Lol, if over 80 million is your worst selling console you are waaaay ahead of the game.

That’s why it amazes me when people put down the PS3’s numbers. It is still the 5th best selling console of all time, even though it’s the worst selling PS home consoles 

The PS3 launch was a failure. The system took Sony four years before it turned a profit. The only reason it sold so many units was because Xbox360 and PS3 was the longest generation cycle. The PS3 turned the ship around and was successful in the later year of it's cycle but overall it was dark time in Sony Playstation history. 

In the end all of PS3 shortcoming gave way to the extremely successful PS4 launch and becoming the darling of this generation.
