Hmmm...so it will sell just under 2 million between now and the end of the year? Hope you aren't planning to take bets on this, as it will be proven wrong by the beginning of Oct (at the lastest). And the holiday won't belong to the WiiU, if that's what you're getting at. I imagine it being outsold by both the X1 as well,  during the holiday.

OT: 16 million is doable, but I'm thinking a bit higher - 18 million.

Maybe 13 million, but definitely not 16.  If it's the Wii U or the New 3DS, it's still Nintendo's holiday.

It will be neither the WiiU nor new 3DS and the PS4 will easily  sell beyoind 13 million.

In fact, I don't even think you believe such a ridiculous prediction.


I really do.

I'll subtract 4 million and say about 12.

PigPen...

you know you are just saying that because this is a Sony thread.

Come on Pigpen...


OK, you got me.

Lmfao at the 12 million predictions in this thread.

I'm so tagging this just to bump it when the 12 million mark is reached. Way, way before November.



Aura7541 on 30 August 2014

I don't really understand the 12 million prediction at all. As of August 6, Sony officially announced that they sold over 10 million PS4's to consumers. For PS4 to reach 16 million, it only needs to sell under 6 more million in nearly 5 months. Its sales will skyrocket when Destiny comes out because of the white PS4 Destiny bundle (it's listed in Amazon's Top 100 YTD and is climbing up). Driveclub will also contribute to hardware sales and of course, the PS4 will sell a lot in November and December.

I predict 18m.  PS4 will sell 12m by the end of October and another 6m to the end of the year.

3DS is not competing wtih home consoles, to that's not relevant. Also not relevant is which console will win the holidays. This is NOT a goddam thread about which console will sell the most in the holidays so please don't derail by trying to make it one. Take that discussion elsewhere or make your own thread. This is a thread that looks at a very reliable metric about Sept-Dec sales vs Jan-Aug. And it is highly predictable that in its first full year on the market a  console (any console) will sell about the same in Sept-Dec as it does Jan-Aug.And that this historical pattern will mean PS4 LTD should get to at least 16 million by 1 Jan 2015.

So if you want to refute 16 million by saying that's too high, please bring data to support that assertion. Otherwise please go and carry on the console warz somewhere else.

I'm also expecting 16 to 17 Million. More would be gravy.

I don't believe the people who expect the PS4 to sell less than six million from here on out.

You're thinking the PS4 will do worse now that it's starting to have games in Japan, and the expected Destiny and holiday hardware bumps?

(New 3DS will dampen the PS4 sales in Japan, though. Heck, it'll dampen everything else!)
