Japanese launch of the succesful PlayStation4 console has been shadowed by the Wii U and Vita numbers. Yes. After two days the PS4 managed to sell 322,000 units according to the tracker Famitsu.

But, aren't those numbers good? No, it isn't good. Expectations of the console has been raised to the point of being the savior of the homeconsole market in a mobile country where even the 3DS is starting to fad away. Those 322,000 units for a hyped launch are too similar to its brother, PSVita (321,000) and its counterpart from Nintendo, the Wii U (306,000).

There's no need to point how bad are the performace of both consoles when even games like Super Mario 3D World and Soul Sacrifice cannot stop both devices from an inminent crash.

It's even worse when you take in count the succesful mainstream Wii and the PS2. Both of them, which will be outsold by the PS4 according to experts and dreams, managed to get more sales. Wii with 371,000 units and PS2 with a smashing 990,000 figure. But, why should it need to outsell the Wii? It is if  you expect it to outsell the PS2, and even more considering it has been celebrated to death how this new console is surpassing worlwide week after week the succesful Nintendo conosle, Wii.

There's only one more thing to say. Way an uphill to reach the PS2 numbers.

With only 350k being shipped in Japan, did you somehow expect it to sell more than that?

Note: Media Create insiders also confirmed that Sony shipped 350,000 PS4 units at launch in Japan, so the company sold almost all that it could manufacture, pointing towards a stronger Japanese market than many had expected.

Problem. Nintendo sold out its first launch.  The reason for it being low is because general demand is low. 

Some Ps4 fans seem to think Ps4 is going to destroy all trends every home console had last gen and grow.

I'm starting to think it's not because they actually believe it will happen but they want it to happen.

Ps4 going to hit 90,000 my prediction than there will be excuses. Demand or under stock even though nothing to prove it.

than it will hit 40,000 same excuse.  Going into March.

Than 20,000 (lol it's doing better than wiiu at least) second week of March.

than 14,000 same as last week and continue excuses.

8,000 it will come back when final fanasty 14.

 7,000 e3 2014 ff14 released 2015. It will recover whenever it comes out!
