The PlayStation 4 is a success for Sony. That is something that seems to be confirmed for a long time, but also, its sales will soon exceed those of the PS3. The Japanese firm has presented its financial results of the last quarter of the previous year. Among the data is the sales they have obtained from the PlayStation 4. Only in the last quarter they have been 9 million.
To these good figures we must add to the console that it has already sold 67,5 million so far. So the sum of everything gives us sales of this Sony console of 76,5 million worldwide.
Some figures that They are already very close to those that the PlayStation 3 obtained in its day. Since the previous generation console has achieved sell about 80 million units worldwide. The true figure is estimated to be 83,8 million consoles sold. So the new generation is about to outperform these sales.
In a few months PlayStation 4 will have managed to surpass the PS3. Although, it is still very far from the sales that the PlayStation 2 obtained in its day. The second generation of consoles continues to be Sony's greatest success worldwide. Its sales are around 150 million units, although some media place them at 157 million. So it's twice what the PS4 carries.
Therefore, we can see that the PlayStation 4 is being a success for Sony. Surely in a few months it will have already surpassed the previous generation. So it will have to be seen with what sales figures close this year. And we'll see it whether or not to approach the second generation.
In addition, it seems that the financial results accompany Sony. Since the Japanese company has seen how the benefits have been eleven times greater than in the same period of the previous year. So things are going well with the company.
