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.

Shame I can't spend over a thousand a year making sure it can play games.


You must not know. You can buid a PC better than PS4 & XB1 for around 450$. With that it is free online(other than internet charges). PC is better and there is no doubt about it. The funny thing is I own a PS4 and I know this.


every one know that PCs are better and always will be, But its just to much of a pain to have one and even a bigger pain to build one. Thats my opinion tho. What do you guys think ?


I like having access to everything I want in gaming and access to all the TV shows and movies I could ever want in ONE machine...so I built an epic PC.


I agree PC will always be the dominant platform, but I'll always like console better.

Exactly. I have had my Xbox One on for around 30+ hours (yesterday, overnight and today) and its cold to the touch. My brothers Ps4 gets hot after 3-4 hours.

I dont see why ps4 kids say the ps4 is better because its "cheaper". When ps3 came out it was roughly 600 dollars compared to the xbox being like 3-400.
