You’re just proving my point tbh. The console market grew to almost 300% the size. So 1/3 Of 40 Million is 13.3 Million. 13 Million 4th gen would have been slightly more than PC Engine. You call that a success?!

Your video game knowledge is also severely lacking the PC Engine sold only 5.8 million units.  So 13.3 million units is a lot more then slightly more then the PC Engine.  Also the PC Engine was actually a success in Japan since it sold 3.9 million units there it just flopped in the west.

It seems that wikipedia page isn't entirely accurate or hasn't been updated.
It lists PC Engine at 10 million here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth_generation_of_video_game_consoles#Worldwide_sales_standings

Here it also seems to be above 10 million world wide.

Other sources place it at 10 million here:
