When the PS3 launched they had everything against them and still managed to turn it around, now with the PS4 they have everything going for them there is almost no way for them not to do good this gen.

Even if PS4 is the fastest selling console in history, it doesn't make sense to ingore how financially unsuccessful the PS3 was and pretend it was a huge financial success because it sold 80 million. I can understand why the "journalist" do it though. Since It's mostly used in negative Nintendo articles, Nintendo fanboys will keep going back to the website to see if they put up more negative Nintendo articles. It's sort of like what YouTube trolls do to get views.


The only people who care about how "financially successful" a console is are stock holders and excuse makers. Everyone else cares about total units sold. Right or wrong, it's how this whole thing works.

What do you see on the front page of vgchartz? A graph showing which is making the most revenue? Or a graph showing which consoles sold the most units?

They have a graph showing hardware sales because It's a sales website.


....and because that's what people actually CARE about.


not only people, but game devs and publishers as they are the ones putting games on systems and care about how much consoles are actually out their and not how much money they make


Its relevant when the parent company goes belly up and can no longer support the platform, which is the exact direction Sony is headed.

with the best selling launch console of all time? LMAO tell you what when they go belly up then you can call me. Until then, you are nothing but a Sony hater.
