Yes PS4 is dominating, but I I find it hard to think it was because it has awesome AAA games. Just my opinion.

It's called the butthurt (ignore) button.this forum really needs a dislike button for stupid posts like the one quoted above.
Fair enough, but you are saying that it's not the popularity that is selling the product. Of course it is. Yes, hardware, price, etc ARE indeed helping, but it's first and foremost a popular brand to begin with, especially world wide. Last gen showed us that Sony did not need a lower price, better hardware, etc to come out about equal with 360.
Now that you mention, I remember now that there is another console call WiiU.Where's the Wii U? Oh that's right, Nintendo is irrelevant.
Sony announced 7 million PS4s sold to consumers by April 6. After selling ~400k for 3 months, it's about 8.2-8.4 million right now.

Flynn, I'm not saying the ps name is the only reason...I'm simply saying it's the primary reason. Last gen proved that.
Of course there are other reasons, but name brand is #1 reason. If you reversed hardware and name, PS4 would stil be ahead.
Again, going by last gen.
I think people expect that Sony is waiting for 10 million.
Announcing every million can get tedious.

You know, I love Nintendo. But even on a dedicated gaming site like this one, the Wii U forum feels like a ghost town.
BS and Bias =blindness
XB never won a generation and at this rate..never will. PS popularity is way beyond that of the XB.
fact remains... pointless comparing a consoles sales from japan against a console that is not yet on sale there.
i.e. your wrong to try and compare console sales between systems when not available in the same markets. try again next year when things should have changed.
I wouldn't use this forum as a gauge for broad interest.You know, I love Nintendo. But even on a dedicated gaming site like this one, the Wii U forum feels like a ghost town.
its actually rather interesting that you would say this, because, if i can remember correctly, this same twist wasn't put on the 360 when it launched a full year ahead of Sony's PS3, and (unlike now) that did included major territories, too. people like yourself generally ran with the information and left it at that. now that the shoe is on the other foot, suddenly its foul? give me a break.
what, do you expect Sony to apologise because their competition wasn't prepared?
And that's the nuance we disagree on.
Last gen proved that a brand can save a product from dying, even when it is worse than the competition, but it in no way "proves" the brand is the primary reason behind strong sales this gen. There's no proof that supports that claim, and I think your evidence is actually evidence to the contrary. PS2 was the biggest, best selling console of all time. PS3 lost half of Sony's market share. Xbox 360
Switch the names, and I don't think the numbers would be much different... but we can't prove it one way or the other, so we'll just have to agree to disagree there.
Something interesting to note:
PS2: Nearly 160 mil to date.
PS3: Around 80 mil to date.
Sony's market share plummeted -50%
Xbox Prime: roughly 25 mil to date.
Xbox 360: roughly 80 mil to date.
Microsoft's market share rose +300% (and continues to rise)
Even though last gen PS3 and X360 sold comparably, it was obviously a HUGE win for Microsoft, and a HUGE loss for Sony. Generation over generation, Microsoft's console soared with well over +300% in sales, and the 360 is still going. It may get up to 100 million, quadrupling Xbox prime's numbers.
The PS3 was a disaster for Sony. They LOST -50% of their market share.
This generation, the Xbox One is selling better than the Xbox 360 did, so it looks like even with the horrific messaging and steep competition, it's on its way to being a better selling console than its predecessor... which is a win for MS for sure.
All things considered, MS is in a fantastic spot, and Sony's recovery from the disastrous PS3 is fantastic. It looks to be a healthy generation.
