It's just a matter of math. By the end of March 2016, there was a normal amount of PS4s on store shelves. The same will hold true by the end of March 2017. So if Sony forecasts shipments of 20m units, they also need to sell through 20m units, because retailers aren't going to increase the stock they have sitting on their store shelves. The PS4 sold through 17.5m this calendar year, I guess 2-3m of that number were sold from January to March 2016. So for the currently running fiscal year, Sony has sold through 14.5-15.5m of their 20m goal. That leaves 4.5-5.5m for the January to March quarter which could only be attained by doubling the number of the previous year. That's unrealistic because the current momentum matches up closely with the one from one year ago, therefore at this point of the fiscal year the PS4 would have needed to be at least 1.5m higher than it actually is. |
Good for you but where is the source where sony said they wanted 55+ sold though numbers for the end of the year? 😱
You have been downplaying ps4's gigantic success ever since they announced the 53mill sold.
Microsoft is to afraid to let the world know how bad xbox one is selling and stopped giving numbers.
Nintendo just totally gave up on one of the worst selling game systems of all time,leaving vita to even outsell it.
And sony just keep going with the ps4 having massive success and the ball is just starting to roll.
There is noo logic for your annoying downplay.
Have a nice day.
