So the PS4 has started to outsell XBox One at 2:1 even in Nort America now?

Is this a new trend or is it just normal for non-Holiday season?

Its not really normal nor is it a trend since this is like the 2nd or third time this has happened(not 100% sure).

This is something that just happened due to January being a snow month.

Wow, so it could be the start of a new, worrying trend. The death of Xbox.

Nah, Wii U, will out-sell both Xbox One, and Playstation 4, on March in USA, and will out-sell more than twice of the combined sales of Xbox One, and PS4, in March, will launch Pokken Tournament, and Zelda Remaster.

Why does it being a slow month make it a reason that PS4 could of doubled the XB1 sales. What is your thinking behind this?



Basically for Xb 360, worldwide, it was looking like having a 45-50 million generation with a new gen console required in about 2011. And then Kinect came along and massively increased yearly sales and extended the generation by 2 years. 2008 was 360's peak year and had it been a normal console cycle, 3 more years of diminishing sales would have got the 360 through to maybe 7 or 8 million (globally) in sales in 2011, a LTD of about 50 million a new gen of console in 2011 and a rapid die off in 360 sales.

This is the sort of generation Xb one is looking to have unless something crazy like Kinect happens in 2017/18.

It's interesting to compare 360 vs Xb one in USA vs the rest of the world. In 2014 RoW was responsible for more of the gen on gen difference than the USA (~600k vs ~500K), in 2015 RoW contributed virtually nothing to the gen on gen difference (~30K), while the USA's gen on gen difference was bigger than in 2014 (still about 500K, but slightly more).

Slow months only affect the XB1. Didn't you know?
