Has PS4 ever had a week lower than this?

No.  This is the single lowest week for the PS4 ever.

No, it's not. During its launch year 2014 (February launch in Japan), the PS4 recorded a sub-7k week a total of 12 times. At times it was just above the 5k mark.



Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV (360+PS3) would outsell SSBB. I was wrong.

From here on, I'm curious. The pessimist in me thinks it will sell less in the combined following weeks. We'll see.

Let @nero know.  His chart shows this week as the lowest.

nero's chart is for 2019 only. The weeks discussed by Rol are in 2014.

Yes, Im comparing the chart for this year only 2018-2019. Don't have the data from previous years.

I don't know if 17.8k for Shenmue 3 is in line with their expectations, but I hope it is.

Nintendo Japan had to apologize for ring fit stock... yeah reaching a million for the year is now basically impossible



curl-6 on 29 November 2019

Regarding PS4, I wonder if it's that Japan aren't interested in it at that price point any more, or if they're just no longer interested in as a system any more.



Bet with Liquidlaser: I say PS5 and Xbox Series will sell more than 56 million combined by the end of 2023.
