[Dr. Pezus]

$1.3b Profit

Record since 2008.
FY I guess...

Didn't they say it was some billions? Like 4.6b vs. 4.4b

Sony also beat their forecast in terms of unit sale shipments. 17.7 million PS4's were shipped in FY2015 compared to 14.8m prior.

FUN FACT OF THE DAY:

More than 84m Wii U games have been sold after more than 3 and a half years on the market.

PS4 did this in 1 year.

Also, 17.7m PS4s last year and Sony expect more this year. Must have something planned

At this time:

PS3 was: 22.7m*
PS2 was: 33.2m**

Do we have a date for the FY2016 stuff?

Should get more info on what Sony is planning.

Kyle Orland was also responsible for the out-of-scale graph he made sometime last year.

I like that the graph includes negative 5. Really helpful information.

They have it set up as a yearly sales.  Not lifetime.  
The Wii U shipped negative once!  Anything is possible.


But seriously that graph is so pointless.

That's what this is supposed to show? No wonder I didn't get it. That's some of the most senseless mental gymnasitcs ever.

What date did their shipped number end on?
