PS3 sales 30% over target for fiscal year, says Tretton

By Patrick Garratt

Speaking to Reuters, Sony US boss Jack Tretton has claimed PS3 sales are tracking 30 percent higher than predicted for the current financial year, and that as a result, he anticipates sales of the machine to reach a previously announced target of 10 million units by the end of the year, in March 2009.

“We are in good shape for that number worldwide,” he said. “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.”
