And then we had somebody say 1M in US alone. We shouldn't be making wild predictions off of a few days of data. 

Here is how I made my obvious prediction: NPD November+Decemmber 2015: 1.539K+1.582K=3121K.

we know that the trend show a ps4 selling better than last year with the same price. So if we assume the ps4 sells 3Million in the Us this year, the slim (the old one will probably be dead by november) will need to sell more than twice the amound of ps4 pro to make my prediction wrong, And the pre-order trend is showing the complete opposite.

And also Sony would be stupid to push the ps4 slim sale over the Pro, other wise they would have hurry to make sure it release in the holliday season, the price of the ps4 pro beeing unly 50$ higher than the 1TB slim simply prove that it is the console they will push.  And I don't think they will make the same mistake with the ps4 launch shortages( which is imo the only argument that could make it sell bad).

so I predict 1Mill+ in the us but 2Mill isn't out of the range since it will have a launch boost lol.

All I'm going to say is that you're getting a little carried away especially with the 2M figure based on a few days of data. I'm not saying it's impossible but my guess is Sony will have more room for a Slim price cut hence the Slim being at the forefront of the holiday deals promotion.

I also expect the Slim to get the Watchdog and CoD bundles but I'm not too sure about that but since the Standalone Pro is already up for preorder at $400 it looks like no bundles, if they do they will probably slap another $50 onto the price tag.

Also releasing the Pro during the holiday and giving it a price cut a few weeks later would be extremely shady of Sony, another reason why the Slim will get price cut and deals ahead of the Pro.
