PlayStation 4 sales look set to beat the Wii’s record for reaching 100 million units, with one analyst’s projections putting it on course with the PS2’s sales figures.
Figures for the Global Console shipment chart suggest that PlayStation 4 sales are about to beat the Nintendo Wii’s record for the time needed to reach 100 million units sold. PS4 sales are currently flowing in at around the same rate as those for the PlayStation 2, what was then the most successful console of the time. The PS2’s records were eventually topped by the Wii, and with over 94 million units sold since late 2013, the PS4 is now set to break the record again.
The sales figures and chart come via Daniel Ahmad, a video games analyst, and they illustrate just how much life is still kicking in the PS4, despite the rumors swirling about a PS5 announcement in 2020.
