I don't know about here.

But most of the people I know in Latin america, still believes that the switch is destroying the Ps4 in terms of sales.

Where?

They have never been front loaded but PS2 did peak in its 2nd year. And like i said, regardless of manufacturer, its very rare for a console to have a stagnant year followed by a year of growth.

Ps4 is a beast . Great to see it ruling the world .

Fuck, the Switch is going balls to the wall in Japan.

It should also be noted that PS2 shipped an additional 35M units, 3 years after the PS3 had released! (PS2 was at 115M units shipped at the end of 2006 and in the same time PS4 will most probably be around 105M+ units and could stand to add another 15/20M or even 30M units if they play their cards right) 

So the sooner PS4 reaches $249/199/149 price range, the sooner the system becomes more accessible for developing and growing regions such as China ... (there's another gold mine Sony could access) 

This but I don't think China will ever love consoles and I like it that way actually.

I'd prefer it if China does get into console gaming since the market gets bigger and there's more diversity to be had in games too ... 

Well, yes it's surprising not only to see a flat followed by a big growth (although last gen this happened because Sony done slim and big pricecuts, and MS done the kinect and both had very late peak after even having declines) but also that it is still growing on the 4th year, while the price wasn't that low and could even allow for another growth in the 5th.

Probably nowhere. At least in Brazil it have been playstation all the way until last gen where X360 live and easier to pirate made MS stronger than Sony, but PS passed it again this gen. And only a crazy person would think the LT of a very successful console on the 4th year like PS4 would be so much lower than a 1st year console.

And also people local impression on sales isn't even relevant.

Why not? If it makes console go cheaper faster and allow more profits on SW making they come faster (unless they help increase MP and the like) is good.

Where did he say that one or the other was NOT successful?
