Will it be in 5 weeks? Its up by less than 170k YOY and like you said, its down so far this quarter and there is no reason to think that will change since PS4 got Final Fantasy XV & Yakuza 6 in weeks 48 & 49 last year and has nothing near as big as that this year.

PS4 sold ~475k (95k/week) in the last 5 weeks of 2016. If PS4 sells 350k in the last 5 weeks of this year it will be up less than 3% YOY.

Obviously any growth is good but you are exaggerating how much its up.

It will be up regardless and be the best year since the ps2 for a home console.  So much to switch eating it's sales.

What if it only sells 300k in the next 5 weeks? It would be down YOY and not the best year since PS2. Thats how insignificant its lead is, its going to essentially be flat YOY with roughly 1.8m sold this year and acting like thats some sort of accomplishment.

"Yay!!! This is the least we've sucked in over a decade!!!!"
