The PlayStation 4 launched in North America on November 15th. Since then, it’s gone on to launch in 32 countries around the world.

Sony announced this morning that the PlayStation 4 has just beaten 2,100,00 consoles sold globally. That’s not shipped to stores, that’s actually sold to buyers at retail.

According to MCV's retail sources, the PlayStation 4 sold 250k units in its first 48 hours on sale. This means sales total somewhere in the region of £87 million.

Sony's PlayStation 4 has become the fastest-selling console in UK history, according to official sales from Chart-Track.

The PS4 broke the record by Sony's PlayStation Portable, which sold 185,000 when it came out in 2005. The PS4 not only surpassed sales of Xbox One, which came out on November 22nd, but also PlayStation 3.

For comparison, the Xbox One sold approximately 150,000 units in the first 48 hours. The PlayStation 3 sold 165,000 units over a similar amount of time.

According to Sony's numbers, PS4 sales have now doubled since its first day of availability in North America, boosted by launches across Europe, Australasia, and Latin America last week. The console looks on target to meet SCE America President and CEO Jack Tretton's prediction of 3 million sales by the end of the year.

Sony is aiming for 5 million sales by the end of March 2014, boosted again by the console's launch in Japan on February 22.

But, WII U does have good games. I own a PS3, PS4 and WII U and I am well covered with gaming over Christmas.
