The the PS4 was selling as badly as the Wii U was, Sony would've given up on it too.

You mean  like how badly  ps3  sold  at start and sony  did everything  they  could  to turn the tide and it did?

Thats not so simple, PS3 never had such a terrible sales like Wii U, you need to understand that after 1st 11 months on market Nintendo shipped only 3.9m Wii U consoles, Wii U had catastrophic sale after launch. Only real problem for PS3 was high price and basicly all Sony needed to do is to lower price to start seling better, while Wii U had plente of huge problems, going from name and marketing, weak launch and 1st year lineup, price, unappealing concept...problem that maid Wii U die in 1st year.

I checked out the Halo release week, and the first few months after launch.  It didn't outsell the PS4 any of those weeks, so I doubt it did at any point.  

To be fair though, we never had a 2 month old XBone against a 4.5 year old PS4.

3,5  years, you now understand  why ps5 wont be released  next year or im 2019..

Sony sticks  with  its main system until  next gen.

Nintendo  gave up on wiiu.

Prete sure if Sony had console that is faile on scale like Wii U, they would abandoned much faster than Nintendo did with Wii U, just look Vita.
