This reminds me a bit of MS/NS including other services and/or consoles into their PR.

Tell it to me straight, you talking heads! Stop mincing words!

Is the PS head honcho mincing words... or.. are you?

Or am I dancer?

I would like to hear a current number of PSVR units sold. We know PS4 has done, and continues to do well. What is less clear is how well PSVR has done. We know it hasn't sold like gangbusters coming into this holiday season. But, with the heavy discounting going on right now, it seems possible that may be changing.

Likely between 1.5-2M at the moment. It was over 1M some months ago and shipped over 500k on last quarter.

Never understood why it's so important for Sony to win black Friday in USA by 100k over their competitors. If they can easily win Black Friday in Europe with over 400k. Black Friday is getting big in Europe.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

They have talked about being first or having good months a lot of times.

Would you care to give me an example of this showcase ? Outside of financial reports of course cuz it's obvious they would talk about them numbers :P

It's SOP for every publisher to put out an NPD statement. It supposed to provide information about the past month's performance and share the highlights for that time period. In the case of Black Friday, it's all celebratory.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
