They managed to sell nearly 14.3M units with the system being the highest price it will ever be, weakest library of exclusives, 3rd party games, indies and weakest bundles it will ever have also. Sony always drops their home systems by $100 for it's 1st drop in price, PS4 has been profitable much sooner than any Playstation console in history & is generating a lot more software sales too, there's really no reason for that level of a pricecue too not happen. |
Ill give u the point of highest price it will ever be and weakest first party libary.
But weakest third Party libary and weakest bundles it no ture, or at lest very debateable.
There were many great third Party games last year and also good value bundles with 2 free games, some ps+ or free extra controllers etc. (even better ones in europe, than us)
And im happy to repeat myself, but in Q1 this year, the ps4 is already down YoY in the US and Japan
I said Q2 can easily be up YoY, but Q2 is always the weakest console sales quarter. So this wont effect the overall numbers by much.
No we go to Q3. Q3 has MGS, while last year Q3 had Destiny.
If there will be no pricecut in Q3, the US sales will be down YoY. Japan schould be up, because of MGS. Europe is hard to guees, but probably flat, or down too. Just remeber, that Q3 was one of the strongest in Europe.
U need an example? Ps4 LTD sales in Germany were at 540k (or 570k, i don't remeber exactly) end of July, while they reached 1 million on October 21st.
So its up to the holiday quarter to get the big numbers and huge YoY grow.
And yes, i highly doubt they will sell an additional 5 million Ps4 in Q4 2015. Even with an possible pricecut to 299
