在微软改变了在其即将推出的Xbox One游戏主机上的DRM政策之后,其终于迎来了预期中的效果。Baird分析师Colin Sebastian称,根据该公司的研究,与前几周相比,Xbox的订单终于"重拾了一些势头"。此外,这份发布在Gamesindustry International的文章还指出,当Xbox One在今年年底推出的时候,其将有很大的优势超过索尼家的PlayStation 4。
Sebastian表示,"重要的是,我们的供应链检查表明,微软或比索尼有着2到3倍的优势"。不过,即使此事成真,两者在今秋推出的时仍有可能双双面临短缺。
微软早已表示,Xbox One的预定早已领先于当年同期的Xbox 360。且两家公司都没有提供其下一代游戏主机的具体销售或出货数据。
Sebastian补充道,Xbox One的高售价($499.99 vs $399.99的PS4)不会在短期内影响愿意尝鲜的科技买家。不过微软正在和渠道伙伴合作,因此在推出之后,该公司仍有望缩小Xbox One与PS4之间的价格差。

Xbox One could outship PS4 3-to-1 this year
Colin Sebastian says supply chain checks show Microsoft's new system gaining momentum, fate of Wii U rests on holiday software lineup
Microsoft's reversal on controversial Xbox One user restrictions may be paying off. According to an investors note from Baird analyst Colin Sebastian today, the Xbox One appears to have recovered from its early stumbles.
"Despite losing the headline battle at E3, Microsoft's Xbox One appears to be regaining some momentum, in part due to the used and online policy tweaks. Importantly, our supply chain checks suggest Microsoft may have the benefit of a 2-3x unit advantage at launch compared to Sony's PS4."
Sebastian expects both systems to run into supply shortages at launch. He added that the $100 price gap between the Xbox One and PS4 won't matter as much in the launch window as the core audience of early adopters are less likely to balk at paying a premium for the system they want. Even so, Microsoft is "working with channel partners to lessen the gap," Sebastian noted.
As for the Wii U, Sebastian said Nintendo's console continues to struggle. He said it needs a price cut, adding that "the fate of the platform will likely rest on the popularity of Nintendo's holiday software lineup."
