I think sony flooded the WW market with ps4 except for japan which was a big surprise for them , there was 2.9 million ps4 sitting on store shelves or in transit with the last FY report.

You want to talk about flooding, talk about last year when 3.7m were on shelves. They could have spared a ton to Japan but didn't in order to perfectly hit their shipment target. They also shipped more last year's FY Q4, 2.9m vs 2.5m. Again imo to meet their FY targets.

I think sony made deals to ship to new countries last year, that why they were able to ship so much, this year they don't have that benefit.
