Why Does the PS4 Keep outselling Xbox? Microsoft Tips hat 2 Sony

[dBoyFresh*212]

more countries would have helped??



america and europe are xbox's only strongholds. and guess what.... it ain't doing hot there. stocked shelves in indonesia would have really helped. cannot wait to see the numbers from those "29 countries" in sept. if the data supported a significant increase in sales microsoft would be moving heaven and earth to get consoles in those countries asap considering how poorly they are selling in its strongholds in comparison to the quad... lol.

Wait till the xbox drop in Nigeria yo :fif.smile:

With them added countries I expect them to sell a couple 100k. No millions. Sales are poor outchea in Europe and droppin a console a year later aint gonna help

At @PS4 's upcoming response

The Article speaks for itself..

“Hats off to Sony, they’ve had a great start; they have been in more countries and – to date, at least – at a lower price,” Microsoft Corporate VP Phil Harrison said in a recent interview with Edge Magazine. “We have announced a new Xbox One at a lower price; we go to 29 new countries starting in September.”

Beyond social media interaction, Sony has flat-out spent more money on advertising since launch. More people see Sony’s ads, which could make or break a purchasing decision for an on-the-fence consumer.

And Microsoft is usually the one who spends more on advertising. So with all these advantages, sony is only leading by a couple of million. That is nothing in the scheme of things. They aiming for 100million sold when this gen is up. TBC

Cheaper and in more countries... What else is there to say


It's definitely not the games or even the system itself.Last-gen proved that 360 ruled, why would X1 do the same? Because PS4 is cheaper and available in more places

Xbox one is $400 now.

Xbox one is $400 now.

exactly NOW it is. it wasnt $400 from the beginning. which means the ps4 had a crazy headstart due to price
a crazy head start due to how many countries it was in from the jump.

and lastly, since the ps4 was already the cheaper console and had a head start in these other countries. you have to remember this era is the era of whats hot/whats trending. people hardly ever make their own choices without looking on the internet first. trying to find out whats hot first. that means of course the ps4 is hotter since they sold more copies, and they were cheaper. so guess what they new customer is going to buy stricktly off of trending? the ps4. it doesnt prove its a better system. it proves its trending right now due to the head start.

what?? you trying to tell me the ps4 has better games right now? thats a lie.

 

[Champion]

Some of you are reaching with this releasing in more regions shyt and acting like the 360 was moving major units in areas other than NA and the UK last gen.

Basically he is saying that no matter how you dissect, Sony is winning in units sold and when gen is over, Sony will be able to say they sold more.....regardless of anything.

That's all.

Gamers aint fickle....

We dont forget shyt if at all...

Why you think the xbox one aint doing so hot in the streets right now, because the core gamers abandoned the shyt... Microsoft aint scrapping the system. the OP put a theoretical statement.

Yep. They pretty much threw their day one customers under the bus the last couple of months. That Titanfall bundle running at $450 and then abandoning Kinect at E3 after all that hype was a bad look to me.

Cheaper and in more countries..... Those to points alone make me not so impressed with all the Sony numbers and shyt talking the Stan's do

Now yes, I would feel like Microsoft caught a huge L if they dropped in the same amount places at the same price and was getting killed like that but these jokes be BS

I mean it's simple mathematics
