Tease.

We're good this quarter - remember they announced it early.

For those curious Sony projects to ship 15m PS3s, 6m PSPs, and 4m PS2s - but this could very well be the last growth year for PS3 on a global basis - and thats assuming they ship 15m - they had projected that in the year to March 2011 when they only shipped 14.3m

About 568k on the shelves as of April 2nd.

Compared to

656k for the 360
270k for the Wii

PSP and PS2 are trickier due to the switch from production to retail shipments.  For the PS2 though, VGC has 2010 sales 2.31 million lower than shipments.  950k lower for 2009.  So far for 2011 it is 427k lower than shipments.

Some interesting comments and facts:

NPS Forecast for next 12 months:


Sales are expected to increase year-on-year primarily due to higher sales in the game business, PCs and network services. In contrast, operating income is expected to significantly decrease, primarily due to lower unit sales of PSP® (PlayStation Portable) and PS2 hardware and software, as well as expenses associated with the unauthorized access to Sony’s PlayStation®Network, Qriocity™ and Sony Online Entertainment network services.

 

Networked Products & Services Revenue breakdown for the year:


Game: $1.9bn  down 9%
PC and Other Networked Businesses: $1.7bn  down 21.9%
Total: $3.6bn down 15.5%

Doesn't seem like much mention of the NPG? But I reckon that won't help profits as they will probably have to sell that at a loss, at least initially, which would probably negatively affect them for this FY, especially if it doesn't come out until March

making very good operating income gains, the business is quite healthy underneath.

ps3 seemingly will peak this year then at only 15m? I thought its peak might have been larger.

ngp looks to be a 2012 release i'm afraid, unless projections haven't been made as sony wants to assess the success of the 3ds first.
