The amount of downplay in this thread

The amount of victim mentally in this thread is also priceless. "Sony achievements are always put behind bc we are surrounded by Nintendo fans!"

What an excellent counter argument. Sure, let's call it victim mentality and call it a day.

Another milestone to take note of. Very soon ps4 will pass total software sold for NES and Gameboy. As it had sold 487m units of software as of June 11th.



The ps4 is still outpacing the ps2, but seeing how the ps2 sold after one minute on the market this isn't that great for a system like the ps4. I hope sony survives this console



That's not milestone for Sony. Anyone who surpasses sonys records has hit a milestone.

Lol! This is not a counter argument. It's a statement based on evidence in this thread. 

Now do you have anything to argue against it or will you just make a bland sarcastic post and call it a day?

So if 60 million isn't impressive what kind of ultra fails might the Xone, Wii U and Vita be. I would say anything above 50 million in today's marker is impressive but appearently that's mediocre at best.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

You may wanna look up the word "evidence".



Big dfference between the market in the NES era and now. Smaller market then and NES was the first to reach that milestone and created the market. NES was a complete revolution of the industry. Mario bros,Zelda the D-pad and licensing. PS4 isn't at all,it's popular and a great console but doesn't do anything new.  Only NES was it a massive deal if a friend had one. All the neighborhood kids would come over and have parties & sleepovers just to play NES. Most kids got 1-3 games in a year but always the one kid who had a bunch of them.  60 million in this day and age is still great mind you. It just doesn't mean the same as back then and not nearly as impressive as the 8 bit era. NES had to revive and carve out that market and PS4 is selling to an existing one already.

Oh, people do have noticed but weirdly enough none of them has posted about it.

i think many nintendo fans did notice but for some strange reason none of them wanted to post about it

Guess you "have not noticed" since you're a poor Sony fan in a Nintendo biased website

Impressive, but the game market was quite a bit smaller back then.
