Seems ps4 beat ps3 for lifetime sales in the us

It seems exactly like that. Looks like they produced enough to be number one in sales and that's it, which is so disappointing..... Last year it seems they did the same in December, shipping just enough to be the best selling console of the year. I wonder if this year are going to do the same. If Switch sells 2'0M they sell 1'5M, if Switch 1'7M they 1'2M, if Swich 1'5M they 1'0M, .....

We'll need to wait and see, but i still expect Switch selling more than 670k against PS4 in December....

Hah wow. I was way off. Benji was right on the mark.

XBO with a ludicrously good November being able to stay basically flat from the 1X release month while having less aggressive Black Friday sales. Switch had a phenomenal November and PS4 was indeed extremely limited by supply and had a lower supply than last year.

Crazy how close all 3 systems are.

What are the top consoles? Ps3 was like 5th best right?

and in half the time too of the life of the PS3.

Congrats ps4!!!! The 5 year old console does it again. Serious stock issues too so if they sort that out next year for their $199 deal they can do similar if not bigger.

What great news to wake up to. Another November in the bag.

And it beat the ps3 LTD already. It's going to end up way ahead when all is said and done. What a great milestone to hit so early.

Congrats to the PS4! But I also give props to Xone. It was a pretty surprising numbers and a really close race. Was not expecting it to be that close.

For Xbox One I'm thinking the S model is likely down YoY, like you said less aggressive deals, while the X model is likely up YoY due to more stock and deals unlike last year.

The PS4 doesn't have stock issues per say. This has obviously been a strategic move by sony. They obviously don't care much for selling more consoles if it means they bleed out revenue. They have pretty much done the exact same thing 3 years in a row now. Like they are just doing enough.

They are steadily going to 100M and making as much money from the platform as possible. I doubt next year sales will be this good when news of the PS5 is in full swing.

There is a slight chance that the Switch will end up at 6 million in the US for the year if what I am reading is correct
