Your trying  to  hard to downplay. 

 

Wiiu sold 14mill

Xbox  30?

Switch 4-6?

Ps4 60.

3ds 65?

 

Where do you see the 300milll sold stuff?

 

60 in this day  of age with the huge pc and mobile crowd ia amazing!!  Absolutely  groundbreaking  amazing. 

The only way to compare eras is marketshare. If we take the numbers you provided, the PS4 is sitting at roughly 34% marketshare. In order for the PS4 to be as dominant as the NES was in the late 80's, it would have to currently be sitting at around 157 million units sold. And again, remember, this is EXCLUDING mobile and PSV sales.

Do you understand now? We shouldn't really copare numbers directly without taking into account the eras and the different circumstances invovled.

More nonsense. So, we're not using actual numbers anymore but marketshare? So, if the PS4 sold out 10M lifetime vs its competitors total of 1M, it would have done better because of the bigger marketshare?

And how ironic that you say you can't compare numbers without taking into accounts the circumstances of the era when you do just that.
