PlayStation 4 Mass Production Is Happening

Neogaf user spotted leaked pictures on Chinese board.
The leaker also mentioned that his boss said they are shipping out over one million consoles from their factory alone, presumably for launch.

[Prcko]

It's happening

[THamm]

So far production looks like more PS4's being produced in these pics than XboxOne(s) in the Major Nielson pic
http://www.geek.com/wp-cont...

[gaffyh]

Major Nelson am cry.

[IcicleTrepan]

which means nothing really.

[Thisisjuju]

No dude.. comparing those pics proves nothing.

EDIT: Major nelson posted that picture simply to show fans that the Xbone is in full production.

Whether he took the picture of a single console, a room full or an entire warehouse it doesn't matter.

Comparing those pictures is taking it completely out of context. I assure you there are warehouses right now full to the brim of Xbones ready for launch as it is in full production.

Whichever company is producing more is a complete unknown at this point.

[HeyImBen11]

of course Sony produces more consoles, they have a lot more facturies because they are a hardwarecompany, not like microsoft.

[Thisisjuju]

@ HeyImBen11

Here are the companies that are producing the xbox one parts. With AMD obviously producing the chip-sets.

Asia Optical – sensing lenses
Delat Electronics – power supply
Foxconn Electronics – assembly
Foxlink – connectors
Jentech Precision Industrial – cooling modules
Lite-On Technology – optical disc drive
Newmax – sensing lenses

All of the parts are pretty much created and assembled by third parties. Who owns the most factories is a moot point.

Once again I must assert logic... as with the completely unnecessary Xbox One pictures, this is ridiculous. No one really thinks that these things aren't coming do they? Sony has presold over a million of these things. Of course its their intentions to fulfill every order and then some.

But if you do want to get crazy for a moment you can zoom into the crates. Notice that they are labled by package number. The most visible one looks like P2113. The one next to it looks like P2118. Each wrapped pallet looks like it contains 30 big boxes which probably contain 8 consoles a piece.

Therefore I submit that if P2113 is the latest package, than this fatory has produced over 500,000 PS4s

My PS4 is somewhere in this shot.

[abzdine]

i could see mine over there on the right!

[CrossingEden]

There is absolutely no proof that more ps4s are in production than xbox1s. Comparing the two pics and saying otherwise is completely nonsensical and delusional. Do you guys need to compare EVERYTHING?

[Triella]

@Eonjay

The leaker of this pictures was told by his boss that they are shipping one million consoles for launch from this factory alone. And they are many more assembly lines in Baidu.

[FamilyGuy]

No doubt, here we see a warehouse full of pallets of PS4s wrapped for shipping and ready for launch. One million in this factory alone and this isn't the only factory...

Sony came prepared big time this gen and seeing this just follows in line with all the other great steps they've been making in regards to everything associated with the PS4.

This holiday season is shaping up to be one of, if not the most memorable in history for a gaming fan.

[vigilante_man]

Its finally happened.

Yes folks - we are comparing pictures of cardboard boxes!!

[Automatic79]

Not a good comparison.

[ovnipc]

Xbox its just a picture of a container being loaded, the PS its a pic of a warehouse, Stop trolling loser!

[MWong]

I'll take 3, since you have so many please!!

[The_Con-Sept]

Amazon be like: We might not have enough!

Bestbuy be like: Reserves are running short!

Wal-Mart be like: please reserve one here. Pretty please!? :(

Target be like: Stop asking us if we have any more reserves! We sold out back in march....

Gamestop be like: would you like to pre order halo 5 with your PS4 reserve?

Microsoft be like: we just overclocked the CPU again! Gotta reconfigure the units!

Sony be like: 4 million PS4's in 4 days. Mwahahahahaahahaha!

Tomorrow kaz be like: 11.22.13? Bring it!

[Ritsujun]

Mehjurr Pelsuhn's laughable pic got pwned.

[kewlkat007]

Only on here kids fight of pictures of boxes..My company has more boxed than yours..

[ShwankyShpanky]

To be fair... those pics really don't prove anything.

