NA is an impressive market for all consoles.

I don't know who this many you talk about are... being that Nintendo announced 10M sold as of December 10th... don't know why any would assume they meat the sold that number by December 1st or even 3rd as opposed to by December 9th which would have marked the end of the week before that 10M announcement.

I don't really agree with what you are saying. The PS4 hardware sales has never been driven by any one major title. But by a lot of small boosts across many titles. That has pretty much been the formula to the PS4 success this whole generation. 

Secondly, this whole mindset of "anyone that wants to get it would have got it by now" is just flat out silly. How do you or anyone for that matter know what the market saturation point is or how many people could want to buy a console next year? Its just a ignorant way of thinking. When talking about specific titles though that line of thinking works, like you can rightfulkly say that anyone that wants to buy a PS4 for Uncharted 5 (just an example) already would have bought one being that uncharted 4 has already been released. So guess we can use this when talking about games like FIFA.... howvere, that brings me to the next an final point.

That Price, the PS4 was priced at $199 for all of 3 weeks but only had the stock available to sustatin that price point for less than 2 weeks. That tells us that there is a big market for the PS4 at a $199 price point. This is doubly important when you consider that like every year so far, the PS4 still has a lot of great IPs still coming to the platform, either returning ones for the first time (eg God of War) or new IPs. What reason is there to assume that the same formula that has so far worked for every year to this point suddenly becomes useless? 

I don't see it doing another 20M+ year in 2018, but I don't see it doing much less than 18M either. But if the PS4 so far this gen has shown anything, is that it has this way of doing better than most expect.

Nope, launch aligned the PS4 got to 10M before the NS. For all that is worth.

I made a mistake, I was certain it was on December 1st but that post from trunks corrected me, as I could check it on nintendo.co.jp that it was the case up to December 10th :)

PS4 is selling crazy. Will it keep at it until the year end?

Yeah, but joke's on them. Just wait until they find out that Switch cartridges don't work on a PS4. Muahahahahaha.

ps4 is beasting and i'm sure this year will be even better than the last

PS4 again over 1 million? impressive!.

I can understand why some people think 2017 will be its peak year, after all looking at those numbers its hard to imagine it doing better this year, however its true that it will get bigger exclusives in 2018 and if it gets a price cut at 199 as well then... yeah it might have a shot at surpassing last year (but in my opinion only if a price cut happens).

At least i do think 2017 may indeed be the year that delivered the best games on the system, or at least the one that delivered the biggest amount of great games on the system.

You may be joking, but I've seen people at stores asking if they can play Mario on the Playstation xD

When i was 10 years old i legit was looking for some Mario games for the PS1 and i was just surprised i couldn't find any XD

In my defense back then i didn't knew what an exclusive was or anything regarding console wars.
