2015 or 2016 are much better candidates for 20 million a year. I'm gonna say no. 17M max in 2014.

Not in a million years.

PS4 is doing good enough, but is nowhere near generating the buzz to able to pull such numbers. For the Wii there was a pretty obvious reason why sold so high for a few years (easily out of the leagues of any other home-console mind), but why would the PS4 do the same? What does it have? I'm not even sure the PS3 and 360 combined managed that in any given year.

I agree with you, but the highest combined for PS3 + 360 was about 28m.

Yeah I wasn't sure, it's still fairly close though .

2015 or 2016, price cuts need to happen happen.

Ps4 is The one console of this gen that can, a sales juggernaut. Best hardware best games and as long as price is inline it could happen. Hmmmm 2016 if GTA6 Destiny 2??? and GT7 ohh and proper (no multi gen)COD drop in 2016 i could really see it happening also TLOU2 or any other ND game.

I Believe PS4 will never go above 15M in sales for one year. it doesn´t have that mass appeal that Wii or PS2 enjoyed. It will have some really good years, just not at those levels.

PS3 peaked way in 2011 because the PS3 didn't start doing good until 2009. PS4 won't live as long. The PS4 won't reach 25 million. Even the PS2... the best selling console of all time... peaked at 22 million I believe. PS4 will probably peak around 20 million IMO. Maybe not even that. It will have sony legs.. not the high peak and sharp drop of the Wii.