The first pic is just printed packaging. Not even folded and prepped for product. Those could have been printed months ago when the product exterior design was finalized.

In the second pic, the labels aren't legible. They could be pallets of anything.

I won't say that these pics are "faked" in any way, at the same time there's nothing inherent to them to prove they are what they claim to be. The originating thread appears legit I guess... at least from what Google Translate produces.

I've seen nothing that indicates Sony is behind schedule on production, and I believe them to have a better manufacturing supply chain than MS, but to me these pics are little more than a curiosity.

Gotta love Google translate:
"Re @ permissions will not compromise: this reply I laughed urine"
http://translate.google.com...

[Gorilla_Killa_X]

@negative. I agreed with you cause that was funny. I don't know if it was meant to be or not but it was.

[pyramidshead]

over 1mil from just ONE of the factories that are making them. Holy CHRIST O_O.

[Thisisjuju]

Looks like they have learnt from the PS3 selling out at launch. They seem much better poised to meet demand this time around.

[ABeastNamedTariq]

I know! Good gravy!

[Irishguy95]

Yeah, thousands of Chinese working for scraps of food on our Ps4s

[Gimmemorebubblez]

Skill level: Asian

[BISHOP-BRASIL]

Yup, 1 million from this factory alone. If there were ever a bad day to be a scalpers, this is it.

[imdaboss1]

Sony is smart there other warehouse that is producing PS4..The xbone is rushed and is barely in production like what 2 days ago? reason why they are not releasing their console world wide..xbone is going to be more defective then the 360 ..quote for the truth guys

[Lboogieskells]

That's a given, you need to patch it day one or you can't play it without an internet connection.

I'm willing to bet yours is the one to rule them all! Lol.

It's always good to see plans coming to fruition! And my plan is get me one of those black, sleek, and sexy PS4's! Perhaps I'll send my wife on a 14 day cruise or something! Anyone know a good travel agent?

[Ashunderfire86]

Wish Ron Paul for President was happening lol!!!

# Prcko link

Great news for PS4 copies!!!

[PSjesus]

He is 78 yo

[dantesparda]

Careful what you wish for

[Ashunderfire86]

So Ronald Reagan was just as old, like most everyone of these presidents in history.

[FamilyGuy]

*Drools*

I can't believe a stack of unfolded cardboard boxes could get me so excited. Seeing the pallets of console ready to ship is also pretty thrilling.
We're in the home stretch now.

[WarThunder]

"The leaker also mentioned that his boss said they are shipping out over one million consoles from their factory alone, presumably for launch. And they are not the only factory that's producing ps4s."

[Volkama]

I'm going to steal all of them. Movies will be made to tell the story of the heist.

When time has healed the wounds of everyone that missed their pre-order my hidden stash of ps4s will feature in the story of Uncharted 19.

[Gamer1982]

Well DUH! If they wasn't this far in production by now there would be no end of November launch date..

[s8anicslayer]

Lolz @Majors one pallet..XD

[ZHZ90]

Sounds great to me.

I NEED ONE RIGHT NOW!
PS4TW!

[thexmanone]

And the PS4 too win what?

[ZHZ90]

@thexmanone, everything. Just deal with it. :)

PlayStation 4 Mass Destruction Is Happening..

Adopt a ps4 today..

[TheXgamerLive]

Some of the ignorant comments on this post proves one thing, some gamers on here are uneducated about what they speak.

[Mr-Dude]

Why are we comparing these pictures?
Is it about the graphics and polygons? I mean they are pretty much photorealistic so... truly next-gen!

[T2]

Serious question - what do people think are minimum and maximims Sony could sell by year one ?

[FamilyGuy]

If demand were high enough to validate them keeping all production factories open for a full year I'd say 14 million. It's unlikely that would happen though, the big sales burst always happen around november-december.

I see them doing 10-12 million though, easily.

