Vita is dead. 

Its outselling the Wii U, but Nintendo still gives info on it. Why Sony can't? 

They can,  they just don't give a shit.  we already get weekly numbers for it in the only country it sells respectably.

Yeah. But hopefully we get a proper LT sales WW before or after it dies in Japan as well. 



Pocky Lover Boy!

Probably not.  it'll likely die in 2017/18 but it's looking at something around 15m lifetime.  give or take.  Sony should give numbers as they'll likely never make a successor so why the hell not but I seriously doubt it.  they genuinely just don't give a shit at this point imo.

Those are very impressive numbers.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

So Sony will be well past 55 million PS4s shipped before Nintendo sells even 1 Switch unit.

4th Quarter will probably be 8.5m or so (was last year?), ontop of the already shipped 47.4m.

Good sales. How close to 60 million shipped can it get after the holiday season including Japan in January?

PS4 shipments tracking behind PS2 for the first time right before PS4pro. If Sony keep supporting PS4 as long as they did with their previous homeconsole (might need a ps4ProPlus or PsVR2), PS4 and this gen as a whole might set some new records.

I absolutely believe there will be a PS4 Pro + and PSVR Pro before we see PS5. The leap in tech to make PS4 completely obsolete won't happen for many more years. We need SSD's to drop in cost, and HBM Memory to reach larger pool sizes before that happens. PS5 to be even close to the same leap as previous generations has to have 40TF of power and 128GB of RAM. Even at that, with deminishing returns, it still won't have the wow people expect. If PS5 comes in 2018 like a lot of people are saying, there will be a lot of disappointed people that, and the worst selling PS home console of all time.



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.

Yup. If the PS5 comes out in 2018, it would essentially be a PS4 Pro+ specs wise. I think Sony should definitely wait to jump into next gen.

So PS4 under tracked? Not surprising.
