So 17.7 million for the calendar year, very impressive indeed. Console's usually peak in their second year so 2015 is as good as its going to get in regards to ps4 sales.

Huh, no. The year where it was at launch price for 9 months, with less games and no VR isn't going to be the peak year. 19M in 2016 is doable

So in other words PS4 was slightly overtracked here at vgchartz. But imo close enough, I guess.

No, it wasn't.

Unless sales dropped like a rock after 12th Dec. right before Christmas I doubt that. The PR includes 3 further weeks from what we see now in the front page (Dec.12th 53.3m). Even Japan alone, which is one of the weaker markets for PS4, adds most likely an estimated 150k units in these 3 weeks. Which leaves 450k for the rest of the world, which means US, Europe etc. in the past three weeks, including at least 2 typically strong weeks. Since I doubt it sold just 450k in the past three weeks in US, Europe, Asia (without Japan) etc. it´s only logical to assume that it was "slightly" overtracked over here.

 

Front numbers refer to the 26th, not 12th. 600k for the one missing week sounds reasonable. Heck might be even less than that, last week declines a lot so it could actually be slightly under tracked currently.
