Yes, you're right, there were enough venues in the past where Sony could have celebrated the 160mil. milestone.

Bye the way, if Sony wouldn't have been forced to cut the legs of the PS4 (because of the shortages of components during Covid-19), I personally think it could have reached 138mil. with an optimal outcome of reaching and even surpassing the 140mil. mark.

For sure. And if their 1st place for sales was so much important to them, they might have tried with the PS4 also. They could've cut it's price once more to 199$ in let's say 2020, and even once more to 149$ in 2022, and have it in production up until now or even next year (which would be about the same as PS2), and with the recent economic situations, and having in mind that there are still many cross gen games, it would be one nice budget choice, and if the sales were decent after 2020, they could also have a shot at 160M. With the price raising on all console the last 2 years, PS4 would sell decently at that 149$ now. Despite how big or small it's chances would be in such scenario, this is the way Sony should've tried to do it, with either PS4 or PS5.
