Forums - Microsoft - The Xbox One Is Doing Extremely Well........

well...........it has settled into selling less than the wii u weekly. even the people wishing for it's failure was giving them the 2nd place trophy before hand, now it looks like it will finish 3rd.....

but yeah it is a successful console bringing $$$ to it's creators and enjoyment to the portion of gamers that chose to buy it.

Who are you kidding.  This was to be the gen they win.  Yet they managed to lose most soon to be all the market share 360 gained.

They are doin awful aka 5.5 to 1 sales disadvantage in germany and ps4 has taken 63% share between them of x1s home market.

Extremly bad no matter how u spin and excuse their mistakes.

Just because A is doing great, doesn't mean B is doing poor.

I'm not claiming X1 is going to be the top selling console this gen, I'm just pointing out it won't be financial disaster like PS3 or get pushed aside like Vita.

X1 can still be a successful platform and that isn't spin. You probably consider the PS3 successful, but it lost much the PS2's market share and hurt Sony financially.

Agree. The 360 comparison isn't fair. 360 gained a lot of PS2 owners, that is a simple fact. In the end, things balanced out a bit, pretty much everyone was a multi platform owner (360 and PS3) last gen.

That doesn't make any sense.

Pointing out the X1 can still be a successful platform isn't spin. You probably consider the PS3 successful, but it lost much the PS2's market share and hurt Sony financially.

Fact, Its doing worse then PS3.  

Reality is its not a succesfull platform and nothing at all about the sales over the past 6 months shown any inkling it still can be one no matter how much you hope and spin things. But keep hoping, facts and real world numbers show otherwise.

If someone needs to make a thread just to justify a purchase of a piece of electronic equipment, it can only mean that they are having serious doubts about their purchase. And to alleviate those doubts, they then start listing arbitrary reasons, many of which are mere personal preferences, as if they are trying to convince themselves that they haven't made a mistake.

I mean, they already purchased the item, no need to convince themselves anymore. They just need to enjoy it the best they can with all the limitations it has, it still serves its intended purpose. 


this. if you like something and you bought it its fine. If you dont get rid of it. simple.

I got Vita it aint the greatest but im not going ot make a thread on why it is great. I like it and thats enough

OMG!!! I did not noticed that and I bet a lot of people did not either.  So the x1 got desperate way before by sacrificing kinect and it did not do any good as sales are the same as before. The first  pricecut for sony if I remember right increased the baseline a decent bit. 

So to all the people saying that the ps3 also started bad and the x1 can still pull ahead in the future, remember that the ps3 did a hell of a lot better than the x1 at the start even with $600 pricetag, the x1 only had a good launch. Also the first bandage sony applied worked perfectly while we are on the third x1 attempt and its still doing awfull. 


But.... but... the graph. Maybe you just don't understand that higher up lines means more?

Not sure if serious. But if you look at the lines, the ps3 started at a lower launch and got to the high point much quicker, while the x1 started with a higher launch and is climbing much slower to the point the ps3 already beat it at the same point and time. So having the higher lines means nothing if is going up a lot slower and everibody else is passing it.



It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.

Oh I see, so by a "hell of a lot better"..."at the start"  what you really meant was "just now barely selling more than".



Well... this is me just passing through.

Please carry on.

PS3 also bled a lot of money. Something I don't believe X1 is doing.

If X1 can't be a success then PS3 was a disaster. PS3 chased away much of the market share and lost money. Yet people still consider PS3 a success. The X1 can be a real success in comparison.

Once again, no spin coming from me  For the entire gen you'll be pissing and moaning about the X1 because it will have relevance.

Xbox has always lost money, X1 with kinect unbundling likely will be a black hole.  Hell how many millions did MS blow on controller alone.  Just a overall bad investment given X1 low and falling sales.  X1 is nearing titanic failure for MS, PS3 still did more then any xbox ever has or will.

Soon enough people will be questioning can X1 pass the original xbox sales given its constant market failures.

X1 has no relevance now nor will it.  It pretty mush lost all that in a single hour at E3.  This gen is nearing over for it,  relevent is a pie in the sky possability for it now.  Look at its sales it been down hill since the strong launch.  Its looking like it may end up in a DC situation where it started strong but just fell apart soon after.  Nothing about its sales shows anything posative nor anything that may support future relevence.  

Hope all you want, sales dont lie.
