Ps4 is doomed. With weekly sales dropping to 20% of launch and LTD under 2.5M is it to soon for Sony to drop support and go full third party?


I'm assuming this is a troll thread. If it's not, that's because the PS4 is sold out literally everywhere. If you can give me an online retailer that has ps4's in stock for more than an hour, I'd be astounded. In two weeks, they sold their entire stock, and it's going to take a while for them to be able to do another wave of shipments. Hopefully they can get another 500k by the end of the year to reach their goal. The ps4's sales at this point are based solely on supply because demand outwieghs it to such a severe level. 

today it stayed for 4h at wallmart.


I don't see how it selling out in 4 hours is means it's a flop either way. the ps4 sales are at an insanley high rate right now. I also hope you are talking about walmart online.

It's wallmart online, and you wanted to see it being available for more than 1h so I showed you... and perhaps PS4 have yield issues so there isn't enough supply.

Their sales wouldn't be higher than xbox if they had yield issues. Xbox and ps4 are getting out about the same amount every week, and the ps4 tends to sell out faster. That means it has a higher demand no matter how you cut it.

This week I know for sure M$ sent out more stock to US retailers. We got a shipment of 6 PS4s and like two shipments of Ones...have over 30 in my store. Though the PS4s go as soon as we get em. We didn't even get the systems checked into our system b4 they were sold.

Also, hello to everyone I have been reading your threads for years, just never made an account. 

Edit: I work at one of the busiest Gamestops in Fl, only beat out by 3 or 4 stores in the state of Florida. One of those is busier than the Gamestop in Manhatan. So I would think demand in my store for something or stock we recieve is a good indicator of our region.
