How the fuck is the PS4 selling so well?

penis

check out this 5

The system is almost 4 years old. 60 million units is pretty good, but not spectacular. If it keeps selling ~15 million units per year, it will sell around 90 million units by the end of its life cycle. Call it 100 just to be generous, and that's Wii-levels, but it's still 50 million short of the PS2.

>60 million after 3 years

Holy shit

#4theplayers is not a meme

By actually having games. People vote with their wallet despite the meme's on 4chan, thats what drones fail to understand.

>Almost 4 years old

It's just turned 3 years and a half old

>pretty good

Literally the fastest selling console i've ever seen. PS2/PS3/PS1

For reference, the Wii was at 56 million sales at this point in its life span

the better question is: how can Xbox One sell 30 million units by having only 2 exclusives an 1 of them sold less than 1m?

Because it's simply the most complete console. It gets practically every game.

It's also the best paired with PC (this is what I do).

PC + PS4 gets you

>Multiplats/Emulation - PC
>Console/Sony exclusives - PS4

Xbox One + PC is redundant
Switch + PC simply makes you miss out on far too many games and also has the added risk of being emulated like all Nintendo consoles which also makes them redundant

why not all?
ps4 -> exclusives
xbox -> exclusives
switch -> exclusives
pc -> multiplats

snowball effect

>Jim buys a PS4
>Jim's friend, Mike, buys a PS4 to play games with Jim
>Mike's friends buy a PS4 to play with Mike
>rinse and repeat until 60 million sales

>>380557294

I actually think this shit didn't even get to 30 yet, i think they're at 28.

>>380557642
switch + PS4 gets you every single game released that's worth playing

Because Sony are the king.

Memes aside, they just are. Just look at the facts, even their WORST SELLING CONSOLE (PS3), still hit 85 million fucking sales.

Sony are simply, the kings.

Because they ate Nintendo's lunch back in the 1990s and never looked back

>>380557642
PC doesn't care about you nigger

Xbox shit the bed with the Xbox One release ("We got a console you can play offline, called the xbox 360!") and WiiU never took off.

PS4 was filling a massive power-gap that is slowly being refilled by the Switch and the Xbox one

>>380557876
>Microsoft gave up in 2009 with the Kinect
>Microsoft fucked up with Xbone launch
>Sony are good

PS4's success is owed to it not being an Xbone

>pretty much plays all video games except for a few xbox games
>very good marketing
>very affordable
>brand name going strong for the past 20 years or so
>main competitor almost comitted suicide when they revealed their product
How's that even a question? You don't have to be a genius to understand how it's doing it.

>>380557791

Xbox/Switch have no exclusives right now

>>380557847

What Switch exclusives are there worht playing?

>>380558085
None at the moment. I should've put Wii U, since it does have exclusives worth playing. Nintendo consoles are in a bad spot right now though, with the Switch having no current exclusives and the Wii U being dead

>>380558056

>PS4s success is owed to it not being an Xbox One

Just like when the PS1 dominated?
Just like when the PS2 dominated?
Just like when the PS3 came second despite the horrible launch?
Just like the PS4 is now dominating?

Please nigger, Sony wins because Sony are god

>>380557791
because some of us don't have money and actually have to make choices.

>>380557223
How? Also I literally saw some crazy fuck predcit his entire post number a few years ago on /fit/, wish I screencapped it, it only got like 20 replies as well. How was that possible as well?

>>380556761
I dont know but it made it get some actual games in the process so I'm ok with this

Getting one next year for MonHun

>>380558336
I got lucky.
If a board is slow enough, being able to predict the last number of your post is as easy as predicting the entire post number. Fast places like /v/ it's mostly luck or scripts.

>>380558293
okay, okay, but to be fair, Sony has made a habit of playing it safe against competition that's more willing to experiment.

>PS1 goes up against the Sega Saturn, which thought was made for 2D games, and while the N64 was more forward thinking with the 3D emphasis, its cartridges led to more expensive games, and the delays gave Sony a more than generous headstart

>PS2 had to take on the dreamcast, which was like warrior with aids, all they had to do with them was wait. The gamecube had the more powerful system, but started to be massive cunts to their third parties. Those same third parties were also hesitant to work with the new kid on the block in the Xbox.

>PS3 again, despite selling at a loss just to get their numbers up, started gaining actual heat in 2009 when Nintendo went full Wii music, and when Microsoft went full Natal. All sony needed to do was let the third parties do their job.

>PS4 still benefited from Xbone's late retardation. And at that point, nobody wants to buy the other console, because them and their friends already have the same one.

The history of the playstation brand is simply told as the one brother who wasn't a chronic retard.

I still haven't gotten one, just don't feel like there are enough must-have games that I'd be interested in