[1OddWorld]

Sony has won the hearts and minds this time around, but the only true way to capitalize on this is to have an over abundance of stock in stores. You want to saturate the market so bad that the units sit side by side on the shelves being compared for the people who didn't pre-order. First thing people will compare is price. People want to play next gen games at a price they can afford and $399 looks better than $499.

[ovnipc]

stupid drones that want this paper weight. Xbox One and X 360 all I need after PS1 sony was done for me,
N64>PS1-- Golden Eye better game than any PS game
Xbox Original > PS2--- Halo better than any PS2 game.
Xbox 360>PS3--- 95% of games look better better fps and all games.
Xbox One> Ps4--- Exclusives, Titanfall, DR3, Forza, Ki look better and funner than any PS crap game "Knack" hahahahaha yea spend $400 to play that shit made by the guy who designed it. Fuk PS!

[iceman06]

You ARE the weakest link...Good Bye!!!

[T2]

Lol dumbest comment in n4g history , congrats. Ps2 literally had the greatest library of all time ... And u put one generic shooter above all that

[twinspectre]

hahahahahah spend 500$ to play lococicle XD FAIL TRY AGAIN
KNACK>TITANFALL is a FACT
Knack is made by a Veteran ,the man behind Spyro , Crash Bandicoot and Jack and Dexter , and Yeah i will get Knack Day 1 what's your problem ????
IN YOUR FACE i SAY , in your FACE

[Projekt]

Well, if it's 'funner', then who am I to argue. Didn't your mother warn you of the dangers of going full-retard?

[JustPlay4]

What is with xbox fans an fps's is that all you guys/girls play, don't get me wrong I love shooters but still there other genres out there

1. N64 was good but not better then ps1(your opinion)

2. Original xbox sucks (my opinion) and halo 1 and 2 where on PC as well

3. Those are third party games, that is also just your opinion

4. Again just your opinion not a fact, also is funner even a real word

5. Knack look fine for what it is and I rather pay 400 for a good console with good games then 500 when it could 400 if they would just loses the kinect (my opinion)

[razrye]

You really are a moron @novnipc

That's only from one factory so far with over a million getting ready to ship. I imagine they have another 2 or 3 more with millions more.

[AceBlazer13]

I can't wait for ps4 #4001432C51 a.k.a mine

[MrSwankSinatra]

Lmaoooo

[maximus1985]

lol oh the one on the far left

[GreenRanger]

Make a green one for me, Sony.

[FamilyGuy]

A dark, forest green colored PS4 would look really nice. I hope they come out with some sexy colors soon.

[shutUpAndTakeMyMoney]

Cant wait to see modded ps4's I want to get into modding controllers. Them buttons need to light up blue.

[wenaldy]

One of them will be mine.

Shut up and Marry me already ;)

[RBlue_Desire]

Just launch in India at same time as UK....

[Buzz7S]

Oh yeah, definitely "leaked". Funny how the images just happened to "leak" during the same week where an Xbox representative posted images of the first batch of Xbox One consoles off the production line.

[mkis007]

What? You're implying that Sony leaked them?? dang that would be sly move.

[MasterCornholio]

And major Nelson posted those pictures to dispelled the rumors that the console isn't even in production yet.

Everything happens for a reason.

Motorola RAZR i

[Tooly]

Doesn't Really matter if it leaked or Not both console are in production well in this case the ps4 sexy ass is in mass production.

[FamilyGuy]

-_- what you're saying is ridiculous, if Sony wanted to 1up that image/twitter post Yosh would be front in line to just do it on his twitter. It's not like anyone would complain about it. This is a legitimate leaked photo as I'm sure taking pictures isn't allowed in that factory/warehouse.

Just let people be excited.

[stuna1]

@Buzz7S

How about you "BUZZ" off! Don't you have something better to do? Like go and see if your dgpu and 15 co processors are done marinating?

[Buzz7S]

>don't you have something better to do

Says the guy who sits on N4G all day and comments on rumours as if they are facts.

You're the type of gamer who bitched and moaned about paying for Xbox LIVE and vowing to never pay a fee to play a game online, but you'll pay for PS Plus and talk about it as if it is the greatest idea in the industry.

