The ps4s peak year was 20% lower then the 25 million the ps5 is aiming for and the ps5 is already behind the ps4s peak year so it has a lot to make up to reach that figure. Where I'm from the ps5 has an €80 price cut and has never been easier to find. I'm not saying it's impossible or anything but that is a very difficult figure to reach for almost any console.

I don't think the PS5 being behind the PS4 by 200K in this quarter is a lot to make up for. I would be more concerned if the PS5 matched the PS4 in price but still lagged behind, couldn't close the gap, and couldn't overtake it.

Unless you think a PS5 price cut + revision will do nothing to drive unit sales, I don't think its accurate to judge whether or not Sony can hit their 25M+ projection, on a launch aligned comparison with the PS4 and PS5.
