Agreed. selling 50k less on hardware that's $200 more expensive sounds like a win to me.PS4 was 399 for most of its life compared to 499, widely avavailbale, and was 299 its third holiday plus the pro just came out. IDK if sony will reach 25 million sold but they just over 1 million at mostly 499, spiderman 2 had good legs, older software picked up in sales if you look passed the top 10, and outsold xbox 2:1 in its strongest market. Look im usually a debbie downer but this is a good month for PS no matter how people want to spin it.

This is why Sony’s dependence on moving consoles being the pillar of their gaming business plan could be seen as a risky one. Many have commented on their margins being squeezed as it is. MS gaming business is growing despite stagnant hardware sales. I don’t think anyone would ever label PS...www.resetera.com
They also argued that ABK pulls in so much money that it can just subsidize hardware and it doesn't matter how poorly the console sells.
Then they will have a meltdown about games exclusivity being up in the air. The whole point of exclusives is to push the hardware and ecosystem. If anything the strategy they are commending is MS going third party, which they don't want to admit.Xbox Game Studios + Bethesda + ABK | OTXVIII | Some Marketers Are Always Trying To Ice Skate Uphill OT

November sales are still a bit weak though? December sales will be interesting to say the least.The concern trolling about PS5 hardware sales and Alan Wake 2 sales is hilarious when Sony is doing a record year sales wise, and Alan Wake 2 sales are not even tracked because Epic doesn't share the data.
But you will see more actual hardware declines thanks to Jim Ryan's first party drought in 2024.
Also, weren't the PS5 sales in the UK this year so much higher than they were last year that it kinda makes up for somewhat lower US sales?
Yeah should make it up a bit.Also, weren't the PS5 sales in the UK this year so much higher than they were last year that it kinda makes up for somewhat lower US sales?
So overall, maybe about the same or slightly higher than last year.Last year all stock went to the US
They think a game that's not allowed to be exclusive for 10 years will boost Xbox sales?Install Base confuses more than era at times. You have users saying PS+ price hike ruined Ps5 sales, And then you have a barrage of people claiming that COD will save Xbox sales. Like aren't they supposed to be the experts? lmao its pathetic, they went from starfield to cod being the savior
Yea, believe it or not it's what a lot of them are banking on attp.They think a game that's not allowed to be exclusive for 10 years will boost Xbox sales?
