But Nintendo sold 85M+ consoles with the 3DS and the Wii U combined. What is the reason to say that the Switch ended the "dark ages of Nintendo"? Do you think the Switch will top 85M+?

So are you implying that unless the PS4 can surpass the combined sales of the PS2 and PSP, it is a failure?

 

The PS3 plus VITA sales are relevant to WiiU plus 3DS sales, so did Sony flop in gen 8?

 

Also by your logic, the PS4 only now comes close to breaking even from last gen after five years, which by your logic, was a failure anyway.

 

I mean, if that is how success is to be measured, it should be the same across the board, correct?
