PS4 is doing remarkably well. It seems that if you give multiplat developers an easy console to develop for and give gamers the best experience (resolution bump/fps bump - no mater how small) in multiplats, then you can really dominate.

Exclusive content seems to be an old fashioned way of moving hardware. If Nintendo learns from this they could really do well with NX.

I'm going to assume it's a gimmicky underpowered piece of garbage though. Then I won't be disappointed if it is.

OG XB was not only more powerful it was also easier to develop for than the PS2. 

True - PS2 had the best exclusives back then (GTAIII etc). But that's what I meant by it being an old fashioned way of moving hardware. It hasn't worked since the PS2 days. I think if you launched something that much more powerful than a PS4 now and marketed it right (another one of Nintendo's weak points) you could do really well. Also, just like the OG XB, they'd be behind the 8-ball by launching so much later than the PS4. I doubt they can outsell it, but they can do so much better than the Wii U.
