Switch hardware must have had disappointing numbers if it did worse than the PS4.

Replying to an older comment, but the actual increase in revenue was $9 million and the analyst said the increase in hardware sales was due to the Switch.

9 million divided by 300 is only 30,000 units. Japan sells ~24,000 a week. The US is a bigger market than Japan, so the numbers are much higher. With this in mind, PS4 likely saw a decline year-over-year. I point this out as everyone is cheering "YEAH PS4" but in reality, sales are likely down. Basically, it's the kind of a sand castle.

EDIT: Also software is down 20 percent. This is mostly due to Overwatch I'm sure, but it coincides with the decline in PS4 hardware.

Sales are not down YOY for it, they just told us it was up, and that its the fastest jan-may sales the PS4 has ever seen.

It sold 7m+ units in the first 5months (of 2017).

Maybe thats only world wide, and things are bad in the US? but I doubt it. I think your just wrong.

 

"basically its kinda of a sand castle"

Someone expecting sales to collasp soon huh? Guess we ll see in 2018.

I dont see why though, what causes its sales to drop like a rock in your opinion?
