For comparison this is what other PlayStation consoles shipped after the successor launched: PS1 - ~29m PS2 - ~48m PS3 - 7m So while the likely 38m it would need to ship after PS5 launches isn't unheard of, I really don't think it can do it. I'll be pleasantly surprised if it manages half of that post-ps5. A lot of it does depend on the strategy Sony go for I guess. |
As this gen have proved, Sony will go for pure profits, not raw sales numbers. I don't expect 50M sold after Nov 2020, or 30, or 20..... If PS4 sells 10-15M more after PS5 launches at 299-249$ they will be happy.
So my guess is still the same...around 130M sold lifetime, and by far, the most succesful and profitable Playstation console ever.
