The funny thing about launches is that they rarely say anything about how well a system will perform afterward. Last gen we saw all three consoles with relatively mediocre launches:
The earliest adopters will buy a system in droves regardless of reception because they're dedicated to the brand enough to want it as early as possible. The only limiting factor is supply. I imagine the 360 would have sold well over 1.5M units if it weren't for supply constraints. Hell, it wouldn't have surprised me if the PS3 sold well over a million units even despite its high launch price. I remember the stories about people lining up and camping out to get a PS3, and there not being enough systems to go around. It seems the 360, PS3, and Wii were all short on supply when they came out. |
PS4 was in limited quantity in many places in Europe (and World) for the first months and very hard to find. There started to be available (in limited quantity) in most stores in continental Europe maybe 4/5 months after the release.
