PS4 was compared to how well it could do compared to PS2 for most of the gen, and only PS4 had a real chance to come close. And after gen TOP3 on home consoles will be PS2, PS4 and PS1. With top 5 being PS2, PS4, PS1, Wii, PS3.

No one was saying that was not the case.  Not sure what this has to do with Japan sales.

 

Nintendo owns Japan

Sony Owns Europe

Nintendo and Sony trade off in the US, with MS not far behind

 

Nothing new, funny how you felt the need to drag sales outside of Japan into the discussion though.

Having a high bar for itself doesn't make the conversation not applicable.

Nintendo haven't dominated USA since SNES. PS1, PS2, X360 and PS4 (with X1 really close) have won USA.

I haven't dragged sales outside Japan as I didn't put any numbers. I just said that the fact that only Sony itself would be able to come close to their top rankers don't make we stop comparing PS4 to its top rankers ever since day 1. So not sure why that would be a problem to compare Switch to Nintendo top rank ranking in Japan.

Wait. You're expecting PS4 to outsell both Wii and PS1?

WW for sure

Is that the top 5 in Japan?
