No, week 1 for Media Create will be next week.  The trackers will align again at the end of this year I think.

 

Your right. Famitsu doing it all wrong, there week 53 this year will include days of mostly 2017 lol. 

No, trackers will align again on 2018 lol

for Famitsu, this year will have again just 52 weeks, and will end the 25th of December 2016.

Year 2017 will have 53 weeks, because it will start from 26th of December 2016. The typical Week 52 will be Week 1 for Famitsu in 2017, and the New Year's Sales and boost will be in Week 2 2017. 

They're doing completely wrong.

@jranation he could be uninformed or just stating the facts of what actually happened.

Speaking of facts. the ps4 is practically equal to ps3 launch aligned now. That went on to sell over 10m and counting. Ps4 will sell 8m minimum possibly 10m too.

Either way it's guaranteed to be a nice success in Japan.

You're gonna be terribly (bad) surprised).

 

At the end of 2016 the system will have been out for less than 3 years but 3 holiday seasons and it will have sold around 4m. As I said the thing is going to sell around 8m easily and will be a big success.

You can't be serious? No way is the ps4 going to sell way more than the ps3. We can all dream, but this will never happen :/

I think you quoted the wrong post.

In that case you will have several bad surprises as ps4 fails to reach your expectations each year.

It's going to be nicely ahead of ps3 launch aligned next year.  I'm not saying it will do 10.3m easily and beat the ps3 but I'm saying it will definitly do 8m and be a success.  

 

What do you think it will get to?

If 8 millions is the bar to call something a success, this bar has gone very low.

Yes it's the same bar that everyone over on sales Japan gaf have created.  How many people were saying it would be lucky to do over 4/5m? 

 

Well it's going to breeze past 4m next year and it will beat lifetime no problem.  That's a success for Japan especially given lowered expectations.  

 

If it says around as long as the ps3 did it might even break 10m. For a home console in Japan over 8m is very good.

What do you think it will get to? 

I think ps4's moderate sales will decrease even more due to competition with a Wii U successor. It may still sell a million or a little more in 2016, but will struggle to get past 5m lifetime. Wii U is heading to end 2016 close to or around 4m ltd. If it's replacement releases this year, it's legs will be cut short and it will end between 4.5 and 5m. That's similar to what GC and N64 sold but in less time.

If Wii U is replaced this year it won't reach 4 million LTD.

So, reading all of you 8 million means success, PS4 will struggle to get 5 million... What's next?

Oh my. This is golden. It sold 1.33M in 2015 and you think it isn't going to sell way more than that next year.
