PS4 is 117M lifetime, PS3 is 87M lifetime, PS2 is 155M lifetime.

40M sits between the N64 lifetime and SNES lifetime sales. Keep in mind, as time progresses, the gaming market is bigger, so direct comparisons cant be done. Its only the 3rd year for the PS5, so it hasnt hit its half way point in its projected timeline.

IDK, the gaming market is bigger sure, but so are the alternatives to PlayStation. Mobile is huge.
