PSVue just launched nationwide. That alone is bound to have a tangible impact on sales moving forward, as many Americans look to dump their cable bill while picking up a Blu-Ray player in the process.
The recent news and open pre-orders with PSVR definitely compelled and will continue compelling people toward Playstation. More particularily, people that were on the fence and waiting on a price confirmation from Sony.
And lastly, it is possible that potential xbox sales are now being funneled over to playstation due to recent anouncements regarding the future of xbox.
The baseline of PS4 should be substantial moving forward. I'm not saying VGC figures are right, but they could absolutely be in the ball park. We're approaching untested territory here, so it'll be exciting so see how different strategies pay out.
