Let's compare shall we:

Wii U launch sales to Dec 2012 with 2 months notice on price and availability : 3.08 million
PS4 pre-orders taken for 11 months with price and availability to purchase as of December 2013: 2.1 million

A demand is there but clearly it falls short of the hype and momentum coming out of E3 2013. Also if there are shortage issues now, shouldn't Sony have had ample time to stop that from actually happening?

Where in the world did you get that 3.08m from? WiiU had sold 810k at the start of December. They ended the year with 2.2 million. 

Thanks for the correction. I read the IGN post wrong. They were accounting for all sales until January 2013. My bad.http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/01/30/nintendo-financials-reveal-wii-u-sales

That said, the demand for the PS4 is still not as high as Sony believes it is.
