Sad numbers.

Sony is doing something wrong if those games aren't selling very well. If those numbers are true bloodborne sold like trash and every other game sold not well relative to ps4 success and marketing.

Yeah, wait until the earings call including the meme-flu period. Vidya companies are making mad profit right now.

for sake of transparency, let clarify

those are publicly revealed numbers and sold to user end

not current full shipped numbers

This already includes Jan to March nigga...

The beginning sales are the most important,after sales often don't sell well especially for heavily advertised games.

if anything is to take from that is the lack of Death Stranding, which means it likely was a massive flop

Bump

Last of us 2 will underperform too. Don't even mention the samurai game everyone forgot.

but, those game have not released yet...

sony can blame it on the WOO~han virus once PS5s start literally burning up

they have another model in the making for mid gen, and they are hoping to survive two years of consoles exploding in people's homes

>they have another model in the making for mid gen
>mid gen
this is PS4 last year of its gen, what fucking mid gen model?

>If those numbers are true bloodborne sold like trash
that says 1 million in 11 days, and never updated the number after that. that does not mean it only sold 1 million lifetime

rip physical games

something in the lines of a PS5 PRO.
however, next gen will be different because early PS4s didn't fail this gen. PS5s will burn up, and sony is looking to "survive" that for two years until they release the upgraded PS5 with new parts that won't end up exploding

nah, its the same jump Nintendo had due to Corona

not sure if Burn up, but likely will not have it as easy as on PS4 cause Switch is on a roll and Microsoft (at least hardware wise) seems to be doing a decent jump too

I usually don't buy a new console until after 2-3 years that's when new consoles really get into the groove of things

>Last of us 2
Cope. It will be a big success.
