That is a much bigger drop than I was expecting for the PS5 for the quarter and means it falls further behind the PS4. One quarter doesn't mean a ton as we shall see how it does during the holidays. But at this point I'm thinking it will sell around 110M lifetime.

I’m thinking under PS4 for now, but close enough and in the same ballpark, like 110M.



The system is now 1.8m units behind the PS4 (shipped aligned), not terrible but not a piece of cake to catch.

It all depends from the end of 2024 onwards, despite what a lot of users say, there’s a lot of potential to continue sales healthy.



PS4 numbers as usual. GTA VI and PS5 Pro...

I voted 100-110m thinking it would be closer to 110m, now I am thinking it will be closer to 100m



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

Nooooo, my dear NES is dead...

Jokes aside, PS5 is doing really well. I expect it to outsell the 3DS really soon.
