Didn't PS4 only ship 2 mil in its first month, too? And Sony were surprised by it's early success. And I think Nintendo realized how weak their product library was. Honestly saying Nintendo just needed to "believe" more is easy to do in hindsight, but a little over 2 mil in the first month seems like a good safe number. I think the fact that Nintendo is having trouble catching up is the real frustration. 

Pretty sure ps4 sold 1m in one day in the US alone.

Both points are true. The PS4 released first only in US, sold a million first week (which probably was one day). But second week were less than 100K, still only US, probably supply constrained. Third week was last week of November, sold nearly a million with the launch in europe (so including US sales of barely more than 100K and european sales of 700K). So, one million first day and two millions first month:
