Apparently it's a sensitive subject bringing up the other consoles from the gen that failed. But as you said it's a good reference point hence why i mentioned it. 

I don't really give a rats ass how Wii U and Xbox One performed in Japan; they did actually fail. I used it to point out how you were using *them* to make yourself feel better about PS4 only doing mediocrely in Japan. I mean, damn dude! It'd be great if it outsold Wii (12 million), but it'd have to sell better than it is now to even get close.

And you ignore the market reality to say it's bad.

You can't really compare two consoles that were $400.00 and $600.00 at launch. 

And market reality changed a lot in about one decade.
