Forums - Sales Discussion - Prediction: The Xbox 720(?) will sell more than the PS4 and the Wii U combined

The PS3 browser is terrible I have used it like two times ever.



Around the Network

I predict Playstation brand to keep falling, Vita keeps going worst to worst.

Wii U will sell pretty damn good and it will be hard to Next Xbox compete because it will be late 1.6 years or so but its anyone game.



wow.... the ps3's browser was one of it's main selling point? R u really being serious with that.. and ur saying the ps4 doesn't have or won't have a graphicle advantage over the 360? I guess this means u really are joking.. why release a nexgen console if it isn't capable of more than that same companies current gen console, unless they want people to buy it just because it's the next new thing..

no because:

1. japanese will never buy many foreign consoles as long as own consoles aren't much worse. ps4 could cost 599 bucks and xbox 199 at release with same games, graphics and controls. microsoft would still lose...


2.  in some european countries, i don't see people purchasing as much microsoft as nintendo or sony consoles (italy, spain, france and some more)

100% agree.

If we only look at the sales in the USA then yes, I'd say that it may happen. But is we look at it in terms of global sales, then they don't have a chance.



Please excuse my bad English.

Currently gaming on a PC with an i5-4670k@stock (for now), 16Gb RAM 1600 MHz and a GTX 1070

Steam / Live / NNID : jonxiquet    Add me if you want, but I'm a single player gamer.

Can't see it outselling them both combined but, it is possible that it could win the next gen.

about as likely as the Vita outselling the 3DS before the end of the generation

It's like I've stepped into an alternate reality where the company with the best selling handheld this generation, the best selling handheld last generation, the second highest selling home console of all time (despite weak sales in the last 18 months), 

Third best.  It'll overtake the PS1, but it hasn't yet :P



Win the generation? Possible.

Outsell both combined? No chance.

Xbox brand isn't strong enough outside of English speaking countries. Even this generation, with everything going the right way for Xbox, it's struggling to hold 2nd place. It currently isn't the number 1 console in any market and the 1st party content, from what we currently know, isn't strong enough to set it apart from the other 2 in mainland Europe or Japan.

Sony wont make the same mistakes with PS4, as they did with PS3... And Nintendo actually now realise that they need 3rd party support to go along with Mario games.

3rd parties will be giving less exclusives, due to increased costs and a Kinect-like camera for the nextbox wont be as popular as Kinect was.

Next gen will be down to 3 things -

Price
Exclusives
Online Capabilities

Price could go to any, we have no idea yet.

Exclusives, likely to be a Nintendo win. Wii Series, Mario Kart and 2D Mario can/will sell 20 Million units.

Online, again could go any way although probably between Sony/MS. Both consoles excell in different things, will be really interesting to see how services are improved/changed.



                            

theirs two possibility that the WiiU will still sell's way more than ps4....................and its not hard to make games since 360 and 720 use the same GPU on the WiiU

Wii will sell more than 100 million by 2013

PS3 will overcome 360 by 2013 by 720,000+ with the ban on 360

360 will be the best performer console but will never beat sony...sony has lots experienced  with the console business not making best hardware but with dirty strategy that killed SEGA dreamcast will do the same on 360.....and 720....they done it before will do again......they don't like to be 3rd place...



People really take this ridiculous thread serious?

It is obviously a joke.
