No!If you outpacing a console doesn't mean that you will outsell it,same thing if you're below a console doesn't mean that you won't outsell it!Wii was killing ps2 in its first years,did wii outsell it?
Your prediction automatically implies that xbone will outsell xbox360 as it outpaces it,but probably it will sell the half of xbox360 sales,it just selling fast and compares to xbox360 first years that were mediocre!These comparisons doesn't mean anything,there are many paradigms for that!
PS4 can't be the leg beast that ps2 was,ps2 had a successor that was anemic in its first years,leaving it the space to keep growing!See what ps4 is doing to ps3,after its release made ps3 to decline heavily,so ps5 won't leave the space to ps4 to grow any further!
Lastly,ps2 sold almost 26m in Japan,given the current situation of the console market in Japan it would be lucky to sell 5m there,so cut 21m,the other thing is the xb1 competition in USA and the market shrinkage(It is returning to the levels of 6th gen) but currently we can see it as ps4 and xb1 selling fast!So ps4 isn't able to outsell ps2 in my opinion!

alright this is going to make me sound like a fanboy but it needs to be said considering a lot of people think that xbox one is competition. it took xbox one dropping the price three times in less than a year ($400, $350, $329 on black friday) with two $60 and $30 games in some cases more than two games with a $50 gift card, a custom call of duty xbox one, a white sunset overdrive xbox one, and four halo games for $60 with a beta to halo 5 to outsell the ps4 in their strongest territory for one or two months. the xbox one was selling for about the same price as a ps3. before the holidays it occasionally got outsold by the wii u. i don't see xbox one being competition.

400 didn't really count. They took the Kinect out. It was less value. 329 does really count as it was one freaking day basically. One of the games being bundled is known for being broken. White sunset overdrive was available for 3 days then got sold out. Cod has been sold out since like the middle of November. Ps4 had deals too. The Mcc was broken. You can't just take away the value of the games and say it was seeing the same price as ps3. It doesn't work that way.it got outsold by wii u after Mario Kart and when wii u was in in its 2nd year. Xbox One is competition and will always be competition. Especially when big names com out like halo 5 and gears
