360 dead? Can't believe how quickly it went below 30k. It's not like One is stealing sales from it

Fun fact, both PS3 and 360 are down massively YoY.

09th Feb 2013

PS3 170,907 (-1%) 74,596,514
X360 133,157 (+9%) 75,717,186

 

X1 sales are respectable considering its the most expensive console on the market. That's an indication sales will be strong after price cuts. As was PS3.


WROOOONG! Xbone sales a disaster. MS is going to have to announce a $399.00 kinectless bone at E3 at least a year before they wanted to drop the price. Also dropping one of the biggest features they were pimping. PS4 will easily be outselling the Xbone 3:1 and that's a best case scenario. Unless MS straight up buys exclusivity for every major franchise this thing is DOA.

How am I wrong? We actually agree price cuts are necessary. I think there is a good chance the X1 with Kinect will be $399 by the end of the year.

PS4 is doing much better now, but does that mean all Xbox 360 owners are going to get a PS4? No, its likely PS3 fans buying a PS4 while Xbox fans are waiting for price cuts.

Sony gave away much of userbase during the 7th gen. The only way Sony is going to get it back is if MS gives it to them. Just bear in mind MS has more money to compete so lets wait and see what happens.

PS4 with 61% marketshare this week...without Japan

japan won't be very relevant in that percentage for more than 2 weeks.

Haha, want to bet? PS4 should sell more in its third week in Japan than WiiU WW that week, barring complete sellouts and lack of stock.

You will regret it. it may even be hard for ps4's japan 3rd week to compete with wii u's japanese sales for the same week.

Alright. Conditions?

This should be interesting



NYANKS on 16 February 2014

Damn, well done Sony. I hope the PS4 can keep the lead when Titanfall drops. I hope it doesn't overshadow Infamous TOO much :(

Problem with that though is PS3 is over 1/3 of its sales. While 360 is under 1/4 of its sales. And PS3 is somehow managing to outsell Xone, vita, Wii U etc.

360 being down more than PS3 doesn't change the fact both have seen a massive decline. I'm just pointing that out.

PS3 is still doing quite well. A major release in Japan gave it a boost there and its doing pretty well in developing nations.

The price cut will come by E3. There will be a kinectless Xbox for $399.00 and they'll keep the price at $499.00 with kinect. Xbone is dead everywhere except North America but it's close to being on life support. They bungled this generation and unless they just drop trillions to get exclusivity for major franchises they're going to be outsod at least 2:1 world wide and maybe much worse.



Zelhawks37 on 16 February 2014

Okay, so is this going to be a repeat of Gen 7? I do think PS4 won't be NEAR PS2's numbers, but man, One and Wii U.... shoot. At this point, I want all console manufacturers to remain decent now, which seems to be a tall order. Nintendo is looking real bad there, but handhelds... man they got that down.



Estelle and Adol... best characters ever! XD

For some reason I thought you were responding to the "360 dead?" comment. Which while both are massively down, the 360 is more down and below "dead" consoles. But I guess I was mistaken.

no it wont, he's not about that life. And even if he did, he would just turn tale and run when he is proven wrong as usual

Ouch. The xbox one is not looking so hot.
