People have really been overestimating the PS4, I think many expect it to sell really great just because the competition is doing poorly, the fact that it isn't selling faster with said poor competition is actually cause for some worry, it would seem that consoles overall have lost some of their zest. It was inevitable though, there were always quite a few fringe customers buying consoles, these are now situated in convenience gaming markets, for the most part. |
Perhaps people berated you because from the beggining you were underestimating PS4 sales?
And from what I know Sony have beated all their shipments expectations so far. So there would be more reason to believe they will for 20M than not. How many of the previous expected shipments did you disagree from PS4 before?
