I'm not even sure what this is implying , but alright
That the other consoles are worse. The idea that 21 mil isn't a number to be happy about is doomsday energy, and this one is just as clear cut: PlayStation is the strongest videogame platform in the UK - that means this iteration, the brand as a whole, and vs other consoles, handhelds, and PC.

Which has nothing to do with my comment that monthly sales remain mediocre and the 21 million sales was still a missed target because of mostly weak European / UK sales as well. I don't recall saying then PS5 is failure in this thread, so I really don't care for y'all opinions on the matter in regards to my comment. No one is stopping you guys from living in utopia where everything is perfectly fine with PS5

Each month we get a list from npd, EU, UK. And playstation is number one.

Offcourse we should still demand the best, but Sony too doomed because they ended xbox. Is getting boring.

Xbox now has the incentive for the ps5 to sell well, look at those COD sales. All those xbox hype man are actually saying: xbox sales are gone, pc is down but its selling bonkers on playstation.

How can we be negative if even the xbox hype man are praising the playstation platform?

Do you have monthly UK numbers by any chance? VGchartz isn't working atm.

Based on total sales, the average PS4 monthly sales are around 65k.

So not much different from what the PS5 is selling currently.

I don’t think we have sales month by month but…

PS5 recently reached 4 million after 192 weeks.
PS4 did the same 4 million in 161 weeks.

The average per month are clearly way higher for PS4… PS5 is around 31 weeks behind PS4 in UK… that means around 7 months behind.

BTW you can make the average per month worth these numbers:

PS5: ~89k
PS4: -105k

Or per week:

PS5: 20.8k
PS4: 24.8k

PS5 is selling worst than any PlayStation console in UK except PS3.

You guys are going deep here but UK together with the rest of Europe is the only reason PS5 is behind PS4 worldwide by 2.3m.

PS5 is ahead in US, Asia and until recently in Japan.

Europe sales should be around 5 million behind to make that math work.

IMO it is doing very poorly for a PlayStation console in Europe including UK.
Europe used to be the strongest region for PlayStation.

Careful being honest about the state of PS5 in that region will upset a few here who wanna deny reality.

They'll soon start denying the Japanese sales come next year when it really starts trailing the PS4.
