Forums - Gaming Discussion - Rumor: Sony to Ship 16 Million PlayStation 4 Units in 2013

I'm guessing this means 16M between the PS4, PS3, and possibly PS2 (if it's still being shipped) for the FY 2013. It would be impossible and impractical for Sony to ship that many PS4's in such a short amount of time.

Maybe they don't want to ship anymore for a year (optimistically).
In response to this report, Sony CEO Kaz Hirai said "hey gotta ship em' eventually may as well do it in bulk"

Even the 2013 they means FY2013 (end March 2014) that is a hell of impossible number.

7 million is my prediction.



this is for PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, PSP, PSV, and bravia tvs



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

I doubt, Like PS3 and 360 on their launchs they managed to sell about 1 million or little less more on their first 3 months. Because there will be not much games and the price will be relatively high. Big part of their games will be ports from this gen.

Sony shipped 3.5 million PS3 in the same period.

November... 4.5 million in the first quarter and 2.5 million in the second... WW release... if Europe was delayed to March then I thing only 4 million as of end of March, 2014.



16 million for its first year maybe? Sounds almost reasonable. Only if they expect huge sales for some reason. Low price maybe?
