Did PS3 have supply constraints? Can't remember back that far but I don't think it did for it's Japanese launch. Never knew the actual figures, so low.


Not really so far I remember.

Actually, they did have some supply issues at launch

http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/tech/gaming/2006-11-17-ps3-debut_x.htm

Sony was also supposed to launch PS3 5-6 months earlier then it did as it was initially suppose to launch in spring 2006 but due to a shortage in the blue diode laser production (Blu-ray) it was pushed back to Nov and still had supply issues.

Oh yeah the delay I remember but shortages I can't,... oh well =p.

Added table to the OP with all the predictions so far

You've adjust mine wrong!!!! I said 750k for the 'week':

500k for two days, 750k for the week and 1 million for the month.

Oh lol. Well, "for the week" is confusing. I use it for first sales week but some do not, apparently.

Don't forget to adjust my numbers!!!!!! It's very unlikely to sell 750k in just two days and although I'm being optomistic, I feel as though my prediction IS possible.



 

The PS5 Exists.

Adjustments will come with the next update (tonight). Going to close predictions soon, since we might get hints/numbers soon

Yeah, I figured that. That's why I wanted it adjustng before they came in lol. I don't want to be accused of cheating :)

Does the 350k shipment is based about the store who had 3.5 more ps4 then ps3 at launch ?



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

715k that would give about a 3 mil ww aliglaunch



End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

Normchacho on 21 February 2014

Any news on numbers yet or is it still too early for that?



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
