Forums - Gaming - Pachter: We should start every console cycle assuming Sony’s going to outsell Microsoft 2 to 1



Around the Network

Very insightful talk coming from the guy that thought Skype would make the XB1 outsell the PS4 back in 2013.



Oh Patcher, please dont change.You make me laugh with your "predictions" every time.

Im not going to sit and watch 20 minutes of Patcher talking nonsense, but whatever reason he thinks that just because PS4 is doing better than XBone and Nintendo this gen, just because of one generation, that this 2:1 ratio should be considered next gen, must be a bad reason.And good god, who would pay 30 dollars to hear you say anything.Well, I can understand if it is for the lolz...



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Hm. Pach says the ration between the PS4 and XO in NA is "9 to 8". Is that right?

As for the quote in the title, assuming Sony is going to win "2 to 1" seems extreme. While I do think we should generally assume Sony will win an even race (I said that last gen when almost everyone was picking Microsoft to increase market share again without basis), we have to remember that Playstation's dominance now is partially based on a major unforeseen screw up by Microsoft and an unforeseen lack of screw ups from Sony. This isn't necessarily more typical than last gen's PS3 launch.



We already did that once in 2006...

Suddenly he's on the side of statistics.

Nooo. They're funny. Where's your sense of humour?



Aw man, I didn't know he essentially rebooted Pach-Attack.

Well he is not funny anymore, look at him trying to pass as a sane person right now!

Your sane person detecting skills are merely average.

Oh boy, Pachter's quotes are always so funny.
