As it turns out Nu-13 is exactly right.  PS4 has average legs, for a leading console.  The main factor that makes the PS4 have good legs is that it is the leading console for the generation.  Once you compare it to other leading consoles, then it has average legs.

Except the word "leading" has never been mentioned until you brought it up. So no.

The underlying discussion of this whole thread is which will sell better, PS4 or Switch?  You can say that PS4 has impressive legs, but Switch should also be expected to have impressive legs.  That is because leading consoles almost always have impressive legs (by that standard). 

Switch is selling better than launch aligned PS4.  It is selling like a leading console.  We should expect it's legs to be impressive as well.  In fact, the Switch's legs are as likely to be better than the PS4's as they are likely to be worse.  When comparing leading consoles, PS4 is right in the middle.  That is why in the context of this thread it is misleading to say that PS4 has impressive, or even above average legs.  PS4 isn't more likely to have more impressive legs than the Switch.
