PS4 sold 66% more units than Xbox One last month – Pachter

4.5
PlayStation 4 is significantly outselling Xbox One, Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter said in a recent note to investors.

As reported by MCV, Pachter estimates the PS4 sold 1.25 million units in the US during the month of November, while the Xbox One sold 750,000 – putting the PS4 in front by 66% more unit sales.

Before you sound the victory bell, remember the PS4 launched on November 15, giving it 15 says on sale during the month, while the Xbox One launched on November 22, leaving it just eight days.

Pachter’s estimates, which we’ll know the accuracy of once the November NPD report releases, suggest sales of new consoles have come at a cost to existing hardware. The analyst believes the PS3, Wii U and Xbox 360′s hardware sales have fallen 28%, 65% and 44% year-on-year respectively.

Pachter has always been a strong believer in Microsoft but has warned the platform holder must drop the price on the Xbox One or PS4 will “win” this generation.

ImgBurn I think the reason they sold more is because of the price of the xbox one, also no one wanted kinect but came with it anyway


I don't mind having the Kinect with it. As soon as people heard about it, they assumed Microsoft would be spying on them.


Lol, "assumed" MS would be spying on them. You need to think with your dip stick kid, the world is a lot more corrupt than you think. Why wouldn't they want the Kinect spying on people?


Retard. The thousand cameras in your home town do that for you. Why would Microsoft want to trucking watch you play games?

in terms of watching your activity, everyone does this, every program. Its in most T&C's. Don't think beloved Sony don't do this too.

Do you have something to hide? even if they were spying on me i honesty don't care because every time i go in the public there are thousands and thousands of cameras everywhere in stores, public transport, most people have smart phones meaning anyone could be spying on me lol. people honestly need to stop complaining about spying because anywhere you go there will always be something watching you. Also people saying kinect is shit obviously haven't used it yet, because i can't use my xbox one without it when i try it just feels weird because kinect is sooo useful.
