When the PS4 was first announced as a bundle, many were pleased to hear that it will come with the next-gen mono earbud headset, as opposed to the Xbox One, where you will have to purchase it separately at a still undisclosed price.

But aside from this, GameSpot reports that Sony has also announced at the Comic-Con that the PS4 will support wireless PS3 headsets, in case you still have yours and would like to preserve using the bundled headset for later use.

This is a great way to showcase many add-ons for Sony's next-gen bundle without having to raise its price from the announced $399.

Of course, one feature that the Xbox One can have (or at least, it did) was the family sharing feature, and for the past week, there has been talk from Microsoft's Marc Whitten that there is a possibility of putting this back on the list of features for the Xbox One should gamers find the need for it.

Hopefully, Microsoft does bring back this feature since this is one of the few advantages that the Xbox One currently holds over the PS4.

PS4 and Xbox One break preorder sales, Wii U not so much

In talking about the two competitive next-gen consoles, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillermot divulged in an interview with IGN that retailers have pegged this preorder season to be at least double of last generation's launch for the PS3 and the Xbox 360.

According to the report, retailers like Best Buy, Amazon and GameStop have seen an increase in preorders, and even in the selling out of units in some cases.

This is a far cry, however, from what the Wii U is currently experiencing. Technically Nintendo's own next-gen console (which came years before the PS4 and the Xbox One), the Wii U, has been suffering losses in terms of games.

Recently, the Wii U's most profitable game to date, Zombi U, has not seen any profits, leading to the cancellation of any potential sequels.

IGN added that in the case of Guillermot and Ubisoft, Wii U has only secured 3 per cent of the company's total sales for the past three months. This may be one of the reasons why fewer developers are either skipping the Wii U as a platform or remaining undecided if they will take their specific games in that direction.

In the meantime, the PS4 and the Xbox One are both experiencing the high tide of success, which hopefully they will be able to deliver during the holiday season.
