they make more money right now than they did probably last gen, with PS+ etc. And this gen wont be as long as last, even with the Pro

Why i left PC gaming

(2015) Question for PS4 owners: if the situation would be reverse? would you still play on PS4?

So even if the PS4 does 100m+ its still bad? a "fail" ?

Failing with only 100m units sold :p

This should be the same for 3DS at 70 million lifetime, but people call it a flop.

3DS isnt a flop.

Anything that sells that many units is a success.

Esp considering how hard the handheld market is to compete in, with smart phones now a days.

PS4 needs to do at least 4x PS1. So 400mil imo.

Why stop there

It needs to sell a console for every game released on it so let's up it to 1 billion

only the X1 can sell 1 billion

OP is saying +100M from now, not +100M.

Still got a few years to go.

Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
