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 

Exactly, maybe more realistically 32 million.

25 million is crazy low, the ps5 sold 19 million with no supply and so many people desperate to have one.

First of all because gaming is bigger now than in 2013, second, because the ps5 is backwards compatible when the ps4 wasn't. Third because its the first sony console with almost no loadings, in fact I've never seen a loading in Horizon forbidden west for example. Even when you die, its already ready to go.

Fifth, they actually have an innovative controller with the adaptive triggers, the ps4 controller felt too much like a ps3 controller.

1. The PS/Xbox console market has not substantially grown since 2013.

2. There is no proof that BC increases sales.

3. That is not a big systemselling feature.

Didn't Ratchet and Clank showcase that feature prominently and yet the game vanished from the charts quickly.

You forgot fourth.

5. The controller being innovative is just your opinion. It's new features aren't reason to upgrade on their own.

Games sell hardware.

Do you understand how fomo works?

The lack of stock makes it seem like demand is infinitely higher than it is and/or would have otherwise been.
