I think you're going to see a dramatic dropoff of PS4 sales in February until it launches in Japan. Not to the point where it is doing bad, but I think that people who wanted one haven't been able to find one until recently.
Japan will really help their sales but within three months everybody who wants one in Japan will find one too.
It's just that when there's a line of people who want one but can't get one, every single console will sell out until that desire is satiated. Then it becomes a normal, week-to-week sales slog.
The Wii was selling out in stores everywhere you looked for one for over two years. Do you really think the PS4 will be like that? It's already not in NA/EU.
Just enjoy the solid PS4 sales as great sales; don't apply delusions to it that will only disappoint you in the long run.
