Where was all this "doom and gloom" talk when the PS3 was going through a rough patch in its first couple of years?

On basically every games website, forum, newspaper and tv segment covering videogames, were you hibernating in 2006/2007?

Yes I remember the "high jumper fail" PS3 gif that would get thrown around when the PS3 failed to top 100k in a NPD month. It was roasted relentlessly, lol. 

The scary thing is the Wii U is selling considerably worse than the PS3 was even back then. October 2013 for Wii U 50k < 60K .... lets be nice and assume that's 59k ... the PS3 sold 121k its first October (2007). 

And the PS3 was $499.99 at that time versus $299.99 for the Wii U (w/game bundled).
