Social Media Making it Hard To Gauge Scope of PS4 Technical Difficulties

I think I only saw 1 thread here saying the Wii U didn't worked at all during launch. The rest were stuff like extremely slow updates and, sometimes, game freezes (but the console still working perfectly). So I'm pretty sure very very few people had DOA Wii U consoles.

If we are to believe the PS4 issues (which with the recent news about what Amazon did there might be some ground to them), then it will be much worse than the Wii U launch.

Amazon didn't do nothing about that.

And Wii U have one of the worst launch in terms of issues in the history (remember RROD was way post launch)... but I'm sure PS4 have issues... lower or more than Wii U? I don't yet... we just need more time.

I would like hard evidence for this. 

But anyway the Wii U issues were the extremely painful day 1 patch that took forever even with a fast internet connection and sometimes game freezes. Issues? Yes. Extremely big issues that broke your console? No. So calling the Wii U the worst launch in terms of issues is an exaggeration. If there is a failure rate for Wii U consoles at launch I would like to see it, and I honestly doubt is very high.
