I do apologize if this has been posted already. What a great achievement.
100million is pretty much given in 2019.

PS4 is a beast!

Sony has not press released this. So this is not true, more than likely.

Plus, this was at 1am this morning GMT. News will have been long out by now. The fact it hasn't tells you a lot.

there's no source on that it's just a tweet
even though they obviously sold the 4 millions units left during Q3 to reach 90M

You are right! They are probably way up this around 93-94 mi units.

Excluding handhelds, it's crazy that 4 of the top 6 best selling consoles of all time will all be PlayStations, with 3 of those being over 100 million.

Figure what, the PS4 will maybe end around 110 million or so? Maybe even a little more, considering it may continue to sell after PS5 releases.

PS5 in 2019 more likely

 

[Primethius]

There's not a source there.

 

[Pablo Mesa]

it may continue to sell after PS5 releases.

for the sake of PS5, they dont want another PS2 to PS3 scenario.

I'd take this info with a massive grain of salt (although I guess 90+ mil should be a given anyway) because the same person also tweeted that the Switch has surpassed 25 million sold when it should be much higher at this point.

 

[SinCItyAssassin]

I mean I'd be surprised if they didn't sell more than 4 mil during the third quarter.

Lets wait for Sony press release, they usually have one in early January.

More than likely looking at 115m+ by the end of its life. Also inb4 lock.

Base ps4 is the best console this generation with the best exclusives. it is known.

Congrats to sony for all the effort.

Their shipped numbers, yes. actual sell-through number could plausibly be around 25 million. It was around 18 million sell-through at the end of last quarter with about 23 million shipped. But again, no real PR.

It’s totally going to break 100M sometime in 2019... 120M+ by the ends of its lifetime.

This guy's tweeted legit sales numbers in the past. Seems to be a decent analyst.

Do you have a source for the 18 million sell-through?

Themselves. https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2018/181031_2e.pdf

 

[Kyoufu]

where's the source

 

[Nightengale]

Not an official announcement. You may make this thread again once there's an official PR on the matter.
