will be enough to overtake Xbox One worldwide, Microsoft could clear over 1 million consoles in November.
