So we finally have the answer to the question: Will Sony sell 80M PS4 systems by the beginning of E3.

And the answer is Yes... And no cause 79.9M is not 80M, unless there is an adjustment later on in which case it could be yes again?

Also I wonder if the Fortnite backlash will impact sales? We'll know when the charts are updated a couple more times.

lolno. The Fortnite "backlash" isn't going to do anything. Just like the Minecraft "backlash" didn't do anything.

Another week with PS4 increasing its lead by 50k over the Switch. Good stuff.



These numbers are getting boring, its the same thing every week.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

PS4 still doing great numbers! If only the Fortnite backlash wasn’t effecting sales.

Ps4 wins again!



I'm still waiting for that big turning point I kept seeing posted. Has it been relegated until the end of the year again?

This wasn't the week of the Fortnite backlash so we'll know if it AFFECTS (and not effects) sales in the next updates.

I remember back when the Wii was selling tons, it had these games Wii Fit or Sports? That were always number one, no matter what games came out, those were eternal boring number ones so I can understand where you're coming from.

I wonder if we'll start to see Switch numbers push above the 200K mark during the summer with Fortnite now being on the system. We've seen Matt From the npd thread state multiple times that this game is a key driver of sales for ps4 & XBOX so maybe it's a possibility? Also it seems that this is the main reason sonu has that bundle thing with Fortnite next month to perhaps sweeten the deal even more for ps4.
