PS4 will sell more in its first year than PS3 in its peak year

So PS4 peaked early.

That's kind of what I was thinking. I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being the PS4's peak year. Sony has hyped the hell out of it and it has worked. More hyped than any other console so far. Unfortunately much of the hype has been about the power of the system but little on the games. People were clamouring for it. I don't think this momentum can really keep up. It's still going to sell well, but not to the same extent as where the bar has been set for it. It'll be down YOY, the hype is fading and many of the games haven't come out yet or have been pushed back farther and farther. 

No way its first year is going to be its peak year. That's almost unheard of in video game console history. As far as I know, it only happened to GameCube and PS4 ain't no GameCube.

With more software, a price cut and more people that have friends with PS4s, it's guaranteed to be up YoY.

I'm willing to bet on it if you want.
