Sony sells 1 million PlayStation 4 consoles in 24 hours Nov 18th 2013, 14:52, by John Ribeiro, IDG News Service Sony said sales of its PlayStation 4 game consoles crossed 1 million units just 24 hours after the device was launched in the U.S. and Canada on Friday, although some users reported some issues with the device. The company hopes to have strong sales as well of the PlayStation 4 in Europe and Latin America where it will be launched on Nov. 29, Sony said Sunday. But competition is coming from Microsoft's launch of the Xbox One on Nov. 22. Sony's advantage is likely to be the lower price of its $399.99 gaming console, which is priced $100 lower than the Xbox. IDC has forecast that PlayStation 4 bundle sales will overtake Microsoft's Xbox One sales in the upcoming holiday season mainly because of its lower price point. The game consoles are also facing competition from gaming on mobile devices and handhelds. The U.S. launch of PlayStation 4, however, had setbacks with some users complaining that their devices blinked blue, and did not get into the power on phase and connect to the TV.
