it might reach PS3..... but not sure it will.

Very hard, in Japan PS4 sold after first 2.5 years only around 3m, even with noticeably better sales hardly will reach PS3 LT numbers of 10.5m. IMO PS4 want sell around 7m in Japan and that definitely is bad because WW LT PS4 will most likely pass 100m.

So the ps4 just passed the Wii U at around 3.2m units sold. What consoles are next in line?

1) Vita

2) PS3

3) Wii

And then later on we will see if the NX can beat the PS4.

Even passing Vita will be a task (because Vita have steady sales), not to mention PS3 and Wii.

Next is PS3, and it will trounce PS3. With the Pro and VR it will easily surpass 10 million. If we end up seeing a PS4 Phone and Tablet next year, then they will sell over 30 million units between all members of the PS4 family of products.

Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

For those doubting the ps4 sales in Japan. If I'm reading the graph correctly it has until mid way through 2016 to hit 4.5m. Considering what's coming between now and then that's very realistic.

As I keep telling people, the ps4 is in rude health. And a bright future.
