If they can get an affordable VR solution out the door to the masses. Hoo boy
I really wonder how they track sold through numbers now. It was fairly obvious for the first year, when the channels didn't have many PS4's in stock, but now? Since they even count to 0.2 million their method seems to be precise. Anyone wants to chime in on this?
The first party software lacking brings up interesting point though. Like many are already saying, third party multiplat plays bigger and bigger role as time passes, and Sony diverted more energy to make machine to server the purpose. I must say they were very smart doing so.
Console is great but first party software wise a letdown for now. So I really don't get how it's selling so much. Congrats to them anyways.
Next year it's going to explode
10 million sold in 6 weeks? No chance. 4.1 million PS4's were sold in the last 6 weeks of 2014, and it's not doing more than double that this year.

Bias? I own all of the consoles out there. In any case I don't want to derail the conversation, I've been enjoying my time with my PS4 a lot. Still, we are facing an incredible success here and - even if maybe exclusives are not that important evidently - these numbers are still surprising to me. PS2 was packed with exclusives and it practically had no serious competition...I mean...
Think what you want, but understand the scoffing that will accompany your oft repeated, unfounded assertion that's viewed through the lens of your particular bias.
It took PS2 26 months to hit 30 million. PS4 did it in 24 months.

They might actually hit 35 million by the end of 2015.

Cause we are in the ball park of best selling console of all Times and I don't think we are nearly there in terms of quality if we don't consider only the hardware, imo. But yes I'm not disturbed by this in the slightest, Just surprised.you're enjoying a product a lot, why are you surprised it's selling well? I don't quite understand the logic here.

Anyway, congrats! Well deserved, what a great console! Now for 40 million.
Can we at least get to page 10 before we commence the 'PS4hasnogames/I don't get what people are playing on it - diatribe?
No freaking way. Is it that low..guys!? Guys??What's the latest prediction on microsoft's numbers? ~15m?
Wow, what a tempo.
How should we tune our expectations for future now when Japan is basically gone frome home console sales?
What would be really good number for ps4 in the end?
Update on what I wrote.

It's probably a little bit lower.No freaking way. Is it that low..guys!? Guys??
doesnt fucking matter how many games sony releases on ps4 they will still have no games
There's probably another 120 million PS4s out there. 4 out of 5 of my friends bought their PS4s digitally.
