Sony Expects PS5 To Sell More Than PS4 Did In Its First Fiscal Year

>Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO, Jim Ryan, has said that he believes more PlayStation 5 consoles will be sold in its first fiscal year than the amount of PS4s sold in the same period.Talking to Korean site Naver (via Gamesindustry.biz), Ryan predicted that PS5 will “sell more in its first fiscal year than [we] sold in the first fiscal year at the time of [the] PS4 launch.”

>For reference, between its launch in November 2013 and the end of the fiscal year in April 2014, the PS4 sold more than seven million units. That means that Sony is forecasting more than seven million PS5 sales before next April, despite the current pandemic economy.

>Previously there had been rumours that the pandemic had disrupted supply to the point that only four million consoles would be able to be produced this fiscal year, but with Sony seemingly confident about selling over seven million, it appears that rumour holds no water. Another report had suggested that the high price point of the console would affect demand, but Sony appears to not be worried about that.

well they kinda have to unless they want to go bankrupt

?
They make 90bn a year

I hope it fails.
That would be best for gaming as a whole.

Every company expects to sell more of something than the prior thing.

and they lose all that trying to keep the rest of sony alive

Like Nintendo with the Wii U?

? No they don't.
The only aspect of their business that lost money was movies and TVs, but their last movie was Venom and made like 8 gorillian bucks

>twitter thread
stupid faggot

Yes. and they failed.
