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

@jay520, I never saw your thread. Besides, you didnt even elaborate on why you thought the 720 would sell more than the PS4 and the Wii U...It seems like you just made the thread on a whim and without any basis for your prediction just to be controversial, whereas I actually put some thought into it and I genuinely believe that this prediction will come true!

just give me 50...NO...60% of the credit when it does happen.

@The 1,

Oh, look. Where did the first point go?


2.) I said PERCIEVED. It didnt nessessarliy have better specs, but in the eye of the general public it did.

You are still avoiding my point. People may have bought the PS3 for it's blue ray or its games, but not for its graphics (at least not significantly).

3.) Completely irrelevant, you missed the point entirely...

Not at all. You have just found an unoriginal way of avoiding my point. What people see is what matters (and people don't see specs unless they're mind blowing or horribly poor...)

4.) The new IE is fantastic, you're thinking of IE 6 or something.

That was an obvious joke. I used it so that I wouldn't have to point out how ridiculous your "PS3 haz internet which boosted lotz of sales"-point is. (look how that backlashed)

5.) No, I didnt say that,...however, it did contribute to their billions of dollars of losses.

"The main selling point of the PS4 was that you didn't have to pay for online gaming like you did with the 360. Next gen though, I suspect that Sony will introduce an online fee, as they cannot repeat the same mistakes they did with the PS3 "

Yes, you did. (assuming that you actually meant PS3)


6.) I'm talking about the advantages I mentioned in the prior points.

Oh, the ones that I just demolished?

7.) Overall, last gen the playstation brand sustained huge losses, so your point is irrelevant.

No, it's not. That just proves that Sony didn't play their cards right. Now, unlike their TV division, the PS is making money.

8.) It is a FACT that they will have a tablet.... It's not a rumor that im just speculating on...

Yes, but is it a fact that they won't take a single step beyond that?

 

...



This discussion is pointless considering that almost everything is based on assumptions/guesses.

it's called speculation you FUKIN PARTY POOPER!

Everyone probably thinks like me so my powers tell me it will be be.

PS4>>>720>>>>>>Wii U

Why? PS4 got the exclusives, 720 got lesser exclusives and Nintendo got the least exclusives I want.

Oh wait I am completely basing this on the entire history of the consoles not the future. Hmmmm. I do predict those younger then 20 are a little more likely to prefer MS just because they missed most of the the PS2-pS1 era and especially the Nintendo era before that.



@The 1, Oh wow, you love arguing. Anyway, i'll reply one last time.

3.) My point was that tablets and smartphones are the future becuase consumers want to have as much entertainment facilities as possible packed into one device, and this will work to the Xbox's advantage as it is similar as it has apps, music, games, video etc.

You then said 'the wii u is a fucking tablet controller.'

... Do you not see how ridiculous you sound? The fact that the Wii U is a tablet controller is meaningless. It isnt an iPad which is packed full of various entertainment features. You missed my point entirely and said something completely irrelevant & pointless in response...

@all your other points, *insert 'not sure if serious' meme* If you are serious, then just read through my other posts, they have the answers you seek.

Also, the Wii U could be competing with tablets whereas the nextbox is potentially embracing tablet gaming by having integration between windows 8 tablets and nextbox



I don't think it'll sell more than the Wii U and the PS4 combined, but I can easily see it being on top by the end of 2020. Microsoft has the momentum right now.
