Check it again. The PS4 sold over 2.4 times as many units in April as the PS3 did in April 2007. In fact, the PS4 is blowing the PS3's sals out of the water. The PS4 also had a far better launch quarter than the PS2, and even sold better in January and February than the PS2 did in Jan. & Feb. 2001, though the PS2 starting doing really well in March 2001, which accounted for the majority of PS2 sales in Q1 2001. |
Are These figures from NPD or VGchartz? I do not trust the data from VGChartz.
If, these values are from NPD, yes, sales are good. But we have to see the expectations. There are more fans of Sony now, that 10 years ago. If we look at the sales of the Xbox 360 (April 2006 - 295K, April 2007 - 174K - both values from NPD) the difference is not that big. Furthermore stocks are already reset. Extraordinary sales, are the sales of the Wii (which was in breach of stock until mid-2008). Sales of PS4 (we can classify them from good to great, but not extraordinary).
