PlayStation 4 sold 1 million units in first day of availability
SCEA President and CEO Jack Tretton predicted 3 million sales by the end of the year, and with the European launch to come, that's looking eminently realistic. Sony is targeting that figure to rise to 5 million by the close of the company's fiscal year in March 2014, by which point the console will have reached Japan.
According to data gatherer NPD, Sony only sold 197,000 PS3 units to the US in its first two weeks of availability, with shortages of supply to blame. Around this time last year, the Wii U sold 425,000 units in the US within its first week at retail, with Nintendo going on to ship 3 million units worldwide by the end of 2012.

Get outta here when a console is made door you it's supposed to be fresh to play out the box.
Not have the customer do some half a** gimmick they come up with.
People like you are the main reason I'm getting a ps4. The xbox community is so immature.
So you are saying that people are more mature just because they have a PS4? Dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Sam- Xbox One will sell over 15 million on launch I reckon.
I think you accidentally added on the "million" part. even then 15 consoles is pushing it. I hear that con artists are buying old VCR'S from charity shops ad scrapping a big XBOX ONE mark on it. To be fair who could tell the difference, same graphics, Same 80s look and has massive shoulder pads, wait what..

AccuAir And out of how many of them had problems?
Well the number they gave was .4% so if they sold a million that's 4000 consoles out of every million sold would have an issue.
