Poll Will PS4 reach 35 million by the end of the year? (62 votes)
PS4 has been doing very good but I'm wondering if the PS4 will reach 35 million by the end of the year. Here's a look at what they have that makes me believe they probably will.
Now if things go well, especially outside of NA, the PS4 will be at 25 million sold by august. This give the PS4 only a 10 million gap to reach 35 million by the end of the year.
Now last year, Sony sold 4.1 million in November and December World-Wise. It moved 1.5 million in between Sept and October thanks to Destiny. I do not recall what they did in August but it was under 1 million WW.
Ignoring august, that's 5.6 million units. That was with Destiny and a meh Holiday season.
However some changes is that inAugust, the PS4 will be ramping things up toward another Destiny DLC, and MGSV, especially for Europe which will have a bundle. Gamescom will also have an effect.
If things are played right September, and it's after fall in October, along with a couple of games releasing then as well, will easily be over 3 million WW (that's all countries PS4 is released in.)
Then with that momentum, with a price drop (regardless if 50$E or 100) You have a couple more games coming out, marketing deals, and bundles of big name games and smaller franchises, along with the announcements and paris game week, The starwars movie, and the PSX event which will be teased and revel even more games.
I see at least almost/near almost double the 4.1 million of last year for the holiday season. I'm expecting at least 6-7 million Between November and December.
This would give PS4 sales during that 5 month period 10-11+ million starting from August. That would easily put it at 35-37 area.
