Playstation 4 sells will taper off in 2018. Shipped does not equal sold through. They will ship half that amount (9 million) in the 2018-2019 financial year and 5 million in the next one after that, so 92 million to be precise.

According to Wikipedia it has sold 3.4 Million by the end of June, I underestimated it a bit, it will probably exceed 4 Million when it's all said and done. But the other point in that post was to assert that BOTW would sell more, which it has, on a far smaller install base.

I agree with this and even though the titles says outsell the Wii the OP says shipments only so I just wanted to point that out because people got lost in the title and kept saying outsell when it should be outship......so the thread title needs to be changed imo. But I am more curious to know why you think the PS4 sales will just completely plummet next year? You think it will have a 50% drop? Wow now if that does happen great prediction but I just can't see sales dropping THAT much next year.....

Also as for the Horizon thing.....I think it sold 3.4 million before the end of June if I am not mistaken. And if you said 3 million max for HZD sales then you under estimated it more than a bit.......lastly I am almost 100% sure it will exceed 4 million when it is all said and done.....there is no probably to it.

Except we are using Wii shipment numbers, so don't you think it is fair to use PS4's shipment numbers, as well.  You know, apples to apples?  And a shipped console is a sold console to Sony and Nintendo.  They just sold it to a retailer, who will then sell it to a customer to make their money.

But yea, I agree with you that the PS4 will definitely not drop in sales by that much.