[stuna1]

Yeah you're probably right, since at least with PS+ I'll stand to gain value for what it is I'm paying for! But for Live where is the value? Since everything is behind a paywall anyway.
At least I don't need PS+ to get basic functionality out of my console, can you say the same for yours? Especially since we know your console of choice by your comment.

As far as commenting on rumors, I don't quite understand the question, considering the fact that....that's exactly what you're doing. So before asking that question, maybe you should ask yourselves first.

[Mr-Dude]

I think i just saw mine, there in the third row. Left box, with clearly my name written all over it!

[WeAreLegion]

Your name is PlayStation 4?

(Now that I think about it...I would name my son that. Or daughter.)

[stuff]

Name your daughter PlayStation??? I hope you have lots of shotgun ammo.

[WeAreLegion]

Haha. Good point.

[yellowgerbil]

ps4 is going to be amazing. Most anticipated for a launch since the 9/9/99 ads

[twinspectre]

FUCK YEAAAAAAAH

[twinspectre]

One of them will be mine :)

[Xsilver]

PS4 FTW

[shivvy24]

[strigoi814]

Wait is killing me.....

[TheGreatGamer]

1 million from just ONE of their factories! PS4 is going to blow up and xbone is going to be left in the dark aha

[CocoWolfie]

yeah it begins! ^-^ im hoping to see a lot in stock on the day of release otherwise itll be not so good for people who havent pre-ordered but still.. im hoping for chaos :p

[ABeastNamedTariq]

Natalie....you're almost home! Just a two more months!

(1mil from ONE factory. 0_0)

[WeAreLegion]

[ABeastNamedTariq]

that was supreme.

the most epic kaz gif ever

[KingofGambling]

Is Sony in the gaming business or the money business? Neither, they're in the Empire Business.

[fpshooter2]

Man what a wonderful sight to see.

[bub16]

I NEED ONE NOWWWWWWWWWWWWW

[Deceiver_Of_The_Gods]

Εven if you had one , you wouldnt have any games to play , and cause servers arent live yet you wouldnt have access to psn;) it would be useless at this period

[bub16]

i would keep turning it on and off until a game comes out

[Deceiver_Of_The_Gods]

Haha good idea;p

[sAVAge_bEaST]

Made in China, 1million, Made in Japan, 1million,
Launch, 2million.
Ps4:2 xboxone:1 -out the gate.

[Gimmemorebubblez]

Maybe 16 million by the end of Q1 2014 is possible.

[GraveLord]

lol that's way too much dude...

[fattyuk]

why is that too much??

[Odin666]

Poor Xbone, only starting full production. Must be the low preorders.

PS4 is about to dominate the world!

[JuniorCE]

Finally... Greatness is coming!

[Iltapalanyymi]

GET HYPE PEOPLE!!! hope i get my own PS4 like a few days earlier! :3 would be noice.

[Pancit_Canton]

Sony must be using 3D printer or cloning device to mass produce the PS4. lol Awesome!!

[ThyMagicSword]

Mass-production is not always a good thing, let the games do the talk.

[Jamaicangmr]

When launching a console it is a great thing. It says that they will meet demand alot better than they did with PS2 and PS3

[cell989]

One of those could be my PS4

[Jamaicangmr]

MS: Shows 1st pallet ready. Your move Sony lol!
Sony: Shows a warehouse full of pallets ready. *Straight face*
MS: Ummm
Sony: Game, Set, Match.

LMFAO!!!

[_FantasmA_]

Yeah but here we actually see Sony box art. On the Nelson picture, it could have bee anything in those boxes.

[Cobonline]

Its so beautiful i have an erection

[Godmars290]

Would hope so...

[jay2]

Sony, don't be dumb, bring the EU release forward to really hurt MS.

[ForgivenZombie]

Exciting, isn't it (Failed evil laugh comes out as girlish giggle)

[bigboss1990]

Ps2 days all over again brilliant :P Xbox can burn for trying to destroy the gaming industry and watch us through there stupid camera and over priced rubbish ) lol

[Regis]

All right guys I went to the site they where talking about the warehouse it is not only PS4s, but Vitas and PS3s!!!

