OT: Looks like PS4 did its thang from launch, good for it. Not looking good for any of the consoles though. PS4 wont keep up with Wii despite its massive launch is a huge letdown. Thank 3rd parties for that.

Really? Some guys said that last year... that except the strong launch PS4 won't sustain Wii sales but what happened? PS4 continued to outsell Wii every single month in 2014 increasing the gap.

When this Wii > PS4 will happen?

I think you need to check the numbers again lol. February was the last time PS4 beat Wii if I'm not mistaken.

the butthurt on this one is so good

Why are you so angry at me? You're free to think phenom08 was a good poster and that I'm a bad one and that he's right about me. At the same time; I'm free to have my opinion of him as a poster. Feels kind of strange to be called out by someone who made their account today and enters a 1.5 year old thread, I don't understand why this would be the first order of business for a fresh member. But; like I said, whatever floats your boat, this is not likely to become a productive discussion.

I'm angry? Your behavior towards him is what I would call angry. I called your behavior out because it should be. This thread was necroed so I decided to join the debate. I have a question for you? Why did you bring up post from other threads and discuss them here? Like he said they had no relevance here. Why is it ok for you to act so childishly and not him? He asked a simply question and you attacked.


And I called him out on his; his behavior and change of tones between threads was really relevant. It was also relevant because he kept moving goal posts, leading me (and others) to believe that it wouldn't matter which console sold the most in 2014 since he would likely disregard the outcome at any rate. And that is relevant.

I don't think you're properly familiar with his post history if you feel that I am the childish party here. And I'm still struck by how odd it is for a brand new member to make this his cause; not only are the posts very old, the OP is long gone and I don't see why you feel like jumping on me like this. Regardless; I don't think I want to take part in this discussion any longer, it's obviously not going anywhere and you clearly dislike me and my posts and clearly think I'm in the wrong somehow and there is nothing I can do to change that. Perhaps you would be better off finding your own agenda rather than picking up an ancient battle for a permabanned (and badly behaved) member in an old thread and "calling out" a boring old guy like me on your first day.

PS: The reason I always called him out on his behavior is nuggets like: "get off my nuts bitch" (said to a mod, actually) and other niceties, I don't see how I compare to that, to be honest.

Goalposts? He asked a question. What goalposts can you move by asking a question? You don't just compare, you are even worse. His trolling was obvious, you are a stealth troll. What does what he said to a mod have to do with this thread or your behavior? Stop seeing what you want to see and see the truth. His post history had no relevance here and I'm not sure what goalpost moving has to do with simple predictions. You didn't even do that, you came to this thread and attacked him childishly. He was asking posters to basically stick to the topic or leave. You instead childishly attacked him. What did you contribute? Why not just leave or ignore the thread if you thought it was a poor topic? Both you and jay childishly attacked. You are just trying to use his behavior has an excuse to stealth troll. You didn't even answer the rest of my questions because you were too busy attacking his character again. Boy you must have some kind of vendetta against him.

I don't understand why fans of a certain company keeps trying to bring down ps4 by comparing it to wii. I guess everything loses compared to ps2 with that logic lol


Which was Sony fans logic when Wii was beating Ps3. Wii vs. PS2 was everywhere lol. Now fans do Wii vs. PS4 and look at the lack of support from Sony fans.


what really matters is that PS4 is leading the way now this gen 8 with 7.2m sales,enjoy it

Pretty sure 3DS 40 million is higher than PS4s 7 million, enjoy it.

Really?

PS4 SOLD 2.8m units in Jan-Feb-Mar.

Wii SHIPPED 2.65m units in Jan-Feb-Mar.

Maybe I made a mistaken.

The numbers I have:

Wii: 3.19 (Q3) + 2.65 (Q4) = 5.84 (FY) SHIPPED
PS4: 4.2 (Q3) + 2.8 (Q4) = 7 (FY) SOLD TO CONSUMERS

Until End of March PS4 still sold more than Wii... maybe April to June it has a better lucky.

Obviously I meant monthly but ofcourse you give me the quarterly figures. Are you saying you believe PS4 will stay in front? If not then why even continue this with me?

How many crows had to die because of this thread? Damn, they must be near extinction by now.

No... I don't believe PS4 will be ahead this holiday for example but it sold more than Wii in the first three months of the year... sad we don't have April sales yet but I guess Sony will release it when they reach 8 million in mid May.

BTW how do you know the monthly sales?

From VGC I can see 1050k + 900k + 930k that give us 2880k... Nintendo shipped only 2650k Wiis in first quarter of 2007.

nothing to enjoy there,handhelds and consoles are separated on the front page sales figures for a reason,take a look

people only get annoyed that PS4 is leading the Wiiu & One in sales i find,you must have read some threads about it i'm sure,shame the WiiU couldn't follow up the Wii's succes but that is teh console warz for you,try respecting the PS4 it deserves it for leading this gen
