Do you think that after the failure of Xbox One against the PS4, Microsoft will stop the consoles? I really hope not ......


This gen isn NOT over.

Remember PS3's situation last gen, and see how it turned out.


There are no logical correlations between PS3 and X1, none of the advantages and disadvantages reasons for failure or success make the comment work at all.

Wii U holding on to that 60k baseline with Hyrule Warriors approaching. I can only expect it to get bigger as the holidays approach. 3DS still beasting as usual.


Indeed. And it'll get even better with SSMB, Bayonetta, etc...


Nintendo has got to find a way to shorten these gaps like they did with the 3DS though....

Your signature is so true btw. :)



Estelle and Adol... best characters ever! XD

How many people do you think rate games of PSN, out of those who buy them digitally?

Ratings =/= Sales, learnt that myself awhile ago. Digital Sales for WW HD are insane in the US. I like to say its anywhere between 400k-600k now thankz to MK8, but all i have for evidence is that All games that are rated 13th+ on the WiiU eShop (US) Top All time Sellers is over 132k. (thanks to NPD last Month). 

WW HD was already #1 awhile back before MK8 showed up.

Actually yes. Overpriced hardware, bad PR... It's actually pretty similar.

And if my comment doesn't work "at all", how does "Look at how the XBO is doing 10 months into this gen ! This will last for years because I know the future !" work ?



Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you are necessarily right.

However, the PS3 had Europe and Japan to fall back on to make a comeback. The X1 does not. The only country where the X1 can fall back is the US and it's getting beat pretty handily there, too. Outside of the anglosphere, it's pretty much dead...

Yep

Now everyone should overthink what Destiny can and will do to the PS4.
And everyone should overthink what every game in general will do for the PS4.
You can't stop and predict the beast.Only thing we can be sure about is that it will DESTROY AND RAPE the "competition"


The gen is just beginning...
Just wait for the real competition to start.

 

Halo 5, Gears Of War, Quantum Theory, Sunset Overdrive, The Order, Uncharted 4, Guerrilla's IP, SSM's IP, etc...

PS4 might dominate this gen, but it will not "destroy and rape" the competition.

Competition for first place is already over. Many things might happen this gen and it will increase or decrease sales of certain consoles, but one thing is for sure: PS4 has won the sales-competition. It might be not that big in the end as it looks now, or it might even be more dominating than now, but that one of the other two now can beat the PS4 is out of the question.



3DS-FC: 4511-1768-7903 (Mii-Name: Mnementh), Nintendo-Network-ID: Mnementh, Switch: SW-7706-3819-9381 (Mnementh)

my greatest games: 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024

10 years greatest game event!

bets: [peak year] [+], [1], [2], [3], [4]
