If history has shown us anything about console sales, it's that each new gen is for the most part a completely fresh start - most people don't really think too much about which console they owned before when buying the next. Hence the PS1 beat the N64, the Wii (and in quite a few regards the 360) beat the PS3, and the PS4 and XBO again beat the Wii U, while the Switch is selling superbly. This means that Sony can absolutely not afford to fuck up this laucnh (especially as consoles are getting more ecosystem based. People haven't cared too much about which console they owned so far, but I suspect that will be changing with bigger digital libraries, achievements, stuff that makes you "invested" in the ecosystem, and that makes next gen crucial for Sony).

Luckily, this "rumour" seems to be a load of bollocks.

Globally in USA you mean right?

Because Globally even with all the fuckups PS3 still outsold X360. and Won all other gens.

Maybe you missed the "in quite a few regards". I wasn't referring to absolute sales (though there is substantial evidence to suggest the PS3 is overtracked on VGC).
