No I am based firmly in reality.  

 

A reality where android / iOS is dominating Japan gaming,  

A reality where the handheld console market is much bigger,  

And a reality where people were expecting a terminal decline for PlayStation home consoles.  

 

In this reality,  the ps4 is saying no to death and is challenging it's predecessor the ps3 which did respectable numbers.  It's the only current gen console that's competing with it's predecessor.  All others showing big declines.  

 

It's a beast relative to the industry and market it sells in.  

Nope, because reality is that it is not doing to hot because of those reasons you listed above. It is not beasting if the market shrinks, it is not beasting if sales(this means revenue, not units) are overall in decline, it is not beasting if you are beating the console that had problem launching. You are very much not reality, and you care only for the console wars. That is how it is, no one besides maybe Roku, thinks you are not about the console wars. 

By that logic the 3DS wasn't a beast because it sold way less than the DS.  

 

When I say beast it obviously means relative to the current market.  Obviously.  

 

This is a market where it's competitors are going to sell ~100k and less than 4m respectively.  

 

To go on and sell 8m, 9m 10m+ is beastly.  going by the current market.
