Sony originally expected 15m last FY, they missed by about 1m

They expect 13m this time... I suppose they might JUST make it with a slim and a decent price cut. If not then they will miss again.

So I think in terms of annual sales for this calendar year it will continue to show a decline. The gen is coming to an end, there is only so much a price cut and re-design can do in year 6 and 7.

But it's still kind of expensive, normally a console now should be between $99 - $199 and the cheapest PS3 model is $249, add taxes to that (where I'm from) and that's a $300 purchase. Still kind of expensive, not quite mass market price.

Another redesign and price cut (very curious as to how cheap that 16GB model is going to be) and I think it can beat Sony's 13 million target.
