So what is coming for PS4 from here on?

Is this where we watch how low it will go now that MG:GZ has released?

Until FFXV, basically. Theres some smaller games coming out but nothing that will give sales a massive boost. Biggest game I can think of is the 3rd release of FFXIV:ARR after it was already released on PC and PS3.

is final fantasy confirmed for this year? 

also, what about deep down?

No word on FFXV yet but my guess is Q4 this year or Q1 next year in Japan.

As for Deep Down we still have no idea of a release date iirc, its also a F2P title and honestly it really dosent look great. They should have made Dragons Dogma 2, the 1st was really successful in Japan

Sony is doing quite well, and Wii U seems to be in much better shape than in the past.

Worried about the PS4. At this rate it will take some time for it to catch the WiiU.

X1 yet again amazing. Literally off the charts.

At this rate, it won't catch the wii u.

Just like you repeatedly predicted that PS4 will never pass WiiU worldwide right Zero? Wait for 2015, the PS4 will likely pass the WiiU with FFXV and MGSV.

Well, with 1 week left of March and 470k ps4 sold in Japan, now it seems obvious that Namco guy who said PS4 will sell 500k at the end of March was completely right. Probably he knew Sony was just going to ship 500k for the end of the fiscal year, and that's why the ps4 have been so consistent in the 30k figure. This was planed from the begining.

After 31 March, i don't have a clue what will happen, but i don't expect Sony pushing a lot of shipments there, so I think they'll try to establish PS4 around 15-20k (average) every week for the rest of the year, waiting until a huge japanese game launches, and meanwhile, focus in USA and Europe against Xbox One.

Ps4 doesn't have any supply problem in japan.

Yes there is, they have too much supply that should have been in other countries =P

Am I the only vita owner who finds the vita numbers very disappointing? Same with ps4. I simply don't understand how they can sell so many new games (which are not sequels of games already released on the same system) and get such terrible boosts. Sure, sales could have fallen had it not been for the new games, but still. I was hoping for at least 50k for each system.

Mostly happy with j-star vita numbers. 90k seems like a success to me. Also, good to see the "glorified demo" doing so well.

Yeah, if wii u sells 0 units from now, ps4 will pass it in like 15 months.

But I'm curious, you think those games will make ps4 sell many millions in a short period?

No they don't need to sell millions at once, the PS4 is roughly 1.2m under the WiiU currently, the gap will shrink throughout the year as long as the PS4 has a higher baseline. We'll see how far apart they are in 2015 but I'm pretty sure the gap will be under a million. FFXV, MGSV, and possibly RE7 should close that pretty easily.
