Mr Puggsly: "Hehe, I said good profit. You said big profit. Frankly, not losing money is what I meant by good. Don't get hung up on semantics"

Sony are extremely disappointed with how the PS4 has performed, expect BIG changes to PlayStation's business plan soon.

But still 50%+ marketshare. :P




Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!
Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

According to VGC. However, considering we haven't had shipments from MS in awhile (though they did say sales last quarter had declined) PS4 could be 2.5:1 for all we know. But yes, I agree Sony should rush out the PS5.

what 2:1 advantage?

Have i missed something? outside the weekly numbers i never knew sony had a 2:1 advantage yet.

It always happens during the holiday season that Xbox is catching up a little (due to MS putting an extra push on marketing campaigns, cheap bundles and due to soccer mom buying habits).

During off-season PS4 outsells it 2.5:1 and then during holidays it's closer to 1.5:1 but in the long run it becomes 2:1.

Sony have 3 options.

1. Jump the gun and release the PS5 next March
2. Merge with Nintendo in the hope Microsoft buys them both thereafter.
3. Release the PS4 Pachincko Pro and take over the world.
