This might seem a little rude of me, but those who thinks that what was sold in the previous generation should be a marker for the current generations number for success of the console are being unrealistic. Markets fluctuate all the time. This generation could possibly see itself lower than the previous generation on all sides.
OT: I personally think a console isn't a failure if it at least brings in profits for the company. Higher number of sales can mean more profits, but it also depends on the console as well. How much does it need to sell in order to become profitable? Depends on how much they spent and how they priced it.
