Pretty much as expected here.

Though it's fair to say everything is terrible. Yes, that includes the PS4 as well. It's doing well relatively but the sales are still pretty weak. 

Not sure what's up with the 3DS boost. But, eh. The numbers seem more believable now which is always good.

Early on in the console cycle in June and still selling over 100k is not even remotely weak.

What are you comparing it to?

The sales of, say, the 360 and the PS3. These systems hovered around the 100k mark in this point in their life. The PS4 is above it, yes, but people who are making it out to be "another PS2" scenario are just not looking at the sales objectively but only relatively. 

Maybe "weak" is the wrong word, but as the market leader by some distance it just reflects poorly on the state of the market as a whole. The Xbox One should hopefully change that in the coming weeks and make it look healthier however. 

Hopefully that explains some things for you.
