you forgot to include destiny timed exclusive DLC in the PS4 section like you did for COD in XB1 toasty!

you also got evilwithin for multi releases in Oct aswell and BF hardline

what are you thinking GTA5 will sell on both XB1PS4 this year toasty

im thinking this is the underrated game in terms of massive sales this yr dont see much discussion for it on here

will be interesting to see if COD will sell more on PS4 or XB1 and if the game will actually be good

I think Alien Isolation could be big too.

Wii U could be a bigger seller this holiday.

With games like Mario Kart 8, Smas Bros, Bayonetta 2 (and 1), Hyrule Warriors and many more.

Wasnt Wii U supposed to be a bigger seller May and June because of Mario Kart? Didn't beat PS4 or XB1 in May NPD and I doubt it did for June. Holiday won't be any different.

I thought the X1 only released in 26 more countries this year.

Also yeah, this holiday season is going to be very big for the PS4 and for the X1 to a lesser degree as well, even if there are still some fear mongers out there who want to make everybody believe that Sony threw this holiday away by not having a big AAA exclusive. ;)

I think Phil Harrison recently said 29 a couple days ago. Toasty probably meant to say it will be in 42 countries this holiday.

Also missing Guilty Gear Xrd (PS4, think it's already out on Ps3?) , Oddworld New N Tasty (PS4 first, I know it's timed though), The Crew (multi), Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor (Multi), Dragon Age: Inquisition (Multi), Disney Infinity: Marvel Super Heroes(Multi?), and The Last of Us Remastered (PS4).

Bit harsh to list the May NPD, Mario Kart was only out for a day :/

You forgot the huge titles coming to Wii U this holiday!



XBOX ONE/Wii U/3DS/PC

Yearly sequels and a hand full of exclusives.

Not exactly stellar.

And you  forgot to mention the WiiU ...probably on purpose.

Wouldn't stop the systems from selling like crazy though...

To OP: You are right on the money. There are probably a lot of people that have a PS4/XB1/WiiU pegged as their holiday gift of choice right now.

But this years sales will pale in comparison to next years sales. Especially if teh consoles are at $299 at that point. Cause be rest assured, if at the end of this year PS4 is at 15-16M and XB1 is at 8-9M, MS will drop the price of the XB1 to at worst $300 next year and sony will have to respond in kind.
