How long will PS4 be able to track with the Wii? Wii had 3 to 4 amazing years. It's hard to imagine in it's 4th December, Wii sold 7.4Mil, about as much as Wii U has sold in 2 years.

From November 25th 2006 - January 3rd 2009 (2 years), Wii sold 43,595,128 units. Now, what exactly would keep PS4 from obtaining the same result?

Right now PS4 cost $150 more, than what Wii did, and it is still pulling Wii numbers. PS4 clearly has the better 3rd party support between the two, and PS4 has a lot more interesting projects coming up; Playstation Vue, Playstation Now, and Morpheus. 

Also, there will be tons of games next year.

PS4 sales are from gamers who want to play games but Wii sales are from casuals who wanted to try motion control gimmick. So, PS4 sales are all time great for any gaming machine considering its 150$ more than Wii and it has competition in their segments from XB1 and Wii U unlike Wii was different from PS3 and XB360.
