Well it still can sell good, just wont be close to ps4. X1 will get a great boost by titanfall, but other than a huge 1st week boost, i see it going back down to 60k level maybe 3 weeks after. What big exclusives do they have after titanfall and before E3

I'm not too sure. I believe its Project Spark and Kinect Sports Rivals. So perhaps Kinect Sports can attract some casuals but I doubt it.

A new leak suggested Quatam Break, and Sunset Overdrive were coming in the Fall.

Will a system available for under $300 be able to outperform a system for $500 for at least a few weeks? Hopefully it will... If not, it would be embarrassing for the cheaper system.

I cant imagine casuals buying a $500 console for Kinect Sports Rivals but ya thats coming in April. Project Spark doesnt have a release window yet but the Beta is rumored for March so im guessing sometime in Q2/Q3.

The leak said Quantum Break, Sunset Overdrive, Forza Horizon 2 and Halo 2 Anniversary for fall so not a bad list of exclusives this year. Also games like Watch Dogs, Destiny, Elder Scrolls Online will likely give pretty solid boosts.

I've seen the numbers posted before, but would anyone have the numbers for Gears' and MGS4's first week and their respective effect on weekly sales for 360 and PS3 (the week before, during, and maybe after)?


360 week before Gears-124k

360 week of Gears-169k

360 week after Gears-192k

This was during November so a holiday boost may have already started.

PS3 week before MGS4-128k

PS3 week of MGS4-309k

PS3 week after MGS4-171k

These arent the best comparisons since they are from 1-1.5 years after the consoles launched. Ill try finding better examples of exclusives releasing a few months after launch.


Thank you!

Yeah unfortunately it won't help much. So its really only Titanfall that will be the X1's main exclusive till September, and then QB and Sunset should certainly help, and Halo 2 Aniversary will hopefully be enough to keep X1's sales at respectable levels throughout the holidays.

Its hard telling what type of impact Quantum & Sunset will have, both look pretty neat but could easily be games that pretty much just sell to people who already own an Xbox One. Forza & Halo will do good and a price cut to $399 just before the holidays should give Xbox a solid holiday.

This gen is... interesting



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

At this rate, it might. Perhaps this very week.

With donkey kong numbers on the next chart, xone will be outsold for the next weeks. maybe titanfall will put it above wii u for one week, it depends if it's gonna sell to many people who doesn't currently own the system and/or if it's front loaded or not.

Really? Titanfall will only put it ahead for maybe a week?
