Failure? I'm actually curious. I hear a lot of people call it that. But, it's already around 30 million units. That puts it near the sales of the Sega Genesis, Nintendo 64, and original Xbox, and it's still selling. It should definitely pass all of those consoles by the end of this year. It seems that gamers have this "either you're first or you're last" mentality when it comes to console sales. What do you all think?

The Sega Genesis beat the SNES in the US almost completely every year until 1994, when DKC and Sega's next console came out. You can't compare direct sales from older generations due to install base. Simply put, there are just way more people gaming now than back in those days.
