[Ryng_tolu]

Congrats Sony.

Amazing sales.

 

[Nibel]

PS4 is a beast.

 

[Conduit]

And how many shipped? Anybody?

 

[Kosma]

Wow!

[Ethelwulf]

Consoles are alive

 

[Paskil]

Jesus.

 

[JimJamJones]

Psh, can't even 36 million? Come on, Sony.

Spoiler

That's pretty impressive

 

[Bear Force One]

Kingdom Come.

 

[hushlorentz]

Damn, just think. If I had picked one up for Xmas, it could have been 36M. I let you all down.

 

[jaypah]

Very nice numbers!

 

[evilr]

An actual sales figure. That's what we like.

 

[timlot]

Nice numbers, though some were saying it would hit 40M by end of year.

 

[Ryng_tolu]

Now, let's hope they shipped over 8 million, or under 8 million, and not precise 8 million, because if so i'm fucked.

 

[piccio_ssl]

 

[Radec]

What a beast.

 

[Nakkilokki]

Gaming consoles are dead.

 

[McDougles]

Is this a crow-eating thread?

 

[matmanx1]

Wow, wow, wow! What an impressive number. Quite a turnaround for Sony this gen. Looks like focusing on the pure gaming experience at a fair price has helped them tremendously. I don't see 2016 slowing down any either, especially with the strong release schedule PS4 has.

Also, two threads active, should probably merge those!

 

[Rajang]

That's alot.

 

[Ravek]

I love that Sony is always clear with the "sold through" terminology.

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

That 0.1 short is bugging me.

 

[MrFatCat]

It just couldn't stop

 

[Carl]

Consoles are dead RIP

 

[Ricky_R]

PS4 is officially the most successful console ever with no games.

 

[SgtCobra]

What games are they playing doe

 

[Cyborg]

Amazing news, congrats Sony.

Spoiler

This is the real reason PSN was down, to many users to handle

 

[jmaine_ph]

So 36 million? Nice.

 

[Tecnniqe]

 

[Machina]

Sony:

 

[EPaul]

I said Goddamn!

 

[FelipeMGM]

5.7 million consoles sold trough the holidays.

That is half of the WIi U installbase, dayum Sony

 

[Blobbers]

Now imagine how much it would sell if it had actual gamfdsfhj

 

[Grinchy]

Wow, it's going to hit 40 million before it has any games!

 

[Blanquito]

Neo-whoh.gif

 

[DieH@rd]

Truly great sales.

 

[1st Course]

Now it passed the N64 final sale figure.

Next is SNES at 49 million.

 

[Carl]

Nice numbers, though some were saying it would hit 40M by end of year.

I know some people said that about the fiscal year, don't remember any people saying that about 2015 though?

 

[ohyouagain]

That is positively impressive. They are really trying to try to match that PS2 lifetime sales figure, are they.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Whoa. Big numbers.

 

[sense]

Ps4 is a beast

 

[Bgamer90]

Amazing. That's pretty much 6 million for the month of December alone right?

 

[Filthy Casual]

GG Sony

 

[OrbitalBeard]

What was the last official number and when was it announced?

Edit - Looks like they sold close to six million consoles over the holidays.

 

[Rosur]

damn and no big 1st part exclusives yet.

 

[dc89]

Impressive numbers!
