Shadow1980 said: So, given these numbers, it appears that as of Dec. 3 the PS4 has sold 17.2M year-to-date in 2017. Last year it sold 3.4M in the 26-day period of Dec. 7 - Jan. 1. If it can manage sales at least as good as that in the 28-day period of Dec. 4 - 31 (assuming that they once again cut the period off at the Sunday closest to New Year's), that will push the PS4 to 20.6M units. I think at this point >20M for 2017 as a whole is a given. 21M may even be possible depending on if December is up YoY and by a sufficient percentage. |
So, if the 3.4M is achieved, shipments should be about 77M. That leaves 2M to be shipped in Q4 to achieve the target of 79M by March 2018.
