How can this be viewed as positive news....?

Those are pretty poor numbers considering they include PSV's already out there for Japan etc.

Am I missing something?

A new, very expensive, system in competition with PSP, DS, and 3DS. Poor numbers indeed.

Er, I'm comparing the numbers with the launch numbers of those respective systems....

They are poor.... you can argue they are OK at best.  

I could go on and on about how this is better than most expected and is doing really well considering the current market, but in the end, all that matters (at least in this specific situation where we aren't talking about 360 vs wii), is that not selling as much as something else is poor.
