PSVR 2 sold ~600k, 8% more than PSVR 1 in first 6 weeks. Poor Bloomberg/Mochizuki

With the PSVR 2 much higher price, retail availability, and install base of the PS5, surpassing the first PSVR for now is pretty damn good


As a reminder :

Oh no, must be fake. MS shills told me otherwise.

 

[AshHunter216]

Seems like Sony Q&A is going on right now in Japan.

Around my estimate.
I estimated worldwide 700k for end of March saying the 270k was almost impossible.

Tuned out it was ~600k… 100k less than I estimated.

Here where I told 270k worldwide was bullshit and Circana only should be around that.

(Analyst speculation, not official announcement) Sony cuts production of PSVR2 headsets by ~20%

Maybe you'll read it with pictures you'll 'use your brain': And notice the part highlighted in blue: Yes, it was officially debunked some weeks ago. No, it wasn't debunked. The bloomberg guy said that Sony started production of the PSVR2 with a projection of 2 million headsets. There's...

I had my math at around 750k by the end of march with very rough napkin math, so I was not too far off

Where is that clown that lives in every psvr2 thread?

Psvr2 is about to outsell valve index in less than year. And it wasn't available at retail

It was in my country. We don't have option to buy it via PS Direct

Those articles came out when the thing was in limited release via Sony direct only. But no, they couldn’t put 2 and 2 together…..deliberately

Same in Ireland.

Yeah sure. But my thought was towards Sony big markets like UK USA etc

Respectable but I feel like they still need to push it harder. Half-Life Alyx, New Astrobot VR, more VR modes for big games.

Half-Life Alyx would be cool, but I'm guessing Valve doesn't really like Playstation and would never give them a port. New Astrobot I could see though.

If Valve doesn't really like PlayStation why does Sony keep releasing their most valuable games like TLoU, God of War and Spider-man on Steam? Is Sony just Valve's bitch? Valve can do without the money from PlayStation sales for their games but Sony needs Steam? Pathetic.

If it's not a two way deal Sony should stop releasing games on Steam.

This seems really good and it will only get better.

More reason not to do it then.

Well, anyone who was still wearing a mask by the time PSVR2 hit the market was brain dead a long time ago, that should tell you all you need to know about people making up that kind of "news".

This is funny in a way, we have a cycle of fake Sony FUD generated by the rats and now we have an actual situation with xbox as a whole.

 

[thicc_girls_are_teh_best]

Bloomberg Takashi is getting absolutely destroyed in the replies on Twitter. LOVE to see FUD artists get served copious crow. Rub it in; they've earned it

 

[Yurinka]

450K in the first week alone, and 600K till the end of March. Fuck you Mochizuki and Bloomberg, Sony debunked your lies and FUD again.

 

[FatKaz]

Takashi punching air right now
