1.  "The Last of Us" will sell 3 to 5 Million copies, so saying there's no audience for that type of game isn't correct.

2.  No, Microsoft and Sony share many things in common that separates them from Wii.  Primarily their third party game libraries.  The types of games on PS3 and 360 proved to be far more popular to the types of games on Wii this gen and that's why Wii could never get 50% marketshare.   If there had only been one HD console it would have had over 50% of the marketshare.


1. Assumptions

2. Fact is, there has always been a negative correlation with power and sales. If the PS4 is the most powerful console, it'll be the most expensive, and it'll probably sell the least (again). 

Two consoles combined may have sold a lot, but Sony needs to focus on what their single console will do. Looking at history, their console has done poorly as a result of power.

Also the PS4 won't be coming off of a generation leader like the PS3 did. So there's a lot less room for error. 

And You ignored the fact that CoD is the best selling HD game. Gamers care about a moderate level of graphics, but not much.

3. You ignored my Wii U statement.


Kaz Hirai released a statement from CES today saying how pleased he was with the PS3's performance in the long run and that it's a profitable console, so I wouldn't say that it's done poorly.
