... "at best 150k per month"? What are you talking about? In June, Wii U sold over 350k. In July, it sold just over 250k. It has sold more than 150k every month this year except April.

Besides which, we're talking about WiiU+XBO vs PS4. If WiiU+XBO is selling slightly faster than PS4 per week now, and the PS4 and XBO both get boosts of around 300% for holidays, and Wii U gets a boost of around 500% for holidays, then WiiU+XBO will be selling significantly faster than PS4 over the holidays.

Also, PS4 hasn't sold less than 500k a month since launch. Its worst month so far is May, with 540k.

Context is important.

Sigh... averages.

From january 2014 till end of july, using VG worldwide numbers, the wiiU has sold ~1.4M. If you divide that by 7 january to july thn you have 200k per month (this is an average). Yes this is more than what i said, but what i said for the PS4 is also a LOT less than what it actually does (PS4s average this year is actually at 685k/month). I was just rying to make a point.

I shaved off 150k for the wiiU to make my point and shaved off 180k for the PS4. Real numbers would be something like (using 300% for PS4 and 500% for wiiU)... PS4= 2.02M/month@300% boost and wiiU = 1M/month@500% boost.

and I was not talking about the wiiU+XB1. I jutst pointed out that i do not get this boost thing people always talk about in relation to wiiU sales as if they forget what average the boost is even affaecting. 

I singled out the wiiU, and went on to say what I dont understand and gave an example. Yet you are here talking about context?
