its good sony is giving out numbers from time to time. I recall in these forums in december, some users claimed the ps4 was overtracked by alot because of how well it was outselling the competition. they even claimed that Sony said they could only produce 5 million before the end of the fiscal year or so. the official numbers from sony helped to silence the doubters lol. keep em coming Sony.

Haha yeah, some claimed "just wait until holidays are over! ps4 will bomb like wiiu!"

PS2:

1 month (one territory) - March 31st, 2000 - 1.41 million
7 months (one territory) - September 30th, 2000 - 3.52 million
13 months - March 31st, 2001 - 10.61 million

PS3:

4 months - March 31st, 2007 - 3.5 million
7 months - June 30th, 2007 - 4.2 million
10 months - September 30th, 2007 - 5.5 million
13 months - December 31st, 2007 - 10.4 million

So PS3 was selling roughly as fast as PS2?

Lame. Why not wait and announce a nice round number after the Japan launch?

Showing constant high demand just a few days before the launch in Japan is increasing the hype and the sales there.

Does it genuinely say sold through as all I've seen is the word sold. As we all know that means very little

But also given how difficult it is to find PS4s, I can believe that there are only 1-200k on shelves
