Not really.

The xbox One is a disaster in Japan, the WiiU is poor and the PS4 is not good.  The PS3 was bad for a playstation console so the PS4 "matching" that is not performing "remarkably well".

 

 

No home console is going to perform as well as the PS2 ever again. That's a pipe dream. The console market has shrunken in that regard since gaming has splintered since then. This is about what's to be expected. 

Now say if the NX was a hit, I'm not sure if you can classify that as handheld or console though.

Exactly.  A pipe dream.  

 

Meanwhile the ps4 is matching it's predecessor in a really tricky home console market.  Bravo.  It's the shining light in the japanese home console industry.  

 

This market alone will add a minimum of 8m units to ps4's lead over the xb1 worldwide this gen.  And they say Japan doesn't matter!  

 

It's almost single-handedly the reason why the ps4 line up is so diverse and much different to it's rival the xbox.
