I don't understand what went wrong?

1. Release console 1 year before everyone else
2. Don't advertise at all
3. Release game every 6 months
4. ???
5. Profit!

Tablet controllers are the wave of the future, I don't please understand what happened.

Amazing how fast they managed to do it. Before it launched I don't remember anyone expecting it to do it this fast.



It happened that fast without The Last  Guardian. I am very impressed.

What makes it so significant is that it likely actually happened on the 21st. Which would make it exactly one Year after the PS4 was actually announced.

Either way, nobody expected this to happen 12 Months ago.


I did, now where is my cookie?  Always bet on Playstation baby

Great, so is sony going to give us something free? If not is there a reason I should care?


Theyre offering you 3rd party support.

Be happy!


I guess, I'm just not a fan of a certain company like others seem to be

also unless sony gives us something free or you have sony stocks I don't see why you'd be happy a billion dollar company is making more money...

just me tho 


Actually Sony is doing awful financially.

It could have happened in 2017 and you could have said the exact same thing.

What you say doesn't make much sense, not as a gamer, and not as a modern person benefiting from things developed by billion dollar companies every day.

We'll I buy consoles for the games even if the console sells bad or in last place

which is why I owned a xbox over a ps2...companies mean shit to me

That's fine, justify your likes and dislikes however you wish (I suppose xbox is not made by a company you give a shit about either).

It's pretty simple though - no consoles, no games - and for Japan PS4 is the only viable console now.

Ps4 sales in japan kind of ruined this celebration



Good for them, I guess?  It's not surprising to me that "Hey, a console manufacturer is selling consoles!".  Lets make posts about the obvious to let everyone else that already knows, know that we know too.

I guess I just don't see the reason to get excited over it...even if it's really just about the fact that it just steamrolled by a year older console, and allows certain people to flex their fanboy e-peens.  It's still not something to get excited about as the "U"'s sales have been pretty sluggish from the get go.  "Hey look, we just ran past that paralyzed kid and won the race!  Lets celebrate!"   =p

The only thing that should be surprising is that it managed to do it with almost no games to warrant such success.

Go look at the front page.

I will never understand people that come here to whine about people talking about video game sales.
