PS4 has a bigger user base than XOne in NA, and it's already back with the weekly figures. Once the fire sale for XOne are finished, PS4 will outsell it again week after week for all 2015 until Nov 2015. Then MS will give away again XOne and games for free in Nov  and they will have another boost.

They probably will. But a $299 PS4 and Uncharted 4 will likely stop the boost from putting Xb one ahead of PS4 next holidays. Especially if they release an Uncharted trilogy in June or July, which will be another draw card for 360 owners who are not huge Halo or Gears fans (and yes about 65% of 360 owners in the USA aren't Halo or Gears fans) in the lead up to Uncharted 4.

More than 65% since there is surely some overlap between Halo and Gears fans

If there was no overlap at all the Gears/Halo aggregate would be 42% of 360 owners in the USA. 35% might be a bit on the high side, but there are probably a decent number of Halo fans who never got into Gears, and plenty of Gears fans who never got into Halo.

The PS4 leads NA by 1 Mil right? I think that's managable unless its become a 360 vs PS4 event which is probably doubtful at this point in time.

US by 1.1m.

NA is a bit more.

PS4 is just unbelievably high. Xbox One doing great too, outselling the Xbox 360 so far. WiiU not bad (for the console) but in general horrible. I'm sorry to say.

PS4 will definitely get +20 million, Xbox One should get + 10 million easily and WiiU might be near 8,5 million. All by the end of the year of course.


I agree. PS4 is phenomenal, but XB1 is very impressive too.



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

Oh yeah, my bad. I got use to saying NA when I meant the US only ^^;;

Ps4 will reach 17 Million buy PS Experience on 6th of December.
If 734,388 ps4's have been sold pre Black Friday week, I predict 1.5 Million on Black Friday week, maybe even more I would be surprised.

Then from 15.1 Million it will go to 16.6 Million on Black Friday, then if the sales are similar to this week for the week after Black Friday? Then the ps4 will be at 17.2 or 17.3 Million.
PREDICTION BY ME. :)

Good numbers. Almost too good for the PS4.

This is the first time ever that I've seen PS4 numbers and thought 'overtracked'. Seems a rather large number to me.



 

The PS5 Exists.

Its sales are high because of the GTA V and Far Cry 4 bundles in Europe and the launch of Dragon Age: Inquisition.

I know why it's likely to be high ... but THAT high? I'm going to wait or a while.

Don't you know how high sales can be in November? GTA V, Far Cry 4 and Dragon Age: Inquisition obviously can have a huge effect because even though the bundles were exclusive to Europe, the games still had a massive effect on sales in the rest of the world.

If PS4 can sell 500k in a week in September with one major game, it can surely sell 740k in a week in November with 3 major games.
