Below expectations? 800k in the last two quarters after the PS4 launch.

Would be nice for ps3 to outsell the ps1



 

mM

Some late night research, so someone correct me if I'm wrong

PS3 @ 80M on Nov 2nd, 2013 and we know CY 2014 shipments = 2.3M

Q3 PS3 shipments = 3.3M, we can assume it was all shipped prior to Nov 2nd or we can assume it was all shipped after Nov so that we get a range of

82.3 < PS3 < 85.6M as of Sep 30th 2014

Using table in OP for FY12 and the range for the PS3 above, we get

161.4 < PS2 < 164.7, if we assume PS2 was at 157.9 as of March 2012

158.6< PS2 < 161.9, if we assume PS2 was at 155.1 as of March 2012

I'd venture most shipments for that Q3 were after Nov 2nd and  I'd guess PS3 >85M and PS2 < 162M or PS2 <159.2M as of Sep 30th 2014.

OP is your table correct for the PS2 for March 2012? Is it 157.9 or 155.1?

Q1 was ok (drop from 1.1M to 800K, a 27% drop), Q2 was below expectations (from 2M to 800K, a 60% drop). Q3 was 3.3M last year, which could translate to 1.3 to 2.4M (if drops are within the drop percentages from Q1 and Q2). I'm hoping for a 2.5-3M shipped Q3 2014 for the PS3, but I am not sure that will happen.

Needs a $149 price drop by next Fall, but ideally earlier (April, for the new FY). If sony comes with the always rumored PSThree duper super slim refresh, along with a price drop, then I say chances would be great that the PS3 would outsell the PS1.

My table for PS2 current number is not correct because of sony different method of reporting sales since FY'06.

The real ps2 number is 155.1M as of 2012, March, 31st. (I know my table is kinda misleading that way, that's why I made an edit few lines under it to show last PS2 real number known (155.1M))

Your guess (PS3>85M, PS2 < 159.2M) is pretty much similar as mine then (PS3: ~85.2M, PS2: ~159.0M) ;)



Prediction: End of 2015 Hardware sales (as of January 20, 2015)

Wii U: 12.1M | XBO: 19.8M | PS4: 36.0M | 3DS: 58.5M | PSV: 11.7M
