50k in Japan .... wait a minute ... I have read some article minutes ago state that PS4 have supply constraint in Japan. Confused @@


And how do the two information collide dear sir?



Around the Network

Thats a huge drop in sales in JP, it must be supply constrained seeing as last weeks numbers were for only 2 days in JP.

I fully expect 6.5-6.8m units by the end of March (it's a 5 week month remember). It looks like the PS4 will have approx. 9.5-10m units WW by the time Destiny appears on the scene, then we will see a huge surge in sales, especially as predicted the PS4 is by far the best version out there, which should lead up to a 15-18m units WW by the end of 2014.....



Prediction (June 12th 2017)

Permanent pricedrop for both PS4 Slim and PS4 Pro in October.

PS4 Slim $249 (October 2017)

PS4 Pro $349 (October 2017)

Not just that but it seems Sony has the rights to market it as a if Destiny was a Sony exclusives, the adverts have already started here in the UK, with the exclusive content and exclusive first look beta. Destiny is going to be a massive push for PS4 this holiday.

I dont think they were very clear on that either way unfortunatley. i do still think they can get 7M by end of fiscal year tho.

Oh yeah, I just read it again and you're right ^^ Yes, 7M is still possible, the bundle inFamous will help it !! I don't understand why the US don't have a simple bundle PS4/inFamous at 439$ like in Europe instead of a Gamestop bundle PS4/inFamous at 570$ !!

I misread ^^ I thought " just over a week ago " was for " PS4 surpassed 6 M "

Actually, it was for " launch in Japan " ^^



If those 2nd week numbers are correct I call bullshit on the supply issues. All to keep the product 'wanted' but artificial shortages.

That's awesome, in just 4 months they've manage to get 6m.

This is really IMPRESSIVE.
