I remember in 2021 when some people were predicting the PS5 wouldn't cross 7m LT, some even saying it might not even reach Wii U sales...

Tbf the PS5 console sales in 2021 were extremely dire, and it's still not looking good tbh. With the recent price hike, the highly anticipated Switch 2 coming up this year, and without the benefit of a pent-up demand sales bump I foresee the PS5 to drop significantly this CY.

Sony had their best year ever. PS5 sold 22.55M units (I count November - Oct, because november is the year mark for PS5). This beat the second best Playstation console, which was ~22M by the PS1 (Nov - Oct for its 4th year).

PS5 had a rough 1st and 2nd year compared to PS4, but PS1 and PS2 had it way worse.
I think PS5 will sell either just below 22M or once more at the 22M mark. Ill go with 20M.



Lifetime Sales Predictions 

Switch: 160 million (was 120 million, then 140 million, then 150 million)

PS5: 130 million (was 124 million)

Xbox Series X/S: 54 million (was 60 million, then 57 million)
