Pretty bad increase in hardware sales tbh...

Considering you had $250 ps4 slims, a pro version of the console, the VR launch, FF XV finally launching, and UNCHARTED 4 launching that year as well.... For there only to be a 100k increase says something....

Would not be surprised if the tablet market is eating into the console market as well..... Parents would rather buy kids a $99 tablet over a $250 inhome only console :S, just an assumption.

I would agree to some extent. Something is happening here and it's not good.

I wont be surprised if Uncharted 4 reach 15 mil. Sony will bundle it until the next naughty dog game releases.

Console gaming is doomed.

from 2015 : 5.7m to 2016: 6.2m+

That means they did over 500k more this year than last in the holidays.

Wasn't there a thread where someone predicted 55m? Or was that by March? I can't remember the deadline, just the number... either way those numbers are great, and Uncharted 4... dayum!

Those where shipping numbers though.

Its sold through 53.4m..... to consumers.

Its not unthinkable theres another 1.5-2m or so sitting on shelves in stores around the world.

Price cuts are also used to maintain momentum in sales...
