Well it can happen and can be more likely than the opposite but this didn't make sure it will happen. When happen then we can talk about how PS4 lacked behing Wii. I'm showing facts proving with numbers them... you guys says it will underperforming because guesses that it will sell less than Wii. |
I work with statistics and raw experimental data, I never give 100% unless its the latter where I have physical things to present. I give estimations, predictions, and formulae from which conclusions can be drawn and then verified experimentally.
You're not really proving anything at the moment other than the fact that the PS4 launched strong while the Wii performed more consistently... which is their point, actually. They are saying, very specifically, that the strong launch and subsequent inconsistent and sliding month-to-month sales (barring out outlier and Destiny outlier next month) are a very, very bad sign of a front, loaded console that is not actually doing as well as people think it is doing... This is literally impossible to deny as its very much in the numbers you posted.
Trajectories paint a good picture. Trajectories can also be wrong... but then normally that isn't the case because a trajectory exists for a reason.
Your own data is especially damning if you compare 2007/2014 only.
