Sony is predicting a great March for the PS3. Even with the threat of tight inventory, the company still expects to reach the 13 million units sold worldwide milestone by the end of the month.

 

"There continues to be incredible demand for PlayStation 3, but tight inventory is definitely having an impact on recent sales numbers," said SCE corporate communications senior director Patrick Seybold in an interview with Gamasutra.

 

"That said, we’re still tracking to sell 13 million PS3s worldwide by the end of March, which marks a 30 percent increase over last fiscal year."

 

Last month saw PS3 unit sales up 30 percent year over year. Seybold expects the PlayStation Move reveal and next week's PS3-exclusive God of War III to further drive sales higher. not just for this month, but for the whole of 2010.

 

"The platform is showing no signs of slowing down," he said. "Needless to say, 2010 will be one of our best years ever for PS3 and we expect continued momentum for PSP and PS2."

It looks like both MS and Sony think 2010 will be their year. But then isn't that the case every year?

sadly nintendo will probably say the same, with the 2nd set of Mario/Zelda/Metroid set to release this year, and titles coming for the Wii motion plus

Either way, keep it up Sony

Wait, 13 million PS3s sold in total? I'm confused, I thought there was like 25 million or so PS3s sold already..

I guess you mean that there's 25 million PSN accounts. That's for the PS3 + PSP I guess.. interesting.

They are more than likely referring to 13 million for their fiscal year. Fiscal year is different for every company. For example Sony's fiscal year can run from March to March (which is usually the case for many companies.)

They're talking about the past fiscal year. Sony's fiscal year ends at the end of March, so they are talking about 13 million sold between April 1st 2009 through March 31st 2010. Note the bit about "a 30% increase from last fiscal year," which would be April 1st 2008 through March 31st 2009.
