110 million for sure. If it breaks 120 million, then that is just fantastic.

110m is very likely. Perhaps 115m.

In case PS5 hit the market in 2020 or before, I find hard to believe that it can hit 120m. Unless PS5 has a hard time and they make PS4 very cheap and people keep buying PS4s while PS5 gets hot. However, if PS5 gets hot and considering how PS4 fans are happy with Sony these days (I am), the jump to PS5 will be huge. In that case, I'd say that PS4 can go from 100m by the end of 2019 to 110m by 2021.

So, I'll vote 111-120, but I believe it's unlikely to hit 120 if PS5 is a success. Perhaps, it can hit more than 120m after many years, in 2023, but I wouldn't dare predicting 2023 numbers today.



God bless You.

My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+

When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019

Remember you all that "lifetime" includes sales after PS5 launch, so, whatever it will be able to reach when PS5 will come, you'll have to add some millions more.

130M



If Sony rides out the current models till the end. I think PS4 will land around 130 Million.

If we see PS4 Super Slim and Pro Slim next year, I think it can reach 145 million.

I think PS4 had a lot more potential, but now I think Sony should move onto realizing that potential with PS5.



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.

The way things are going, we're looking at 120-130M. And I think that may be a bit safe.



I'd say 120 million.



Those who voted less than 90m. I'm sorry for you. Who are you? Present yourselves.

90-100m. Out of luck too. It's about 96m, and a 100m is almost sure for this year, perhaps before winter.

Who wants to change their bet?



God bless You.

Well, 100m of sold units is quite confirmed.

Do anyone would like to change prediction?

When can we predict 110m?

I voted 111-120m in the poll. But I'd vote 121-130m now, which may still be underestimating. Less than 120m seems unlikely now. 111.8m shipped by March 31st 2020 is forecast, doing less than 8.2m after that is very unlikely.

Even the PS3 managed to ship over 7m after the PS4 launched. To reach 120m the PS4 just needs to ship 8.2m in a time period including 8 months before the ps5 comes out. Basically PS4 would have to do substantially worse vs PS5 than PS3 did vs PS4.

125m+.