[MusashiBlack]

Greatness awaits!!!! I hope that Sony is ready because we are going to crash their servers.

[BlaqMagiq24]

That my friends is gold Sony is producing.

[AbortMission]

I predict 3-5 million units will be sold of the PS4 by the end of the launch period with factors such as scarcity, consumer demand, price and available games being involved.

Ouch to the Wii u Lol. I may be wrong but I think this is somehwhat accurate

[Majin-vegeta]

OMG GUYS I see mine it's number #9000.It my PS4 and I want it now!!!!

http://youtu.be/tw3SYzTOL04

[ZBlacktt]

Having played on a PS4 and used a Dual Shock 4. Then coming home to the PS3 was kind of hard, lol. It's like test driving a Lambo and driving home in a Honda. I mean I was playing Killzone Shadow Fall, AC4 BF, Knack, Drive Club, etc.

Thats So Sad I Would be cryinq #ZBlackttPS4

[LetoAtreides82]

5.9 million seconds left for the PS4 launch !!

[lllll-lllll]

And now you'll make a website with that countdown on it ;-)

[lllll-lllll]

http://ps4.starthemel.nl/ (countdown)

[Sikct9a]

I see my box!

[Thomaticus]

Beautiful!

[gamingisnotacrime]

hope there is good quality control

[_FantasmA_]

Nelson posted a picture of some boxes. For all we know they could have been a collection of all RROD xboxes being transported or it could have been any other product, maybe it was cases of Mountain Dew?

[tawak]

i wonder how many returns will the ps4 and xbox one will get. most people just pre-order because of the hype.

[cyclindk]

Wish they would start shipping them out as soon as they come off the assembly line, let us start testing the servers and junk before everyone has one SONY do it!

Mail em out hot out of the oven!

Why wait for some random day to release all at once?

[xBraiNshOcK]

It be a sad day if a meteor would to land right there.

[Cuders]

Please mass produce i didnt get a chance to pre-order i have been so busy with school and work. But i will get a big break in november i really want a ps4.

[thexmanone]

If that's all they got then they are in trouble.

PS4TL

[PS4isKing_82]

They have like 3 or 4 factories I believe making them so that would mean around 4mil ps4s sold at launch. I think that will easily outsell wiiu's launch and the number of units Microsoft will have ready of the one.

[DivineAssault]

im gtn so pumped for PS4.. I wasnt all that excited about the remote play with vita but now that im reading more into it, its a very awesome addition (if u have one).. PS4 will be here in roughly 2 months.. I cant wait to open it up & play around with all the settings & of course the games!

[Schizo_Gamer]

I'm really excited about the PS4 and all the great games/experiences/services that it will bring. Glad they have the upper hand now as well.

[spoonard]

The comparison between the PS4 warehouse with seemingly MANY pallets of PS4's ready for shipping vs the pic of what Major Nelson referred to as "the first pallet of Xbox One's ready for shipping" to me means that the PS4 has been in production longer or Sony has a means of manufacturing MORE PS4's than Microsoft does Xbox Ones. It seems Sony's confidence when they said they would have no troubles shipping out large numbers of PS4's wasn't unfounded.

[Donnywho]

GTA5 is happening. Tell the next generation to chill out. We see it. heh heh

[zeeman]

Jeepers I sometimes wonder about this place and the creatures that dwell here.
As passionate supporter as I am about of the SONY brand the comments of late are ridiculous, embarrasing and is a poor indication of the general intelligence of gamers.

[tiremfej]

It's nice to know that the "Kids Screaming Into the Microphones on Xbox Live" issue has been solved. Just have your competitor release a cheaper console...they will flock to it in droves.

[Max-Zorin]

I'm excited but I will not be going to the midnight launch event. Over here in the U.S. people don't know how to behave themselves at such events.

[Mister_G]

I feel the greatness building up :D

[fsfsxii]

Wasn't forum posts restricted on N4G??
