PS1 was outselling SNES, (i think, i need confirmation for this) PS2 was outselling PS1, Wii was outselling PS2, and yes PS4 will start outselling PS360, this is what next gen systems are supposed to do, so why is the Second Coming of Christ when WiiU does it by 2-3k in one region (and still gets outsold badly WW)? |
"Grasping at straws" is quite ironic coming from you. And "Second coming of Christ"? Seriously?
You conveniently left out how the 360 and PS3 fared against the PS2 in their first years. And I'm pretty sure the NES outsold the Genesis in its first year as well. Funny how you accuse others of not having evidence of early console sales when you provide zero yourself. What I do know is that Super Mario 3 was released during the Genesis' first year, so it's a pretty safe bet that the NES was the sales victor that year. It definitely outsold the TG16. Also, the SNES outsold the 3DO in its first year and the PS1 outsold the Dreamcast. So your argument still fails.
The PS4/XB1, like the WiiU, would have been a tough sell against PS360 THIS year due to the reasons I've mentioned multiple times . That's my point. By next year they will be much better poised to compete since 360/PS3 will already be on their NINTH/EIGHTH years respectively, and finally on their way out with no new big releases like GTAV, Bioshock Infinite, Tomb Raider or The Last of Us. So my point still stands. Oh, and WiiU will be doing much, much better next year as well.
And the Wii outselling everything right away has already been addressed. Not my fault you can't grasp it.
