Some hard data found in GAF.

PS4 LTD - 6250
Xbox One LTD - 4100

Additional note - At the chain in question, PS4 pre-orders are no longer guaranteed for launch, Xbox One pre-orders still are which may have effected the figures. A total of 4500 PS4's have been pre-ordered in this region at this one retailer (around 20 stores in the region) that are guaranteed for launch day.

LOL.. they will eat into each others potential costumers ...

That won't matter this year as both will most likely sell out.

No freaking way. These analysts are grossly overestimated production capacities of Sony and MS.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,

So they're basically saying that the demand is there for 3.1 million consoles in the UK. Guess we'll see how the supply works out.

Yeah...those numbers aren't remotely realistic. In the PS4's case it would need to double the best launch in the UK and then keep those sales up for the rest of the year.

I don't believe in these number but I believe PS4 will have the best launch in the videogame history.
