Forums - Sales - Is it possible for PS4 to cross 17 million mark by 2014

I know this has been discussed a lot of times. But I wanted to discuss it again. Sony have stated that they want to sell 17 million PS4 by April 2015. I think there is a small chance that PS4 might beat their expectations again.

This holiday will be huge. Sure there are less games compared to previous years but now there will be more focus on games. Destiny has the potential to be the biggest launch for a new IP. GTA V will be in PS4 with exclusive contents (multiplayer perks or DLC, who knows). Farcry 4 will be a big seller and has PS4 exlusive features. Little big planet 3 and driveclub wont do anything sales wise but will add variety for having games options.

I think there is a very good possibility that PS4 will cross 15 million numbers by 2014. And if everything goes right then it might cross 17 million numbers. It is possible for PS4 to beat expectations again.

PS: I request you guys not to derail the OP.

I think they need more games for that kind of optimism. The way the sales have been lately it's going to take some luck to reach some big numbers. TLOU:R I'm sure will help, but we have no idea how it has helped with sales right now. I think it's going to fall to other games to help it pick up. I'm sure Destiny will help but again, it's on almost every platform. There are certainly some note worthy games, but the likely the biggest sellers out of those will be LBP3.... I think lots of games will sell, and the system will do fine, but it's not going to be massive. I think that will fall to holiday 2015.



Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.

Probably be at 14 or 15 million. 16 million at most. 17 million will be in early 2015



Nope, impossible, rather 12-14millions mark at most

12 million? So it's gonna sell 3 million in 5 months, including holidays, while it managed almost 5 in non holiday months? Yeah you have no idea what you're talking about.



14m, with 15m range at most.



e=mc^2

Gaming on: PS4 Pro, Switch, SNES Mini, Wii U, PC (i5-7400, GTX 1060)
