I think it wont have such a great Holidays Season in USA and Japan.
There is new xbox + switch in USA - i think those gonna be the hottest products of the December.
Japan is now moving to switch. The last bastion is Europe, impact of the new xbox and switch will be smaller here, but still recognisable.
For me 2017 is the last year when PS4 gonna sell more than 15 million system.

So you are expecting X1X to be a hot item?

And on a single year for PS4 to go from 20M to 15M?

September 23rd numbers added:

2017 has reached the 10 million barrier 38th week.
For comparison's sake, it took 2015 and 2016 45 weeks to do it.
For the remaining 7 weeks they both went on to sell around an additional 7 million.



Hopefully, this year the heavy marketing from CoD, D2, and BF2 + the holiday price drop to $199 will make 2017 stay as PS4’s best selling year so far.

It should be smashing the 20m+ barrier this year, will have been a dissapointing winter if not.



Once the changes are made to the weekly index for 2017, I'll make the necessary adjustments.



LOL, PS4 was adjusted upwards of 1M units and this is well before the holiday rush so PS4 hit 10M earlier than we thought this year ...



Since it's fairly obvious at this point that 2017 will be the new peak, I have made a new poll.
Enjoy!

Is it posssible for PS4 to strike 20 mln this year ? If so that means this years is the best year for PS4 sales wise ?
