Looks like PR just went out for the new updated numbers

Worth noting this pace is actually the fastest the PS4 has ever sold in the first half of the year.

[Asd202]

Hmm wonder what shipped numbers are. Should pass 3DS this year maybe even in September with Destiny 2.

 

[ElfArmy177]

Damn Sony

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Whew.

 

[Blablurn]

Will the hype ever end? Doesn't look like it. Impressive sales.

 

[Fat4all]

that's a lot of schmeckles

 

[hanspampel]

Tie ratio of 8 games
10 hours per user in one week

 

[Brian_FETO]

No DMC5, sales plummeting

 

[Jigolo]

70 million in the December update

 

[GHG]

It just doesn't stop at this point. It's a shame they had such a weak E3 in terms of new announcements.

I hope those who complain about stuff being showed too early are satisfied.

 

[Acquiescence]

Just wait until consumers catch whiff of that September release date for Knack 2.

 

[Arc]

Hot damn. I need some charts now.

 

[Ricky Ricardo]

That's a monster number, GG Sony

 

[Donthizz#]

did they add 6million more ps+ members.

 

[dmr87]

Prints money.

 

[Kolx]

No DMC5, sales plummeting

Knack 2 to the rescue. 100 million by the end of the year confirmed.

 

[Kayant]

Oh we get hours per week now.
Scorpio.

might be weak but we all know D2 going to kill it this holiday with the top games like Knack 2 to edge it along nicely.

 

[Ricky_R]

Meh

 

[Samanosuke Akechi]

It's just launch hype. It'll die off in a few months.

 

[Fast Forward]

Not surprising. Sony is obviously gonna win this generation. X1 is far behind on a commercial level, and the Wii U is a distant third, and has been discontinued. Switch, for all the great success it has had so far, is apart of the following generation.

While I'm someone who is all in on digital across all media, let alone video games, Microsoft clearly made the wrong move on digital. Instead of trying to twist the arm of the average Gamer on digital, or force them via policy, they should have taken Steam approach from the start by offering better deals than physical. Thankfully, Microsoft, along with Sony, has gotten a lot better as of late by offering great deals on digital game sales.

 

[Toki767]

They sold 7 million units in 5 months and 10 days.

 

[De_Legend]

2018-2019 is going to be nuts for them, NUTS!

 

[ShooterMcGavin]

Just your quarterly "console gaming is dead" reminder.

 

[AngelOFDeath]

Wait till Knack 2 drop

 

[MCD250]

60 million shipped announcement was at the end of April, as I recall.

The stuff they complained about showing too early last year are now coming out this year or next year. Funny how that works, time keeps moving forward?

 

[The Artisan]

Oh we get hours per week now.
Scorpio.

there's a proper name for that thing now, xbone x

 

[jmdajr]

Running on autopilot

 

[yurinka]

This is what happens when you lauch a console with Knack

 

[Welfare]

We can estimate Pro sold ~1.4M this year going off of Sony's 1 in 5 comment.

This is also the fastest PS4 has sold in this period I believe. Up from last year.

WW growth is incredible to see. Sony just raking it in.

 

[Magic Mushroom]

2018-2019 is going to be nuts for them, NUTS!

This holiday season as well, with the marketing for Fifa, Destiny 2, CoD, Battlefront 2 and FC 5.

 

[Jawbreaker]

They're going to sell like gangbusters during the holidays. Lots of potential bundles.

 

[Omotesando]

PS4 even picking up steam with consoler revival in Japan yo.

 

[BigTnaples]

Fucking hell. Insane.

 

[Mr Moose]

Tie ratio of 8 games
10 hours per user in one week

Is that good? (I have way more than 8 games).

Also, DAMN!

 

[RootCause]

Congrats to them.

 

[SenkiDala]

The Xbox reached 30M?

And how good is it compared to the PS2?

 

[Apparition]

Just wait until consumers catch whiff of that September release date for Knack 2.

I mean, at $40, who can resist!? Shame that Sony condemned it to the Pre-Show. This could have been the star of the show.

 

[RoKKeR]

Insanity.

Was hoping for a price cut but I guess I know why there wasn't one.

 

[delSai]

Wonder how many people sold their Ps4s after the E3 conference

Spoiler

They deserve it, Ps4s been kicking ass.

 

[cyber_ninja]

Who cares about units sold, give us MAUS!!

 

[De_Legend]

This holiday season as well, with the marketing for Fifa, Destiny 2, CoD Battlefront 2 and FC 5.

Yep 👍🏻

 

[Fdkn]

They are selling faster than any other year

So much for channel stuffing to reach 60m shipment

 

[hanspampel]

60 million shipped announcement was at the end of April, as I recall.

As of March 2017

 

[MaximumSpider]

Yeah, looks no price cut this year besides the holiday cut they have every year

 

[Strangelove77]

Think of all the sad Minecraft children.

 

[Ricky_R]

Wonder how many of those 60.4 million were driven by Knack.

 

[Arkam]

And they havent even hit that $199 super saiyan price point yet.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Is that good? (I have way more than 8 games).

Also, DAMN!

It's quite good. For example, the Wii's final attach rate was 8.84. It's something that builds up over the course of a system life.
