I think it's fairly obvious why PS4 is outselling the competition. Compared to WiiU it has more of the big third-party games that consumers buy, e.g. Madden, Fifa, Battlefield. Compared to Xbox One, it started cheaper and more powerful, and avoided all the negative PR that plagued Microsoft early this generation.

What I don't get, however, is why it's selling SO well. It's almost a year later, and the majority of PS4's best sellers are available on several other platforms, including Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PS3. I don't understand why more people aren't waiting for the library to grow and the price to drop.

People want new things now. It's why androids and iphones sell out over and over again. There's no reason to buy every new phone version. But people masturbate to tech a lot. Doesn't matter if it doesn't have the games. Few people have the patients. Most don't. And to those people. it's the only option. The other consoles are not important at first glance.
