Sony Predicts Over 22.6 Million PS5s Sold Per Year


Recommended Posts

The Sony Group held a general meeting of shareholders in Tokyo on the morning of the 22nd. President Kenichiro Yoshida said, "We would like to accelerate the supply of the PlayStation (PS) 5" home video game console, which continues to be in short supply, and achieve annual sales of more than 22.6 million units, which is the largest ever in the history of PS. Emphasized. Against the backdrop of demand for "Nesting", we aim to break the sales record of the first PS in 1998.

Nah, the only reason it has sold at this rate is scalpers, bots and COVID bucks.

Dyno's scalping business model: Buy every console and just store them for eternity. Business genius :drake:

 

Even if you believe the stupid shit you say, what do you think it means if scalpers are continually buying PS5s....

And the fact people are still buying at inflated prices means the demand is huge. Imagine if the stock was widely available lmao. Literally one of the WOAT takes ever. :danylol:

The level of dumb you need to be to make that take is hilarious because it's actually saying that there is even more demand than any of these threads state :biggrin:

 

His post is literally 'Demand is so big that scalpers are still trying to buy them 8 months after launch because they are still constantly selling at above MSRP prices'. What massive Sony ownage :drake:

Notice how Sony likes giving hard, well-defined numbers of PS5s that get sold, and they even go so far as to project how big the demand is that they give a projection of how many they could sell if demand isn't an issue.

 

......all the while, Microsoft can't seem to give us hard statistics on GamePass.

 

So, PS5 is around 7.4 million or something like that, and they feel that they could sell another 22 million within the next 12 months if they had the stock?  29 million, possibly.

 

Who gets to 30 million first? Sony with their PS5 hardware? Or Microsoft with GamePass subscriptions?

 

The sheer fact that it would be a close race is embarrassing for one of those two.
