LOL, you're too benevolent, they were pissed-off as wasps at the very HD twins concept, they hated it more than the most hated Dragonball villains!

I think your numbers are to high for every console. 

 

More like: 800k ps4, 500k one, and 200k Wii U

 

Don't forget kids also want iPads this time.

Europe launch + Black friday for PS4.

Kids have wanted iPads for the last 3 years.


I don't get these kids, why would you like an iPad o.O

Because they have horrible parents that teach them that image is everything (or that almost ignore them and abandon them to themselves, easy prey of the worst influences), so they stop too early enjoying their childhood, they stop playing just for playing sake and they become fashion-slave little douchebags.

50%+ marketshare!!!


I specifically remember the Wii having total sales higher than PS3 and 360 combined.

EDIT: Oh it was 49%. That actually makes the thread funny :)

EDIT2: It's a bane of physicists that we look at numbers quickly and just round them out for convenience and an overall picture.



Around the Network

Actually the XBox 360 and the Wii U being the first console system released in their generation (7th and 8th) temporarily held 100% market share because they had no competition for 11 to 12 months.



49% Is close enough and since Ninty could careless what a bunch of posters say...in their eyes they did achieve market domination with DS and Wii. Now with WiiU and 3DS should also do the same.

PS4 has surpassed wii u in uk in terms of life time sales. Now I am waiting ps4 to surpass wii u's worldwide life time sales. Cant wait.

That seems very likely at this point.
