Read my last paragraph again, developing markets such as Eastern Europe, Latin America, Middle East &Southeast Asia are growing in economy and consumer spending but they are not yet on par with the developed regions like North America, Western Europe & Japan.

In Spain, a western developed market, PS4 sold 535k in 2015, 560k in 2016, 585k in 2017 and 590k in 2018. So is just not developing markets in other parts of he world....I'm pretty sure in France, Italy, Germany and other european markets PS4 sold more in 2017 or 2018 than in 2015 or 2016. I seriously doubt any european country had PS4 peak in 2015 like what happened in USA.

You sure about that?

UK-peak 2014

France-peak 2014

Germany-peak 2017

Spain-peak 2015

Italy-peak 2016

Benelux (Belguim, Netherlands, Luxemburg)-peak 2015

Northern Europe (Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland)-peak 2015

Germany is the only notable Western European country that didnt peak in 2014-2016 yet Europe as a whole had it's best years in 2017 & 2018. How could that be?

Western Europe vs total Europe (Eastern Europe)

2014-5.53m vs 6.05m (0.52m)

2015-6.03m vs 6.86m (0.83m)

2016-5.72m vs 6.80m (1.08m)

2017-5.76m vs 7.89m (2.13m)

2018-5.31m vs 7.78m (2.47m)

Look at that, Western Europe peaked in 2015 while Eastern Europe peaked in 2018.
