Sony Playstation4
PlayStation 4 sales exceed 1 million in just 24 hours
Sony’s newest console, which launched Friday in the U.S. and Canada, racked up more than one million sales on its first day of availability, making PS4 the fastest-selling PlayStation console to date.
“PS4 was designed with an unwavering commitment to gamers, and we are thrilled that consumer reaction has been so phenomenal,” said Andrew House, the president and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment, in a statement. “Sales remain very strong in North America, and we expect continued enthusiasm as we launch the PlayStation 4 in Europe and Latin America on Nov. 29.”
“We are closely monitoring for additional reports, but we think these are isolated incidents and are on track for a great launch,” the Sony rep told GamesBeat.
Sony must be pleased with PS4′s strong debut weekend. The PS4 looks set to quickly overtake Nintendo’s ailing Wii U console, which has only managed to sell 3.91 million consoles globally after about a year of availability. The PS4′s chief competitor, Microsoft’s Xbox One, is set to launch on Nov. 22 in 13 Different markets, including the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Australia, and Brazil.
Thanks to its user replaceable hard drive and easy to access internals, iFixit has bestowed upon the PlayStation 4 a surprisingly high repairability score of 8 out of 10.
