Healthy growth for Switch as its third year gets started, everything else either showing its age or showing its irrelevance.
We'll probably have to wait for PS5/Scarlet for the overall market to show YOY growth.
At this rate, PS4 will be almost 1.7M behind last year at the end of the June and thus the first half of the year. I don't think a 50$ pricecut will be enough to turn it around, just slow the trend a bit, and not enough to keep that 16M target.
A cut to 199$ could do it - but I doubt Sony will cut the price by 100$ when they were milking that 300$ pricetag for so long now. So I rather expect 249$ and 149$ (+1 free game probably) at Black Friday.
That was in conjunction of the superslim PS3, which was much cheaper to produce. But I don't see no cut-down Superslim coming out. A superslim is possible with a die shrink, but unlike with the PS3 there just really ain't anything they could cut out to make it even cheaper to produce.
