Looks like total HW exceeded 100k this week, thanks to AC and 3DS. We don't see that happen very often these days, do we...

According to NPD 3DS is undertracked in The US for both May and June, so who know...

Not sure what to think of these AC spin offs. The 3DS game looks a lot better than the crappy looking board game coming out on Wii U but that isn't saying too much. Might as well make a mobile version instead of ever making a proper Wii U version.

Good luck Edmarcio!:P I will bow to you if you will be right,but I don't feel that I will,it's a fairly bold a prediction,in my opinion,because for you this might be a given!I just say that because ps4 will be at 1.7m++++ by the end of August!Then it needs 900k in september-october-november-december for 2.6m,225k by average on each month(in Japan,holidays effect is only in december),think of that,you might reconsider things!:P Okay,lets say that MGS TPP will be a big hit and push 200k(50k per week) ps4 units in september(which is way unprobable and crazy),so ps4 at 1.9m,what will push another 700k,between october-november-december,okay december is a holiday month,ergo lets  expect the irrational 300k (75k per week) ps4 sold  then,so 400k in october-november for 2.6m  by the end of the year? Can you see that estimating 2.6m-2.8m is utterly insane?

Don't fall to the trap of using the current wyoy up precentage,for the upcoming months,that's extremely misguided(if it's what you're doing),things can change anytime!

 I'm expecting it to be at 2.2m-2.3m,and that's optimistic(disclaimer:if sony do a price cut,it's not my fault if I will be off or what I call  optimistic will be proved a hyperbole!)What will do the wonders that you imply?


So you're estimating 500k PS4s sold from september to december? That's not optimistic.

If the PS4 sells 20k average per week from the beggining of september to the end of November (it's currently selling 17k a week in the slowest period of the year, and it has Metal Gear Solid) it'll have sold 260k before september starts, and if it then sells the same as it did last holiday, it'll have sold 430k in sep-dec, and that's the minimum, so claiming 2.2 million is optimistic is already hyperbole, regardless of whether Sony cuts the price or not.

July is not the slowest period of the year lol It's holiday season now. You can check here how hardware usually performs:

The slowest months in Japan are May, June, September and October (non-holiday season).

Also, note that PS4 is being bundled with Bloodborne for free at the monent in Japan (summer campaign).

It was for PS4 last year, but it's not a slow month overall.
