Now I'm using VGC numbers but according to them, PS3 in 2009 sold almost 4 mill in December alone. That was the number I was referring to. Wii sold more than 4m only in December 2007 too according to the same source, and 2008, 2009 and 2010 were even more stronger.

If Sony is counting from BF week, it seems PS4 should have sold "only" around 3-3'5m in December. That's why I made the 20m sold prediction and why i'm disappointed.

2009 was the price cut year I believe when the PS3 became $299. And we only know shipments numbers really.

Well, you asked when PS3 sold that good, and I give you the numbers VGC showed. For your interest, VGC shows around 3'5 mill PS3 sold in 2010 and 2011 too. They're stillbetter numbers that the ones VGC will show for PS4 in December 2014.

Edit: And by VGC numbers too, X360 sold 4 million each December of 2010 and 2011. I expected PS4 to put into shame both consoles this December and was the opposite.

You are using numbers 4 years into the Gen after new consoles and price drop had happenned. Look at 2006 and 2007 numbers, only Wii putting any such kind of numbers. A year from now, $299 PS4, you think numbers won't be higher.
