General Next Gen Console Thread

Except MS isn't directly selling ANY units. You have to look at the various retailers to see who is probably in the lead. Again, your either in denial or praying for a comeback if you think XB1 is in the lead. The question is just how big of a lead does PS4 have.

XB1 can never be in the lead globally. Microsoft pulled 8 launch regions out of 21 because of ''localization issues''. I think that is bogus, for example Switzerland with it's main languages French and German, was pulled from launch, while Germany and France both will be launch regions. It is very much possible they are experiencing difficulties with production of the XB1 and to secure the US market, they pulled the 8 regions to have enough units in their domestic market (thus I'm directly affected). The European launch regions will receive Fifa Soccer 14 and we (the Benelux and other affected non-launch regions) will be compensated by giving all pre-orders that stood before the compensation announcement to get 2 at this point unknown AAA titles at launch for free. The projected launch date for us is somewhere between mid-February and the beginning of April. Microsoft is fighting for the US Market, but is having trouble everywhere else.

Regardless of what the numbers say, it won't matter one damn bit. MS will still sell millions of XBox Ones, life will go on like normal, shit will still be the same as it was yesterday, and in 5, 6, 7, however many years, we'll be talking about the upcoming launch of the Xbox Whatever and the PS5. So there really is no point whatsoever to all of this "who's gonna win, who's gonna sell more, this console is gonna kick that console's ass". If you truly believe otherwise, you're also in denial, or else mentally retarded. It's gonna be same shit, different day.

Agreed.

You XB fanboys have ignored the other data in this other threads posted re: (1) PS4 having a larger supply than XB1; (2) Amazon's video game sales for 2013; (3) reports from various retailer employees re: preorders etc...

No one is ignoring anything. You're being delusional as you usually are. No one is arguing that the PS4 is going to outsell the Xbox One out of the gates. We're simply saying you can't just pick one retailer's "more info" list and use that as a source for the entire world.

Besides, as I said before, what's in it for you if the PS4 ends up outselling the Xbox One lifetime? I don't care which one outsells the other, I just hope they're both successful so that there will be a ton of support for the both of them and that they both end up making additional consoles after these launch. I used to think you're just playing around, but with all this sales talk where you seem very serious, I'm beginning to think you're like these pubescent kids I read on the internet beating their chests about which console is better and which one is going to sell more. It's weird.
