It will sell 16 million units this year, it sold +4.2 million in 2013.

Calendar:

Q1 ~4 million (~8 million by March 31) (yields improve)

Q2 ~2 million (~10 million by June 30) (less demand after launch)

Q3 ~3.5 million (~13 million by Sept 30) (Q3 is a good period for Sony consoles)

Q4 ~7 million (~20 million by Dec 31)

=20,000,000 after its first full year!

Feasible or not? I think it is.

PS3 for comparison's sake!

FY06 - - 1.7 1.8 3.5 = 3.5
FY07 0.7 1.3 4.9 = 10.4 million by dec 31 2007

PS4 will be double that of PS3
399>>>>499/599

Next gen is here folks, with the Japanese launch still away, and games like inFamous, Driveclub, wATCH dOGs, Destiny, Uncharted, The Order, Alien, Evolve and a bunch of other announced and unnanounced games, coupled with a killer social media hype, this sales goal will be certainly achieved!
Feel free to bump this thread whenever the next quarterly results are published to see if my prediction is on track or not.

Ok. Lots of people in Seece's thread predicted that.

even i have written down 13 million units in 2014, so yours is feasable assuming

joebro is a bit high i think i doubt they will make more then 1.5 million a month ( 18 a year

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
