What does that have to do with anything? Had they shipped asnmuch as Sony they may have not been hard to find. That dosent change the sale totals.

How exactly is that information not relevant to a sales discussion?  Congratulations to Sony for having less demand but a higher manufacturing output... is that what you want to hear?  The PS4 is selling great no doubt, but celebrating it selling more than a product that was heavily supply constrained seems a bit pointless. 

Swing and a miss. How can you factually say the Wii had more demand than the PS4? You cant. Whos to say if Nintendo produced the same amount of consoles as Sony , they wouldnt have sold the same amount as they did? You cant answer these questions with out speculation and assumption. I can however say that during the same time frame Sony did produce more consoles. Who knows how many of those are still on shelves? Point is its ahead of the Wii for the most consoles sold in in the history of console sales. Why not shout that from the roof tops if you are a Sony fan? I sure heard alot of Nintendo fans pounding thier chests las gen....

It's really not much of an assumption.  Their sales are quite close and people were still lining up at stores and camping out for Wiis during it's first two years.  Demand was not even close to being met until some 25m consoles later.   There is nothing wrong with championing PS4's sales numbers.  They are fantastic.  However, the comparison being made is quite flawed.  Leaving out a very important fact in this sales comparison (and in your case pretending it doesn't even exist at all), simply to reinforce held views on the subject is disingenuous at best.  But whatever floats your boat. 


Yeah, im done responding to you.
