I don't particularly like or dislike the PS4, but I have no clue why it's selling so much. When one of Sony's top dogs said exactly the same thing a couple of months ago, that they have no clue why it's selling so much, you know something is not quite right. The price is rather high and without good exclusives, backwards compatibility, or free multiplayer, I would assume only earlier adopters -- the sort of people who camp to get the latest gadget -- would buy the console at this time. But that isn't the case, so why are people buying it? Why aren't they waiting for a better price or exclusives (as BC and free multiplayer won't ever be a thing again)?

Sony also does a great job mismanaging developers it owns and promoting projects it pays for much like Drive Club. Why was DC released when it was not ready? Also Warhawk and its lack of promotion and how quickly its team was shuttered due to disinterest from Sony. Finally there is Last Guardian is what made by janitors now?

Most of the games are animes or indie faux-retro poo poo that you can get on a pc if you didn't get sick of that type of poo poo 30 years ago.

I have no idea about this stuff, nor do I particularly care about the PS4, but I'm guessing that it's a combination of hype from E3 and everyone just assuming that the PS4 will be good and have good games soon without needing any sort of evidence. the xbox one got a bunch of bad publicity right away so people looking for a next gen console go straight for the PS4 without even thinking if it's worth it at the time.

It's honestly a good question, since the worldwide shipped numbers is slightly more than the Wii at the same stage of its life. One factor is Microsoft going through the biggest PR fuckup since New Coke, another factor is that it's got the rep for having the best version of multiplats, resulting in attracting the FIFA, Madden and CoD crowds, and a third is that the marketing is decent compared to the competition. So, while it makes sense that the PS4 should be selling well, it doesn't make sense for it to be pulling Wii numbers. I suppose it's got the advantage that Sony can keep up with demand while Nintendo couldn't, but it doesn't really explain why people are buying it now and not waiting for discounts/bundles.
