I strongly doubt this would be the PS4s peak year. The PS4 can still be as low as $199. Whenever that happens, that will be its peak year; everywhere. At the very least I don't feel a console priced at  $350 (which is only $50 less than it launched almost 3yrs ago) can be having a peak anything. 

On another note, I think what we are really seeing here is the first confirmation of the Neo coming this year after all. What other explanation would there be for why all of a sudden the PS4 is going to run into supply issues. I'm guessing that they are dropping overall PS4 production down by around 20-30% to make room for whatever amount of Neos they plan on making. 

I just hope Sony says something soon, I've been due to get my nephew a PS4 for almost 2 months now. Was planning on getting a Neo and then giving him mine. I can't do anything now cause I have no idea when the Neo is even coming out. If not this year, then I'll just buy him a PS4. 

I'm talking Japan only.

Yeah I know.... and I'm talking everywhere. Including Japan.

If a $350 console sells 1M this year in Japan (just an example), then my money is that in the first year that the console is at $250 it will sell more than it did at $350.
