401 mEEEEllion units!

PS4's starting to be the Steam of the console world. Almost everything in one place.

I remember Sony promising to ramp up production of PSVR before launch to meet the higher than expected demand. I wonder whether or not they actually managed to do that and still aren't able to put out enough units. Right now it seems more likely that there are major component shortages (probably the OLED).

As I said in the other thread. I fully expect PS4 software to outsell PS2 lifetime. With PSVR, unlimited access to games via PlayStation Store, and $5 or less Flash Sales, it is bound to be the biggest software console of all time. The amount of content on PS Store just keeps growing with more classics, and more PC syle tites, PS4 is easily the most software rich console in histoy.

That's a big jump since May, another 130 million games sold.
In comparison Steam had 370 million paid games activated this year alone, 3.5 billion revenue at $9.40 avg per game.
PS4 game sales revenue should be a lot higher though.

And with over 2 billion pcs in the world, Steam only sells 0.185 games per pc per year despite the bargains compared to 2.4 games per console sold in the last 6 months for ps4. MS taught me how to spin :)

Supposedly this is without counting PS+ games or F2P titles.
So actual attach rate of games for the system is higher than 7,5.

Also its sold through, not shipped.


Previous gens at this point in their lifecycle: (taken from neogaf):

PS3: 261.2 million (shipped)
NDS: 330.81 million (shipped)
Wii: 509.66 million (shipped)
PS4: 401.1 million (sold through)

Supposedly (lifetime sales to date):
GBA: 377m, SNES: 379m, WiiU: 92m

It will probably sell past the 1B mark.

Ps4 is an absolute beast. And this doesn't count ps plus or f2p titles either. Such a great console!
