Dreams and MediEvil have a lot of potential for tapping into that family friendly market that is brimming towards the later years of a console's life.

PS4 100m ship is not as impressive as other's 100m consider the number is highly inflated by double dippers with PS4 Pro.
The number of unique owner probably much lower than PS1, PS2.

Yeah, that's my point. No one cared about the one major Wii that was significantly different. Both the Wii and the PS1 didn't really have any significant revisions for people to rush out and buy. With revisions like slim models, "New!" models, lite models, mid-gen refreshes, etc . . . You can sell your product again to people that already bought one. Neither Wii or PS1 really made use of that.
You think people werent double dipping for slim revisions in previous generations?
Hell I owned 2 360's and 2 PS3's over the generation (Due to RROD and YLOD).
And to think there were people here who acted like Sony's numbers were going to be way down just like Microsoft's were lol. Perfect example of the Era bubble. This is what happens when your console isn't just mainly bought in the US.
Umm, no? You greatly overestimate the amount of double dippers lol, it probably amounts to 2% at most.
I'd say it should end its run with roughly 130-135M barring any major surprise.
Roughly 115M by the same point next year. 8M in the following fiscal year if PS5 is indeed launching in fall 2020, then a slower but steady pace for a few more years.

Hard to compare though. The PS1 and PS2 both had multiple slim versions as well.
Also the PS4 Pro only accounts for a relatively small part of total PS4 sales.
Edit: also different price points, the PS1/PS2 were eventually sold at a much lower price point.
What do people think it would take for the narrative from some people of Sony only succeeding because of luck instead of actual decisions made?
I mean they have 4 out of 5 of the best selling home consoles and total games sales too.
Are we forever destined to have to listen to these ignorant arguments or is there some mythical thing they could do?

Funny part is if I m not mistaken he only owns PS4 and not x1 XD.
I think he does it on purpose to get reactions
Anyways , forcast reduction means no price cut.
Which means ps5 is 499.
In 2020:
Ps5:499
Pro:349
PS4:249
Oh, that's why this page is wonky for me. Put wapplew on ignore ages ago. He's painfully unfunny or just a sad fanboy.
Well yeah might be, but you have to be a special kind of bored to do this as frequently as he does.
It's doing so great, even at this point in its life. Even with ps5 coming so soon I think it will finish between 140-150 million. Well deserved.
With Ghost of Tsushima to follow. InFamous Second Son released in early 2014 and still looks graphically very impressive. Ghost is going to be a real looker.
They r not cutting price this year
So 2020 they will cut 50 $ off pro and PS4:
Pro:349
PS4:249
Which means ps5 is not 399 but rather 499
If they have a solid launch, dont fuck up the price and or any media conferences ala xbox the PS5 will topple the PS2 record
Not to be negative but for a 100 million sell through console I would put money that this is where the platform isn't doing as Rosie as to be expected. I would imagine the majority of PS4 purchases are for fortnite, fifa madden etc. Which is to be expected.
I remember when we would get reports of gears of war selling 6 million copies in a week on 360. I feel like this isn't happening this Gen.
I figured this was the case for a little while now. They wanted to keep PS4 price stable in order to keep revenue/profit going into next gen. A next gen launch is crazy expensive, so they want to bring in as much money as possible to support that.
Lmao imagine thinking Sony isn't doing well with exclusives.
This never happened.
But all these games (expect days gone )are already above 10 million.so their numbers are already impressive ,so I don't know why they wouldn't say it and not do that randomly update from their devs .
Btw speaking of gears, it pains me to see what MS has done with gears marketing.my favorite game from 360 which had so much hype and marketing is now has hit on YouTube below 500k .which used to be 7 million + in 360.era
Gears of War did not sell anywhere close to 6 million in a week. Not even Halo did that.
Sony is doing extremely well with exclusives.
I must have got mixed up with gears. I'm sure gears 2 sold like 4 million in its first few weeks or something like that.
Or it must have been halo 3. Apologies.
Sony will no doubt have big plans for the PS5 given the strength and importance of the Playstation brand.
I couldn't be more excited!

Sony's first party success is the most underrated story this gen. Last gen, they started with a very slim output that grew as the gen went by, but this time it's a smash success after a smash success. I mean, Days Gone, a genetic zombie game made by a small studio (by today's standards) has been seling millions, a feat rarely achieved by Sony only 6-7 years ago. Their progress has been astonishing.
They'll update when GoW 2, HZD2 is coming probably, Sony have always been a bit random with that stuff. Milestones don't matter as Uncharted 4 and TLoU showed, both past 10m and 15m without a peep.
They usually give week/month 1 updates. Spidey and GoW for example both did over 3m in 3 days I think.
True . I think days gone has sold better than uncharted 1 even (launch aligned ) which is a feat in itself for sony.their tiny studio that hasn't done AAA games in 18 years ,does their first try and sells amazing.(better than naughty dog in ps3 era)
If Sony wouldn't have fucked up and send review copies before bugs were patched the score would be in low 80s.(reviewers reviewed the game before the patch was live )
Wii mini might have bombed - but PS One was a pretty big deal.
For reference - the revision alone sold 30M between 2000 and 2004. Ie. it easily beat LTD of GCN and XBox, by itself.
I'd argue PSOne probably started the whole trend by showing how successful redesigns can be.
According to Shinji Mikami the PS1 and PS2 sold so well because they were made out of bad quality so people had to keep buying new ones.
