Agreed, Supply will be the only thing holding them back this year.

Sony will be better prepared this year. They'll know exactly where to put those consoles to maximise sell-through, plus they've probably upped production.

lol this Generation Microsoft desperately wishes was Gen7 I think.

I can see the MCC and this Gears collection selling REALLY well to the core Xbox fanbase, but not moving huge numbers of people over otherwise. MCC will be the ultimate test. If they can't win November, then Gears collection has no chance on earth to do much for them (other than some tasty game sales and fill some blanks in the lineup).

The trouble (IMO) is XB1 is not gaining many users that it didn't have on XB360 so for these remakes we can't use the "New users who haven't played it will buy it for the 1st time" argument, whereas for remakes on PS4 there are certainly more people that have switched sides and haven't played them before.

Seeing how undertracked is PS4 in the most reliable country from VGC, cant imagine by how much everywhere else is undertracked...IF sony doesnt give official numbers soon, it will probably be undertracked by 2M ( not joking, huge sales means huge undertracking )

Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

PS4: 17m XB1: 10m WiiU: 10m Vita: 10m

You mean Wii? or do you mean WiiU's lifetime?

PS4 bundle ~ 300k

assuming total ~= 250k:

Xone = ~875k

PS4 = ~ 800k + 300k bundle

360 =~ 575k

PS3 =~ 250k

Amazon rankings have been a good indicator then.

PS4 & PS4 Destiny bundle were both ranked higher than the highest XB1 sku in September. Plus they still are in October.
