PS4 will be the new PS2.


Doubt it. PS2 was fairly cheap and advanced for the time, arrived first and had a more staggered worldwide release plus the most 3rd party support. PS4 only has the most powerful advantage

Wasn't the Wii U the biggest launch ever? I think the PS4 will beat the Wii U's launch but not outsell Wii U LTD until 2014

Not even close to the biggest launch ever.

I check using the charts tool and while it did worse than Wii for Nov and December of its launch year, it was nearly double the launch of PS3 and 360 separately. While the PS4 surpassing the current total of 3.46 million is certainly possible in PS4's launch, selling 5 million in a month and a half is a little much especially with competition from the Xbox One. My expectation for the PS4 is around 3.5 million for 4 weeks and a little over 4 million by January 1, 2014


I think that when searching for the biggest launch in history, you shouldn't be looking at PS3 or X360, but at the good ol' PS2. I have no data, but that would be the first console I'd check :P

 

Ok Tbone, no prob :)



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

Well never know since Sony never releases sales figures just shipped

People get so angry about that article lol. Back then it made sense, the press loved vita back then, and the device in theory made sense. When you live in the bubble of core gamers on game forums and game journalists, the vita succeeding was a no-brainer. Obviously that wasn't the case (vita succeeding), just goes to show how little influence the internet minority really have.

First month? Now I'm 100% sure... Wii U first month was ~2 million.

It won't sell more than the Wii U in a month, not a chance.

"PS4 pre orders Will Outsell WiiU 1st Month Sales"

not "PS4 will outsell Wii U in a month."

Can anyone tell me what numbers Wii U did the first month? If it's less than a million Colin's already right. 

Damn you win, I read it wrong xD. In that case if vg chartz is correct I think it already did. The pre-orders of the PS 4 are of about a million.

No. It won't. But it won't take long to catch up.

PS4 is cheaper than PS2 if you consider the inflation adjustment:

PS2 wasn't a huge seller like Wii, it just had longer legs. According to vgsales wiki, it sold 1.41m units in launch for first month but it was only available in Japan. The problem with staggered releases
