2.6 million, down to 750k and then barely or not making that number? Yeah, too costly, too soon, too poorly implemented in actual games, if only anyone could have predicted that VR wouldn't be a huge deal in 2016...

That 2.6 came from a random analyst site that was off the mark for all VR, not just PSVR. Sony never gave us their expectations. We do know that PSVR is constantly selling out though so it has to be doing better than they internally projected but let's just sweep that relevent information under the rug shall we? d:

Selling out does not mean exceeding expectations.  Wii U sold out at launch in some places.  It is sold out all over the place now too.  Many (most?) new pieces of hardware are purposely under-produced (or, at least under-delivered to retailers.)

On the other hand, I guess there is no case to be made that a piece of sold-out tech has underperformed, unless there was a supply disruption or recall.  I don't know that either of those things happened to PSVR.  So, I think it is fair to say that PSVR met expectations.
