Sony sells 3.5M PS4+PS3 as it posts Q1 profits!
Quote:
Sony just disclosed its financial results for the fiscal quarter between April 1st and June 30th 2014, and there are smiles all around.
During those three months Sony Computer Entertainment sold 3.5 million between PS4, PS3 and some leftover PS2 combined, and 0.75 million between PS Vita and PSP combined, while contributing to generate an operating income of of 43 million dollars within the Games and Network Services segment.
Software sales for all the company’s consoles summed up to 390 million and the division is back to being profitable after the loss posted in the last quarter of fiscal year 2013.
Sales increased 95.7% year-on-year (an 86% increase on a constant currency basis) to 257.5 billion yen (2,550 million U.S. dollars). This increase was primarily due to the contribution from sales of PS4 hardware which was launched in November 2013, as well as a significant increase in network services revenues accompanying the launch of the PS4. Sales to external customers increased 101% year-on-year.
Operating income of 4.3 billion yen (43 million U.S. dollars) was recorded, compared to an operating loss of 16.4 billion yen in the same quarter of the previous fiscal year. This significant improvement was primarily due to the above-mentioned increase in sales, partially offset by a decrease in PlayStation®3 (“PS3”) software sales.
Sony as a whole reported a an opeating revenue of 17,920 million dollars and an operating profit of 691 million dollars. Then net income was 265 million dollars, with the company finally jumping back in the black, posting actual profits. The performance of the PS4 and the Games and Network Services as a whole is marked as the primary cause behind the upturn.

Not really no.
It has slowed down a bit, but it just went from slaying massively to slaying moderately.

Why are people buying the more expensive console that has ZERO games? How baffling!

Sis. YOU have posted VGChartz receipts before. I remember a couple of your threads getting closed.
(I know because I reported them  )
Either way 810k is solid and you can seethe.

WELP at your excuses sis.
NPD changed my life. Did it do the same for Wii U and Nintendo?
810K+510K is a flop when it was only shipped. I see you're still grieving sis. I know yall at denial then anger will follow, bargaining, depression and acceptance. Praying for your fast recovery, sis...

Both 3DS and Wii-U have better games than their Sony counterparts, so I promise you... I feel rather happy

Nintendo fans, spread this quote. It is so wise and so true.
"I hate Nintendo Fanboys. Not because they're spewing misinformation about technology but because they're so ****ing defensive all the time. They're the only people who have absolutely no right and no reason to be defensive. Nintendo pretty much invented video gaming and the best games of all time are exclusive to Nintendo. They shouldn't care crap about what anyone says about their console.
The WiiU has bad sales? Mario, you ****ers!
The WiiU is not as strong as the other consoles? Zelda, you **** lickers!
Nintendo is doomed? Suck on Bayonetta 2!
Those are responses! You're not in a penis measuring contest. You are the Judge! So stop trying to defend every negative thing that happens to Nintendo. You don't hav to prove anything, MS and Sony have to."

Let's make one thing clear, VGChartz isn't that inaccurate and generally replicates the real sales trends. It may be a week to 10 days off, but it still delivers fair receipts in an accessible platform. It does not deserve the shade it gets,
fff nevermind, I Googled some random titles and compared official receipts against VGC, I'm insulted I ever took them seriously. Nobody use this source anymore please

 @ the PS2 still getting sales.
The poor Vita, thank God I didn't invest in one of those and I went for the 3DS. 
I'll be getting my PS4 once the price drops, and the re-design is out.
I still have so many PS3 games to play and beat.
