Not exactly a fair comparison since most of those consoles had their first Christmas in those first 30 weeks. PS4 hasn't had its first Christmas (in Japan) yet.

Nintendo 64 is coming on June... and have sold triple.

PS4 sell 5,000 in a normal week...

Console like Dreacast or Saturn, more than 10,000.

Japan has already had Christmas in July

Where's the PS2? I wanted to look at it's numbers and make a snarky comment like, "How the mighty have fallen," but you didn't include it! What am I supposed to do now?

This are VGChartz number.

So, no PS2.

Which of the consoles you mentioned spent their first 30 weeks in off season?



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

It's important to note that most of those consoles launched during the holida- oh what's the point?



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

I don't know why you use the Dreamcast to proof how horrible the PS4 is doing, the Dreamcast had a slow launch but consistently sold well in the first months, if we exclude the launch period then it easily beat the Wii U as well for example.

Anyway I'm still fairly certain that the PS4 will end up the leading home console this gen in Japan, how many consoles that will mean in the end we'll have to see.
