That's madness. And they'll sell them all almost immediately too.

While you got the FIFA, CoD, and GoW bundles which will be flying off the shelves especially here in Europe, and the US this year, next financial year you have Final Fantasy 16 and Spiderman.

It's gonna lead to monstrous record-breaking numbers.

I doubt that info is reliable… let’s wait Sony FY22 Q4.

Just remember that Sony never shipped that amount of consoles in a year.

Sony has its fingers in all the pies, even you, my chirpy little friend will be assimilated in its grand scheme of quality gaming.

So March 2022 - March 2023 they plan to produce and sell 30 million PS5s?
Isn't that like the most by any console ever?

FY2023 = April 2023 to March 2024.
I think Switch come close... around 28 million in a year.... the 30 million seems like made up.

not realistic, like at all. what they making now? 12M, and suddenly 3x? it is not happening. nor they can produce nor sell so many.

I believe they are on track to 18.5 million this FY.
I believe it will be better in FY2023 around 22-25m (that is what PS consoles peaked in the past) but 30m is really fallacy imo until Sony confirms it as forecast at end of FY.

18.5M this year. They are also just really hitting good production numbers around August.

If they get a slim out, I think it is doable. It is ambitious though.

If they even got 25 million plus out in a single year it would be a great achievement though.

They can sell even more than that.

The issue is everything else... chip production, parts supply, manufacture, distribution, etc etc etc.
Sony doesn't have a distribution chain for 30 million consoles.... they can increase it temporary to reach 30 million next year? Yes they can... but normally you do that when you are sure you will at least hit that target for some years.

Inappropriate behavior
Source: Your ass.
Say the guy that send weird private messages with cursing works because can't accept not everybody has his weird opinions lol
I will take my ass as source over you.

But in respect of not being fair and taking your comment as serious… do you realize Sony never crossed 25 million shipments for consoles even with the utmost effort? It is not a easy task to ship that much consoles and yes they need to increase man power in all front to that including distribution.

Consoles won’t fly by themselves to consumer hands or use storks.

PS. Back to original post… the mod DarkVader that tried to moderate is the guy that send the insults in private.
