But Switch is also the successor to 3DS so comparing it exclusively to Wii U makes no sense at all.

Also PS4 is selling significantly more than its predecessor as well so your argument falls flat.

The Switch isn't the successor to the 3DS, it is sold at the same time, while the Wii U is discontinued. New games are coming for the 3DS. And the Switch is sold at the same price as the Wii U and have the same library as the Wii U, not the 3DS. That's why it makes sense.

 

And for your comparison Wii U/Switch vs PS3/PS4, you must be joking. The PS4 didn't outsold the PS3 in 1 year, and didn't sold twice as many in less than 2 years. It actually got 5 years to the PS4 to outsell the PS3, close to the end of the generation. So that comparison makes no sense at all.

PS4 must not be the successor to PS3 then, I mean PS3 was still on the market for ~2 years after PS4 launched and was getting new games.

I'm not comparing Wii U/Switch to PS3/PS4, I'm comparing 3DS/Switch to PS3/PS4.

You are coming up with the most flimsy excuses for being upset about people being impressed with PS4.
