WiiU - Good supply, fair price

Wii - Limited supply, affordable

PS3 - Good supply, $600)

X360 - Limited supply, expensive

These are factors that need to be looked at as well before considering the launch a success a failure or a success.

 

That is right, but it was the decision of Sony to launch at $600 and supply-constraints can also be avoided by producing a lot in before. That are all factors that play into the sales, but the sales in the end are the deciding factor if a launch was good or bad. If you apply your logic, you could say: Wii had no HD, that lowered sales, and PS3 had a Blu-Ray, without that extra value it would have sold even less.

You obviously don't understand, I'm saying price and supply are stuff we need to factor in when considering if a launch is successful or not.
This isn't the place to discuss whose fault it was to launch the PS3 at $600 or what features these consoles had....

What do you mean my logic? You're the one thats trying to make excuses for why some console sold what they sold, I'm not.

Another factor that we shoud look at is  what time of year these consoles launch.
