It may even get the 125m point, half way from PS1 sales to ps2 sales...damn. By any chance do you know how PS2 was doing around this time in its life cycle? |
The PS4 is currently ahead of the PS2 by around 1.5/2M if launch alligned. Over the course of the year though the PS2 will pull ahead because it was selling more every month on average than what the PS4 will likely sell these coming months unless sony gets aggressive with pricing.
Speaking of aggressive and a little fun fact, at this time in the PS2s life its price had been cut by 40% of its original price (from $300 to $179) so the PS4 is actually following the same price path of the PS2 (albeit relatively). The PS4 needs to be at $240 to have seen the same kinda price drop that would allow it match the PS2s pricing path.
