PS4 to outsell Xbox One at launch, predicts Pachter
When asked how many units the PS4 and Xbox One will sell in their first two weeks of availability, Pachter feels that the PS4 will outsell the Xbox One, though both will sell whatever they ship.
“They are going to sell as many units as they ship, and they are probably going to each ship more than a million,” said Pachter.
With Sony confirming they have taken over 1 million pre-orders for the PS4, Pachter shared that Jack Tretton, President and CEO of SCEA, has told him that Sony will have “a lot more” available.
“Sony’s has already announced the PS4 has a million pre-orders, so the answer for Sony is a million the first day. All the pre-orders are going to get filled. I just went on Amazon and you can’t pre-order an Xbox One for same-day launch – they guarantee it by Dec. 31, so they are sold out of their pre-order quantities.
I was surprised Sony took a million pre-orders and I talked to Jack Tretton about this and he said ‘We’re going to have a lot more units behind that at launch.’” Pachter expressed.
As for the Xbox One, Pachter notes that the system is no longer available for pre-order on Amazon for launch day delivery, however, they do expect to fulfill orders by Dec. 31. In terms of sales during the opening two weeks, Pachter predicts the Xbox One will sell around 1 million units.
“I guess the first couple of weeks 1.5 million [PS4] and Xbox One probably 1 million, so 2.5 million combined, which is a lot. That’s what I think you are going to see,” Pachter concluded.

I wouldn't be suprised if PS4 sells more than Xbox One, because some people are cheap, and look for the cheaper one.

aimiami12 To the ignorant fans that have been commenting months about the xbox one selling more... here you go.
Ill eventually get an xbox one when halo comes out but the ps4 is more powerful and they arent putting the services such has netflix behind a pay-wall. Not to mention itll have party chat also
You're not to smart, If you read it, it says they "Think" it will, there was a post a month ago how Xbox One to Outsell PS4 4 to 1, a lot of things could happen in a month, Microsoft hasn't told how many pre orders they have. P.S. PS4 is not as powerful as you think, half there power goes into PS4's crappy operating system, Microsoft makes computers they know what to put n a console with out it crashing, A.K.A PS4 froze at E3.

Hes been hanging out on here. If you haven't seen all the posts you must not be that active. I have seen PS4 fanboys yes but mainly Xbox fanboys saying theirs is better and will sell more etc.
