they expect 16M next year??? I did not expected that at all. Price cut/revison coming or what? 16M is a lot more than i expected....

I've been saying 16m as my prediction for 2019 for a year or longer.
It doesnt seem unreasonable to me, and I bet they still manage 13m+ in 2020.

If it does another 10-15m after the PS5 launches (would have to be from low priced units) it could end up 135m-140m.

PS4 is gonna be the next best selling home console, behinde the PS2 by the end of its life.

I said a few days ago that i was expeting around 14'5M sold to consumers in 2019 due to performance. So when i said that i meant that i expected around 14M shipped for the year. If Sony is expecting 16M units to ship that could mean the console can sell 16-17M to consumers during this next 12 months. That's.......impressive. So if Sony is not bluffing, the only way i think they can do it, is if PS4 has a revision or a price cut. And if indeed PS4 is already 113M shipped by March 2020, PS4 should be near 120M by the time PS5 launches in November 2020.

PS4 is almost a guarantee now that is going to end selling 125-130M lifetime, and who knows, if PS4 gets to live alongside PS5 during a year or two more, maybe it can reach those numbers you said.

PS4 has being an astonishing success...., commercially and financially. It's going to be the fastest home console to reach 100M units sold too.
