Damn PS5 massive boost.

Suprisingly good yoy hold for Switch compared to the last couple of months. Also a decent week for Xbox all things considered

Impressive PS5 sales, a 5.3:1 ratio to the Xbox.

Week 47 saw a 50% increase in sales compared to the second biggest week, which was the week prior with 32k.

So, in Spain, two weeks in November '23 are already drawing the biggest PS5 hardware sales weeks ever since its launch.

I am really excited for the global hardware sales estimates for the month of November.

I can imagine PS5's sales very likely to easily sit above 2 million units sold globally.

My guess is something between ~2.8 to 3.2m worldwide.

Sell through of 2 million globally for PS5 in November would be well below expectations, even 3.2 million would be slightly disappointing. Last years November was 2.4 million and it only shipped 7.1 million for Q3. With Sony aiming for 10 million or more units shipped for Q3 then 3.5 million for November would be needed.

You're right.

My numbers were at the lowest end of expectation. I forgot to add that.

I prefer keeping expectations lower, tbh.

In my highest guess, so if everything for the PS5 falls into place perfectly (no supply issues, Slim announcement in October triggering enough attention and buzz, etc.), I suspect global PS5 sales in November to be around ~4.6m to 5.2m.

But again - just me.

I've seen other people's suggestions of PS5 sales around 6.2 million units in November. Even that seems possible to me.

PS5 hitting 25 million units shipped in FY 2023 is not gonna happen at the prices they're asking. It'll need a permanent $100 pricecut to achieve that.

25 million for CY 2023 is more doable, but still very difficult.
