At the end of 2018, PS4 will be nov and dec 2013 plus 5 years. If estimates are correct (and they seem low) It will sell 96 million consoles. (leaving PS3 and XBOX 360 totals far behind) 

PS1 sold 82,3 in the same period. 

PS2 sold 87,5 in the same period.

Wii sold 95,85 in the same period. (And 99,9 the following year, it just dropped sales like a piano)

So , if everything is as it looks, PS4 will be the fastest selling console for a 5 year period. (plus nov and dec of the year before). 

Edit; At the end of 2018, PS4 will be nov and dec 2013 plus 5 years. If estimates are correct (and they seem low) It will sell 95 million consoles (79+16). (leaving PS3 and XBOX 360 totals far behind). 

So it will be neck to neck with Wii 5th year after lauch holidays and if they up their forecast, then will be the fastest selling console for the period. Nice race at year´s end.

Wow. I never realized how badly Wii fell off at the end. Does that make it a fad? What was the final years like for software sales on Wii? I bet my sig that PS4 will beat out Wii SW considerably, even if a PS5 is out by 2019. I just can't see PS4 sales dropping before 2019-2020/whenever the next gen PS5 gets into full swing.
