Sony admits they might not reach current shipping targets.
« on: October 19, 2006, 08:12:29 PM »
This is from Bloomburg that Sony said yesterday that their they might not meet their target of 2million PS3 shipped by the end of the year and 6 million through March. This new item is dated today but it was from their play day yesterday.

I am so shocked, and Sony was doing EVERYTHING right up to this point.

Totally expected.  Anyone with two brain cells to rub together could see that 0.5 million consoles at launch plus 1.5 million more in the following six weeks didn't add up.  By the same token, I'll be surprised if they meet the 6 million target in March, although that's at least within the realm of possibility.
That's my opinion, not yours.

I've been saying this since they announced they will only be launching in US and Japan first.
So much has been going wrong for them since day one of the PS3 why should anything go right for them.

Moved what everyone said and linked this thread in Sony getting hit Hard lately to keep things together to look back.

Now that I said that.  I'm not very surprised at all.
