Question is, can Sony sell them all. I don't believe they will... The PS4 will certainly sell the most consoles this year by far, but I just don't see it getting the 16 million it needs to go over 20 million at the $400 price point. I predict 12 million sold this year to bring them to 16m by the end of 2014, which in itself is extremely impressive. The Wii was a special case that appealed to more varied audience... including people who typically don't buy video games or have much hardcore interest in them. Sony's PS4 is at it's core a powerful, gaming first console.  It doesn't have the same appeal.

I might agree if i had not seen grown men runnning into stores asking for PS4 mid jan, if the guys i talked to werent hunting PS4s since 9am and it was around 4pm.  U turns on streets casue you miss a light massive breaking into the parking space and a dash for the door, the chick at store with 15 callers waiting all asking for PS4 (her word)  I really dount old non gaming folks were doing that trying to get a Wii.  Mind you this is a massive market i talking about.

I think the PS4 appeal had turned into something else a force of it self.  If this thing had Uncharted or Gran Turismo as a launch title id get it, but given the software line up.  PS4 is a force driven by its own name and brand strength nothing else.  They want a PS4 what game comes with it seems irrelevent right now.

Part is Nin non existant marketing gamers abandoning nin after waggle and MS still feeling theie early frak up getting owned by Sony at E3, and the price and evil spy camera and the facts its MS.
