Maybe not 40 million but I think that's a lot more realistic than most of these low balls.  This thing had crazy hype and has been immediately selling out for years now.  

It would have destroyed PS4 for sure and was outpacing until supply fell behind ps4 numbers 

At this point in the PS4's life (lets use March 2015's shipment numbers) it was at 22.3M units. PS5 outpacing PS4 would have been a few percentage points higher, not almost twice as much. That would mean that the PS5 would have to ship like 30M consoles per year. The PS4 shipped 20M at the very height of it's popularity. The idea that PS5 would be anywhere close to 40M at this point is just ridiculous. Even 30M is pushing it.
