Funny to see so much people making very poor prediction and subestimating ps4. We are all humbled by the adjustment, which still have a little more to be corrected.

Lol, this thread, I was saying people were too much conservative back then in August, and even I was being too much conservative..., By the way, I think I could still fulfill my betting back then saying that if PS4 didn't catch 18 mill before 2015 I would never make predictions again....

I know I made another prediction later in another thread where I said Sony will ship 20-21 mill PS4 before 2015 and around 25 mill at the end of fiscal year. I even made Kowen note my prediction...I was called crazy back then.

There was always 95% chance of him being wrong.

My prediction was PS4 to be under 17 million I think. While I thought back then it would sell 17-18 million, I also thought that VGC would undertrack PS4 as usual to be a very low number. At this point though, PS4 has once again beaten my expectations and beaten the undertracking :/

14.4, probably 15.5-16 by end of November, at least 2.5 million in December by regular consoles first year sales.

My revised guess is that PS4 will show a bit over 19 million by Jn 1st on VGC frontpage but probably actual numbers would be over 20 million

No, 15m by the end of the is probably more realistic

You couldn't know... months ago...

20+M by the end of 2014. My bet :)
