This is from their quarterly earnings, shipment figures.
Not the usual Sony PR "we sell-out"
Ah. Disregard my previous comment. It's 4am and I am heading to work and forgot to sleep.

Any updated graphs of PS4 tracking against Wii and PS2?

Sony hasn't released any official PR. This is from Eurogamer.

from the other thread:
That's some barebones OP. It should at least include the game business operating results, if not Sony overall. =P
LTD at the same point:
Wii: 24.45m
PS4: 22.30m
Worldwide shipments january/february/march of year:
Wii 2008: 4.32m
PS2 2002: 3.69m
PS4 2015: 2.40m
PS3 2008: 2.20m
PS1 1996: 0.90m

The console is still a joke when it comes to the game library. Two years in.
The way things are going can't see this success lasting long... The ball is in Sony's hands now.

All too easy for Sony, where's the competition gone? Say the PS4 was released 20 years ago, would have made for a much more interesting "fight".....you had Sega still on the scene, Nintendo still giving as good as it gets...Atari still trying to make in-roads, 3DO/Matsushita threatening to de-rail the PS4 momentum with the imminent launch of the M2...(and in this instance the console actually DOES come out..)
22 million people disagree with you.

As good or better then the competition so I guess that's all that's needed.
Library has never had much to with sales, just look at the Dreamcast and Wii U
That said your initial point is subjective at best, and I think "has no games" as a general comment is frowned upon
Joke post? Honestly can't tell

Five hours late? Do you write for Kotaku?
I'll admit that I didn't even see the other thread, so thanks OP

This is troll post, right? Because after the recent release of Bloodborne, probably the most critically acclaimed exclusive on next-gen platforms which is not a remaster, there's left no reason for such an ignorant comment.

Illness is the doctor to whom we pay most heed; to kindness, to knowledge, we make promise only; pain we obey.
There's almost a 2:1 ratio in games released on the next-gen siblings so the competition must really be struggling then.

Based on your post there are plenty of balls in hands. However none of it has anything to do with Sony.
Anyway back OT, it'll be interesting to see how the sales go throughout the rest of the year. As to whether they'll build from last year or whether there'll be a decline.

Great sales here! Any idea what Xb1 has sold till now? Not trying to start anything. Just curious.
What is your definition of an "acceptable" game library? Serious question.

Yeah man. No reason at all its selling this much. Like where are the games man? You've got the Order 1886, Infamous Second Son, Driveclub, Bloodborne, all the multiplats. Man no games at all. An utter joke. I mean look at the indie games. Who even likes those? Resogun, Shovel Knight BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

There is no logic in your post:
1) ''console is a joke when it comes to games'' is entirely objective so I give you that.
2) ''The way thing are going can't see this succes lasting long''. Things are going great, so the way things are going suggests things are going great and continues to do so?
3) ''The ball is in sony's hand now''. No it isn't, they cruisin'.

It's slow going this time of the year isn't it.
Sure, but then when your console options are PS4, Xbox One or WiiU, and you have a concern for libraries and support in future, the PS4 is still a bit of a no brainer. Then again, I'm PC only for similar reasons

And then end of summer hits, and your wallet gets destroyed. And then people still say there are no games.

Great news as always from the unstoppable ps4 machine.
I don't know how much you know about games consoles (I'm an expert).

Ha oh man, well nice knowing you.
A lot of people think that only AAA exclusives count and are confused why so many people would be satisfied with a system that mostly houses multiplatform titles and is light on the quality exclusives. Of course, the answer is the fact that most current gen gamers own a PS4 OR a Xbox One OR a Gaming PC and not all 3 like several people on GAF do.
I have some casual friends who own a PS4 (not people who even search game websites or forums) and they seem very happy with their console.
So I dunno...
