To sell another 10 million units by the end of the year it would have to average 380k per week. Are you crazy?

You calling 30% of the voters crazy? Because  I agree. Can one of these 10million voters post how you articulate this happens.

Its Selling 100k weekly and will continue to do so till the holidays approach and by then the avg  required will probably be around 600k+


I figured people posting in Vgchartz would have a higher understanding of sales.



6 million would be a good achievement, 7 million great. 10 million they would have to somehow magically create new manufacturing capacity to even create them to sell, while nothing is impossible 10 million is certainly knocking on impossible's door.



I say about 8 million, but 10 makes sense too.



...Let the Sony Domination continue with the PS4...

Can Sony even manufacture and ship 7 million consoles to all the markets around the world for just 2 months?

Because that is what you're suggesting.

9-10M.

I love how all the anti-Sony posters are being "generous" suggesting PS4 can do at most 4.5-6M from July to December, I really want to know the prospects of their platforms of choice.

10M seems like too much, maybe 8M? And Sony probably can't manufacture 7M in 2 or 3 months. But perhaps they are already stockpilling for USA and UK holiday season and that is why even tough they are selling 100k weekly they still have supply constrain in some markets, I doubt their production rate drop from 200k to 100k for nothing.

10M seems like too much, maybe 8M? And Sony probably can't manufacture 7M in 2 or 3 monthsrhaps. But pe they are already stockpilling for USA and UK holiday season and that is why even tough they are selling 100k weekly they still have supply constrain in some markets, I doubt their production rate drop from 200k to 100k for nothing.

Who are the anti-Sony posters??  Isn't 4.5-6 more likely than 10? Maybe they are just using facts than wishfull thinking.

 

Source? Where is there supply constrains that is causing them to sell half of what they should be selling??

Any claims to any of this or is this all wishfull thinking?

Won't name them... just look in the thread and you will find it... 4.5 (the same as it sold in 2 months on release) isn't likely as 10M isn't... the difference being the ones shooting for 4.5 is wishfull thinking from Anti-Sony and 10M from very pro-Sony... more likely to be around 7-8M.

We have several reports of supply constraints on Europe from Sony itself, just google it.

And do you think sony isn't making more than 100k?
