According to reports, PlayStation 4 sold a staggering 250k units in its first 48 hours on sale in the UK, making an estimated £87 million in the process.
The reported numbers are from retail sources close to MCV. If proven accurate it means that during the same period of time PS4 shifted 100k more units than Xbox One. The report also says that all three next gen consoles (Wii U is included in that) have a combined install base of 600k users. It also states that both consoles have already outsold the Wii U, despite Nintendo's console having had a year's head start.
