The Bone costs $50 less, MS gives away over a $100 in extra stuff, and it's still being outsold in the US. To me that indicates that it really isn't that close. What is MS going to do when Sony drops the price of the PS4? MS built a weaker, less appealing system and they're probably literally paying the price for it.

20.2 million people bought a console solely for Bloodborne.

My PS4 will finally get some use.
And I can't blame them

That's nuts. Don't see any price drop soon.

Maybe they can bundle a PS4 with the X1s
Really good numbers for Sony, but I do wonder how much of its success is down to them but the trainwreck XB1 has been for the most part. MS really dropped the ball after making massive strides with the 360 in US and Europe. Its allowed Sony to pretty much steamroll with little software.

This is MS' endgame. Buy a X1, get a PS4 and play it through the HDMI in. Twice the power, twice the fun with the power of The One

If it was last gen, this would have been shocking.
But Japan's decline in the game industry has been documented for quite some time now. North America and the rest of the world are bigger markets for plug and play console gaming.

The PS4 has killer software. Today alone both Helldivers and OlliOlli 2 came out, insanely good line-up.

Ah I forgot that Batman is a June release and maybe MGS will hit then as well. Wow might actually not lose too much momentum through those months then

Not retail exclusives so therefore they cannot count.
Remember the rule of 3.
I anticipate 24-25 million by E3. Too many games are on the way.

It happens in every thread. One person wonders why the other 20 million people can't have the same opinion of every piece of software that they do.
The sales speak for themselves. Let the opinions be.

How long until Sony gets arrogant again?
27m?? 31m+
It's like 20.2 million people ignore all of the biggest selling games and only care about exclusives. Of those 20.2 million people, I wonder what people do if they don't own a capable PC or an Xbone and want to play games like Assassin's Creed or Destiny or CoD.

Monster numbers. It will definitely be interesting to see what developers think of the gap in sales between PS4 and Xbox One. What's the point of going exclusive to MS when the competition has twice the install base? No amount of dumptrucks with money can compensate for that.
you're very, very pessimist with this number
It did 18 million in the first year, you think it's only going to sell another -7- this year?

This shows how little PS4 depends on the U.S. because the January NPD was less than 200K. Think about that.
Very good for them (and hopefully for ps4 owners too).
With this pace you're actually being pessimistic.

No, they certainly don't need to. And yes, they do have the luxury of being able to take a global view. But a global view is lazy; they should look at each region on its own. Why not be more aggressive in your competition's strongest market?
"Taking the profit" is short-sighted, because it's profit now vs. (more) profit later. A console sold now equals games sold over the course of the entire generation. Why give up those game sales to your competition for the sake of $50? Why concede Q4 when that's literally conceding half the year, sales-wise, in that market?
Sony knew how to press their advantage in the past.

We've been quite consistently updated on PS4 sales. Guess it's smart to be loud and proud wheb you're selling this much.

It won't be the same. Kutaragi isn't there.
Amazing.
Plus there's probably a huge number of people like myself who are just waiting for a few more exclusives to drop before buying one. PS4 is going to have a huge generation, and after all of Microsoft's bullshit both before and after launching the Xbone...it's well deserved.

FFXV.. This year. I needed a good laugh for the day.
Please tell me you're not serious.
Too early. My guess is that will require a smaller manufacturing process for the APU, and that probably won't happen for a little while.
