My thinking is that while it might not be a system seller by itself, if you are willing to buy an X1 but yet don't have a ps4, what exactly do you find on an X1 that you'd want more than rev 2? I can't think of anything outside of the sadly canceled scalebound lol.
Aside from the normal reasons; almost all fighting games have been on both Xbox and Playstation almost equally until very recently.
Street Fighter, Blazblue, Guilty Gear, Dead or Alive, Tekken etc..
It was only recently that for some reason it was decided that Xbox wasn't good enough for some games (Street Fighter V, BB: Central Fiction, Rev 2 etc.) while making some bizarre choices (BB: Central Fiction is out on Switch for example).
I still love that SFV isn't out on Xbox One, despite the fact that it's been shown that SFV's native platform and inputs are the Xbox One and the PS4/PC came later and that for SFIV Xbox 360 was the defacto platform.
First of all, SF5 is a joke, from coming out with less content as a full retail game than the Rev 1 DEMO, to installing mallware to your PC, to having 8f of lag and so on, so anything I hear about that one can't surprise me any more XD.
Now, on the main crux, I just have a different definition of "recently", because I remember BBCP not coming out for Xbox 360 and all of my local scene people who were playing on Xbox buying ps3s back before the X1 was even released, in something like 2013-14. That's 3+ years ago. I wouldn't call it recently if it predates the X1's own release, you know.
There's no BB out on switch currently, they just announced that it may go there in the future, but it likely won't be CF but rather a newer BB or maybe not even a mainline BB game at all but a spinoff like Xblaze.
Ultimately, my initial point remains, even if it is somewhat recent, the situation is as it is, so not just getting a ps4 but instead getting an X1 makes no sense under these conditions. I get it when you already own the system and the game is originally on it but then it stops being on it, but here Xrd never came out on it at all. Shouldn't that have factored in your decision of what system to buy, as a fan of these games? Like, what other exclusive was there that surpasses them, exactly?
Just hoping that it may be brought to the system cause it once was there didn't make sense when people were asking for FF7 to come out on the N64 because all the other ones were on the NES/SNES and is doesn't make sense now either XD.
