5 wonderful Gaming-Years for us : )



Around the Network

Greatness awaits!



Congrats to Sony, PS4 is a fantastic Console, my most favourite of all time together with Playstation1 !
The next celebration will be when it will pass 100M...end of Sept/Oct 2019 :D

Late to the party but:

Still need to play so many PS4 games.

Definitly better than 120 million total sold. I would say 138 million.

Its not likely to exceed 120mm if PS5 comes in 2020, as many suspect.

It makes no sense. PS2 was still selling big when PS3 came around.

Well, after reviewing the math, I'd say it looks like 120mm is a realistic LT number.  I think the upper bound is about 125, if PS5 launches in 2020.

So you think sales will go down very fast once PS5 arrives ? What make you think that ?

Why?

PS4 is on track to pass 100M by end of sept/oct 2019, and even if PS5 will be out worldwide by Nov 2020, PS4 will keep selling in 2020 and 2021 too. Sony is still holding a price cut, so it's highly probable if not sure that PS4 will pass 120M by the end of its life cycle.  Now, if the price cut will happen in Sept 2019, and with all the AAA titles supposed to be released in 2019, you can place a bet with everybody that PS4 will be able to sell 7-8M from end of Sept to end of 2019, which means 107-108M PS4 sold by end of 2019. So, you are telling me that PS4 in 2020-2021 and maybe part of 2022 will sell less than (120M-107/108M)=12-13M ?  you can't be serious. Even if my estimate is off by 30% regarding the Global by end of 2019, PS4 is still on target to easily pass 120M.
