@Vic Yes "usually" portable systems sell more. Definitely not going to be the case here. The 3DS will surpass the PS3 soon in Japan, while the PS3 is looking to keep its lead over Vita for a very long time. The U already has what the Vita needs desperately(MonHun) and of course Mario. The WiiUs launch is looking to be massive, especially in Japan.


I really don't think so.... we'll see.

Vita numbers were great, imo, twice the PSP's.

That's why.


WII sold 370k frist 2 days in Japan compared too Vitas 320k and early indications are WIIU launch is going to be a larger.

"How long will it take the WiiU to pass the PS Vita?"

It hasn't yet?  Oh, then I don't know... a fortnight?



Farsala on 05 October 2012

Either within the 1st month, or not for awhile. If Nintendo ships enough for first month then it can pass vita. But after the first month it is likely demand will drop, and the Wii U would need more software titles to drive sales after January. I do not believe Wii U will keep selling as well as it does the first month, it might even get down to current Xbox 360 sales or lower if their isn't enough software and marketing.

Man, not to sound like an asshole. But a lot of Nintendo fans got REALLY arrogant, couldn't help but smile at how much they overestimated Nintendo.

FishTacos with the GOAT prediction.
