PlayStation 4 remains the cumulative sales leader in the USA with 8.5m units sold through, ahead of XB1 by 0.8m and Wii U by 4.4m.
Not that it matters too much. |
I know you're apparently the numbers guy, so is the above gap correct? Seems right. If so, I think the gap this year will be a tad smaller going into November.
However, I think Sony will be more aggressive. I see no price cuts this holiday, but I do see Black Friday promotions, with bundled games and temp price cuts. Sony won't do a price cut for 6-8 weeks like MS did last holiday, maybe one for BF/Cyber Monday weekend and one for Xmas week.

unless something kinect like happend again, yes
2016 should be the peak year
Why would XB1 be up YOY in 2016? Maybe it'll be in the first few months but then it won't keep up.

And PS4 will be cheaper too (after keeping launch price for so long), which will eat away X1 sales.
X1 Games for HW movement: 2015 > 2016. It'll sell more in Oct-Dec 2015 than it will in Sept-Dec 2016, that alone already makes the YOY task difficult.
Barring a month where something special might happen (big price cut with no response), i'm pretty sure PS4 will win every NPD in 2016, including the holidays.

PS4 will be up YoY, too but they won't eat XB1 sales away. At least not like you expect.
And the XB1 game lineup for 2016 is even bigger than 2015
Gears4, Crackdown3, Scalebound, Sea of Thiefs, QuantumBreak, HaloWars 2, Forza Horizon 2, Recore + possible unanounced games
vs. Halo5, Forza6, TombRaider, Gears Remaster, Rare Replay, Fable
bold prediction, that will probably not happen ;)

Most of those games will do nothing though, this isn't about line up quality. Halo 5 and a main Forza are bigger than that whole group of games. This holiday is bigger than next year's.

so xb1 will easily beat last year holiday because of halo5?
3m+ for october - december npd!
2016 holiday season will still be bigger than this year, because of the xbox one slim edition with 1tb for 299$ or less

If I had to guess at this point I'd say that 5 or maybe even 6 games on this 2016 list will only sell in the range of 1 million units (at best).
