Sony CEO Jack Tretton is quite ecstatic with the way their Cell powered beast is selling this year. Speaking in an interview with Reuters, Tretton reveals that the PS3 is actually selling faster than they previously expected it would.
They projected that the PS3 would be able to sell 10 million units by March of next year. (Just so you know, March of next year = end of fiscal year 2008).
Tretton didn’t reveal the specific figure of how many PS3 units they’ve already sold to date – much less which firm’s sales data he’s keeping track of – however, he seems confident that they’ll hit their 10-million mark by March ’09, no matter what happens.
We are in good shape for that number worldwide. We are tracking at 100 percent up over last year … about 30 percent ahead of where we should be. So sales could slow down and we will still hit our number.
