Sony expects to sell 32 million consoles and handhelds next FY - Is it possible?

Honestly, I don't even see how they think this is possible. Who the fuck makes their shit up?
Using current rounded VGC numbers.

PS3
2010 - 14m
2011 - 14m

PS2
2010 - 6m
2011 - 4m

PSP
2010 - 9m
2011 - 7m

PSV
2011 - 2m

It makes no conceivable sense that they think they will get anything more than these following 2012FY numbers:

PS3
12m

PS2
3m

PSP
5m

PSV
10m (MAX with price cut, BIG holiday push, AND bunch of new games)

(I actually expect PSV to be more around 6m as I don't see a price cut this FY)

For a total of 30m

That's being very generous with PSV and normal end of life declines for other three platforms.

Your estimates for next FY are wrong in my opinion. I dont see PS3 slowing down to 12m, at worst it'll be down to 13m. It has the smallest drop YoY of all consoles.

I have a harder time understanding why people like you only expect around 10m for PSV+PSV, is Sony that optimistic that they can miss their target by almost 50%? When they expect this much next FY you can bet that they have some major things up their sleeves.
