Do you guys post any old shit?

Read the article. It says that it's the best they've seen IN THEIR SEVEN YEAR HISTORY. That makes it about 2006 sometime.

These guys probably haven't even been around for a decent console preorder before...

The Wii U, 3DS and PS Vita all say hi!

That's all they're comparing it to? Wooooow.

You should already know that the majority of 3DSes sold after the price was cut, and just like all Nintendo consoles, there is never many preorders, snce the manufacturer tends to keep supply up with overwhelming demand. I can list a dozen friends who didn't preorder and instead waited for a final price on launch day.

As for the Vita, what do you want me to say?

I don't expect you to say anything about it. This is a news article and whatever other items they may be comparing it to, it still is good that the thing is being pre-ordered like this.

But if you want to downplay it some more, go right ahead ;)

There's a difference between downplay and shooting an obvious failed article. How about posting something from one of the major retailers (ones that have been around for at least 15 years or so) saying the same thing, instead of a new company that has never experienced any sort of major preorder event? 

I can see what you're trying to do here with a misleading article, and no, it doesn't mean that the PS4 is the most preordered thing in existence. You'll need a lot more proof than a newb company's statement...
