I... DRINK... YOUR... MILKSHAKE!! SLUURP I DRINK IT UP!!!

You can't be serious, right? Bloody hilarious!

So what's anti-cosumerism of Sony? The cross-play thing? The no BC thing? What else can you come up with?

Do you have any idea, at all, what MS has done in the past 35 years?

Its hard to just call folks who own a PS4 a "fanboy" when the numbers suggest they might likely be old 360 gamers. Think about it.

If you bought Bioshock, Lost Planet, Mass Effect etc, many of those reasons for buying a 360, are not reasons to buy XONE, so they saw great reason to just buy a PS4 and have it all as suppose to some.

PS4 has VR
XONE doesn't.

By default, it is doing something more innovated then XONE.

Look in the mirror.

Also, I didn't know protecting your consumer base from the competition is anti-consumerism.

Please, show me the petitions regarding BC and crossplay to prove me wrong.

Perhaps you should consider a name change, lol.

I don't think you're old enough to even know what anti consumer even means.
Remember the start of this gen and how MS chased all the smart grown ups away... do you remember why that happened?

Ya, I thought so 🤣

It's hard to say if the Wii "counts." On the one hand, it was a console and it had actual full-fledged games, some of them the best of their genre of the generation (Xenoblade, Mario Galaxy, etc); but on the other, most of the consumers who bought it used it for nothing more than Wii Sports/Fit or Carnival Games and and other shovelware titles.

Sure, you can argue that SOME of the other consoles of this generation and last were sold primarily as Netflix or Bluray devices, but its more fair to say MOST Wii systems were used as a "something grandma can use to pretend to bowl" rather than "console for games."

It's in a similar situation with mobile gaming: can you really call the people who "game" primarily on a phone "gamers?" Does the mobile market even count as a platform for gaming when most of it is littered with clones and F2P moneysinks akin to gambling?

It doesn't really make sense comparing it, because it's not the same demographic. For the same reason we don't really consider mobile gamers when talking about the gaming community, because they're not really gamers in most cases. They have no interest in consoles or PC gaming, they just like to play candy crush or something (which is totally fine btw, but doesn't make sense to factor in these numbers when we're talking about different demos). It was the same deal with Wii, it was essentially a console for non-gamers, and in that regard it was a great success, but for the same reason we don't consider candy crush in these conversations, we don't really consider Wii sports either.

As I said you cannot read I was guessing before I found the link, I found the link after and shared the actual article that supplied the details.

I supplied information by guessing at what I remember from the article a while back, excuse me for not remembering such meaningless data from June 9. I did not try to say I was right and I was spot on accurate, so quit implying that I was trying to inaccurately portray the figures. I was curious to find the numbers and did so. You fanboys kill me, and make me wonder why the hell I even comment on this damn site. Your heads are just so far up your own asses, it blows my mind.

But yeah genious you caught me, I actually work for Sony marketing and my goal at the company is to admittedly guess sales numbers and then supply accurate sales data to prove my point. Give this man a medal.

Diaaaamn Son!

VG Chartz actually under-tracked the PS4 by more than 2 million units ? Wowza.

The Wii is still beating the PS4. Do you have a comparison for the PS2 as well?

Wii has a 11+ million lead at the 41 month point. Interesting. I still would like to see the PS2 comparison as well. http://www.vgchartz.com/art...

Total Lead: 11,477,088 – Wii

PlayStation 4 Total Sales: 58,032,855

Wii Total Sales: 69,509,943
