wii u launch was 970k, how is that 3 times less than ps4's 1.7m launch?

"Plus, the ps4 is almost definitely going to go over 3 million" you expect launch numbers again?

Oh, so the PS4 has launched in Japan already? I wasn't aware of that... The Wii U has launched with about 650k in the west. compared to the PS4 with about 1.8 million, so the Wii U sold about 2.75 times less than the PS4.

lt_dan is a bit optimistic if he thinks that the PS4 is cracking 3 million this week, supply is simply not there for that to happen, but if you think the console won't get to 3 million this december then you're in for a rude awakening.

sony chose not to release in japan to alocate the units to america and europe. had it released in japan too, ps4's numbers would have been the same.

The WiiU launched with a little over 500k in the west based on what I'm seeing, so yes, the ps4 sold about 3 times as well. You're also ignoring the fact that the Lost all demand after the initial few weeks of supply. While sony if showing a very high demand. So that means, no matter where it releases, it's going to sell the units that there is a demand for. Whether it be at launch, or 2 months later. And on top of this, you have been deverting from the main subject of your rediculous prediction of 20million for the wiiU. I predict the ps4 will surpass the wiiU in sales by the end of January at the latest, and the xbox one will do so by the end of February. 
@derneberl. I don't think the ps4 is going to sell 3 million by the end of this week. I'd expect 2.5 probably. I was trying to make a statement about the demand for the console.
