The irony being a multiplat is going to sell more than any exclusive ever. Also no one said they don't sell systems, their impact overall isn't very dramatic. A few hundred thousand here or there. Spiderman for example only moved the NPD needle about 150,000, globally likely 400-500k for the month.

1) Xbox1 will still get outsold even with that multiplat.

 

2) The effect of an exclusive is not one month, the effect lasts the entire gen.  New customers are purchasing PS4 for its library of exclusives.

Exactly. It isn't about how much each individual exclusive pushes the needle in it's launch month, it's about the person buying a system for the first time, most likely even for a multiplat like RDR or FIFA/NBA or whatever and they choose a PS4 over an Xbox because that also gives them access to the huge exclusive lineup the PS4 has.

Which is why those minute spikes hit and then subside and sales go back to normal...

That's why PS4 and Switch continue to sell at a incredible rate and Xbox1 is struggling to keep up. 

 

People buy systems to play exclusives.  Your denial does not change that fact.

Dude thinks only Spiderman or Zelda counts.

 

All those small niche games add up, and there are countless cool niche games.
