| sundin13 said: What sounds like excuses? PS4 is selling well, but it isn't doing amazingly...it just looks like it because the XBO and Wii U are selling badly. Compare its sales to the Wii's first summer (2007) where it had a baseline around 250k, or check out the summer of 2008 where all three consoles and both handhelds were routinely over 100k in sales...Yeah, 100k for the first summer is good but is it something to brag about? Not really... Also, I mainly said he sounded like a fanboy because of all the "Playstation always delivers" talk...it just sounds like he is over selling it a bit and it sounds silly. Note: My comment about him being a fanboy what just a minor note that was far from my main point, hence it being in parenthesis. Certainly not something to get fixated on. |
Im not getting fixated, I'm responding to your comment as a whole, don't include it if you don't want a response.
PlayStation has provided the games in every generation they have been a part of. Even the Vita is plagued by not having the focus of Sony rather than not having games. Why exactly would this generation be any different?
The market is not a vacuum, if you are doing better than your competitors, you are doing well regardless. Comparing the performance of this generation to last one is practically pointless, considering the market is much different and the economy is different as well.
The Wii wasn't competiting against the monster of that the mobile industry is today. If you can't divorce the mainstream influence in the success of the Wii, it should be obvious how its barely a equivalent comparison.
Sure, it won't reach Wii levels but that as irrelevant as saying the Wii U won't reach PS2 levels.
