And if you look, the sales were down YoY for the holidays for PS4. Not by much, but still down. The 2.6 million increase YoY was due to sales throughout the year. So the other systems did steal some sales of the PS4 during the holiday. How else do you explain a system having sold YoY 2.6 million more consoles, yet during the business shopping season selling less YoY.

So looks like Sony are adopting more of a slow and steady wins the race kid of strategy throughout the year, rather than putting all their console release eggs in the November/December basket.
