Will vgchartz get updated to reflect this number then?

9m+ for Spider-Man is damn impressive, especially since that number only goes to Nov 25.  I think we've just found the PS4's top first party game.  VGC has Uncharted 4 at 10.26m.  I sure Spidey will beat that soon if it hasn't already.  Or does that number exclude digital?

Vgchartz tracks physical

Here goes my completely wrong stupid 97m prediction.

Depends on when you made it. If you said 97 million at the start of the gen, I think that's a great prediction. If you made it within, say, the last 18 months, consult a physician. Get a complete checkup and tell your doctor what you said on VGC.

Ok, good to know.  I still see Spider-Man passing Uncharted 4, but it might take a while.



curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
My Bet With curl-6

Honestly, if i were Sony, i'd release PS5 as soon as possible.
PS4 is still a monster in sales and that appeal could - possibly - be transferred to PS5 and start the lifecycle with a bang.
Easier said than done, though.

Amazing Spiderman sales!

Impressive sales, really. I believe PS4 life time sales will be around 110~115M. The announcement of PS5 is definitety coming in 2019. Sales will drop.

Too pessimist.

Expecting and actually doing and two different things(See Nintendo/Switch goal). I still think PS5 announcement will hinder PS4 sales, but overall its inevitable to pass Wii numbers at this point. 

Sony is not Nintendo, that's your first mistake.  The PS1 was discontinued in 2006, well after the PS2.  The PS2 was discontinued in 2013, well after the PS3.  The PS3 was discontinued 2017, well after the PS4 and the PS4 will be on sales well after the PS5 is on the market, enough to pass the 100M/Wii sales.  We have the numbers and average yearly sale post a new console and I don't see the PS4 being any different from 20 years worth of history.

Early adopters will push PS5 sales, those who can afford a cheaper PS4 will push the console past those 100+/Wii/PS1 milestones.

I have not made a mistake though. It is true, expecting and doing are two completely things and just because you expect something,doesn't guarantee it will happen.  People keep trying to spin what I'm saying as if I have said PS4 will never hit 100m, when I've stated multiple times it will xD

Bold prediction.... unless you mean sales of the PS4 up until the release f the PS5. And even then its still a bold prediction. 

And as for the PS5 announcement.... I strongly doubt people waiting to buy a sub $200 PS4 are going to hold off their purchase so they can start waiting 6 yrs for a $400/$500 PS5 to drop in price to sub $200.
