You said that the numbers were "bad news for Sony" and they just aren't. Who's numbers are comparing the real numbers to? Who thought the PS4 was going to have a better January and February than the Wii? It sounds more like someone just preditced wrong than this being an issue for Sony.
|
When did I say that the numbers are bad news for Sony ? These numbers are half decent and it's falling out of our expectations.
|
"This doesn't sound good for the PS4 ..." That was your first post on this thread. Which is equal in meaning to "This sounds bad for the PS4"
You've also yet to explain whos expectations the PS4 is falling short of.
|
That's wrong but I can see people getting that expression so I should clarify there for moment to say that the PS4 isn't doing good or bad and is instead doing decent although with a slight balance towards the bad side.
It's fallen short of everyone's expectations on this forum seeing as how people are running around screeming undertracked which means that there's alot of panicking or their either damage controlling the situation at hand.

Well no, that's actually what that means. "doesn't" is a contraction of "does not". "Not" being an auxilery word used to turn a phrase to it's negative. In this case "Good" would be the affected word which in it's negative turns into "bad".
How is the second best January ever (with February likely to follow) "decent although with a slight balance towards that bad"?
Once again, who's numbers are you going off of? Who said it was going to outsell the Wii in January and February? Please, let me know. VGchartz has also been consisently undertracking the PS4 so why would it change all of a sudden?
|
No it doesn't. This isn't binary. There are THREE states.
Nobody was expecting it to outsell the WII for january and february but everyone was expecting it to be comparable and the PS4 has fallen short of it. BTW the undertracking hasn't being all that huge.
|
According to Merian-Webster the first full definition of "Not" is, 1- Used as a function word to make negative a group of words or a word. The antonym of "good" is "bad".
So "nobody" was expecting it outsell the wii for those months but "everyody" was expecting them to be comparable? Even if that were remotely provable that doesn't change the fact that both compared to it's current competition and historically the PS4 is selling very, very well.
