Forums - Sales - Is SONY's 13 Million PS3 Projection looking LIKELY now?

They will do between 6 and 8 million over the holiday season alone. Just think... GT5 and FF13 two of the biggest and most robust sellers around BACK to BACK, enough said!

I think they'll ship 7.5 million for Q3. They already shipped 1.1 million in Q1. That leaves 4.4 million left for Q2 and Q4 and they already sold 1.2 million this quarter with 3 weeks left. That leaves 3.2 million.



13 mill is actually quite probable. Total shipments this financial year to date would have been in excess of 3mill with the buildup of the slim. They now have 10mill to achieve in 6 months - the busiest 6 months of the year.

The 360 shipped 7.7mill in the Dec and March quarters in 2008/09. Add another 1 mill for the month of September and thats 8.7mill shipped.

PS3 should ship another 1 mill in September, followed by 7 mill in Dec quarter (6.0mill X360 shipped this quarter in 2008) and 2mill in the March 2010 quarter (vs 1.7 X360 in March 2009)

Not only possible but probable.



lol the week GT5 releases sony will sell a like 1+ million ps3's in europe ALONE! damn i wonder how much ps3 is gonna sell in december worldwide. is 5 million too much?



Anything is possible, but 30 days from now we should have a better feel for what legs this price increase is going to have. The 360's price drop around the same time last year boosted sales significantly all the way into this year, but that cut did bring the machine down to the magical

This is an even more bold prediction than BHR-3's... wanna bet?



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

What a change from Sony is doomed and guessing when they will sell their enterteinment division threads from last months :D
