Come on, no way the PS4 sell as much or more in 2016 compared to 2015.

 

Final Fantasy 15, Persona 5, Street Fighter V, maybe Dragon Quest 11, Yakuza and other small games against the huge Fallout 4 and The Witcher 3? PS4 will flop in Japan in 2016, obviously. 

Possible new competition, uncertainty about the success of those titles.

A new main entry in Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, and Persona are a pretty sure bet. PS4 will very easily outdo 2015's sales in 2016.

Final fantasy is uncertain, persona is rather niche and dragon quest is 2017 and multiplatform. final fantasy may be multiplatform too and there's the added factor of competition.

Final Fantasy is a guaranteed million seller, Persona 5 should finish near 400k (which is quite notable), and Dragon Quest XI isn't confirmed to be 2016, but it won't be far off and DQ: Builders and DQ Heroes 2 are coming for certain in 2016. DQ Heroes sold over 800k on PS3/PS4. These are big titles that will push a lot of hardware. Whether they're multiplatform or not doesn't really matter, especially in the case of PS4/X1. The only ones you can really argue is something like DQ Heroes or Builders where the PS4 version won't be primary (Same with XI, but even then, PS4 version is certain million seller).

Not to mention the several titles that will do well throughout year (Star Ocean, Yakuza, Street Fighter V, Attack on Titan, Dark Souls 3, and One Piece Burning Blood will all do 100k+ easily). The games I just mentioned are just in the first 4 months too.
