I'm with Torpoleon on this one.... I used to think it would just barely outsell the PS4... like reaching 120m or so.
That was early last year. However after their resent quarter, and financial results... I too think it can do better than I was orginally expecting.
My current thinking is if the gen is long enough, it should reach 130m+.
Like if this year, because of GTA, it does like ~24m sales total (for the year),... that would be almost 100m PS5 out there, by early 2026.
Give it another 3-4 years, to sell like 30m+ consoles before the next Playstation 6... sure why not.
I hope Sony have upped production, and give a slight price cut on units... and do better than this years (20.2m).
They should aim higher, and make good use of GTA.
Full push, on selling units, even if it comes lower overall revenue/profits this year, build that base of consumers.
I'm thinking 2025, could be a 20m+ year.... with GTA and a price cut..... maybe like 24m.
Maybe I'm too optimistic? Time will tell.
