Playstation 4 sold 1 million units in first day

PlayStation 4 sales reached the 1 million mark within the console's first 24 hours at retail, Sony announced this morning. The PS4 launched in North America on November 15, so that figure is restricted to the US & Canada; the console comes to Europe on November 29, and Japan on February 22, 2014.

SCEA President and CEO Jack Tretton is predicting 3 million sales by the end of the year, and with the European launch to come, that's looking increasingly realistic. Sony targets 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.

The Xbox One Tour

This past week has been surreal! Of course you guys are aware that the next generation of consoles is upon us (11-15-13 for PS4 and 11-22-13 for XB1) so there has been many press events and meet and greets to get everyone excited. So the Xbox team created a tour that would visit 75 different cities throughout the world. You'd have a chance to play the new console and games before anyone else! I was fortunate enough to attend the Xbox One tour at their stop on November 7th in Scottsdale, Arizona.
