I am very impressed. I feel it will be the leading console in Japan in the coming years. Just look at its launch numbers compared to other consoles!

Europe and America will be slow just like with the 3DS, until more games come, but it will be good in those areas with in the year as well.

The bar has been set rather low by the 360 and PS3 launches, so maybe I'm not too impressed.

3DS Friend Code: 0645 - 5827 - 5788

This signature exists to remind you of how E3 2013 was pretty decent across the board. That's a rare treat.

Impressed. It is pretty much sold out. There is some stock of the basic version available but deluxe is hard to find.

I'm not impressed, but not shocked either. It seems to be a medium to good launch. But who really expected it to sell better than Wii or PS2. So it has set a good start. Now we have to wait, how sales develop over the year and how the competition launches.

Swapnote/Letterbox stationery / WiiU vs. last gen and handhelds / Vita vs. Vita / the ultimate hunt / predict!

I predict Kid Icarus: Uprising will sell at least one million world-wide until the end of october 2012. Result: I was wrong.

Bet with ninjablade for 1 month avatar-control: PS4 vs. WiiU first 5 weeks global sales according to vgchartz. ninja blade says PS4 wins, I say WiiU wins.

Bet with platformmaster918 and ethomaz about PS3 overtaking Wii in total sales.

Bet with Lawlight: How many PS3 will Sony ship over 2013. He wins if that are more than 11 million, I win if it are less.

Given the fact that it is readily available everywhere during the holiday season with supply constraints of launch, the sales have to be considered catastrophically bad. I would project less than 20 million US sales LT.

Most new consoles sell out in the beginning like that, even the PS3 did with it's rediculous price tag.

Meh, it performed adequately I guess. Not a revolution like the Wii though.

SUPER NINTENDO ENTERTAINEMENT SYSTEM IS THE PAST, THE PRESENT AND FUTURE, NOW B_E_L_I_E_V_E

STARCRAFT IS THE BEST GAME EVER CREATED. F_A_C_T

awesome

Bet with pezus: If the Wii U has over 150% of the Vita userbase when the next CoD Launches, and has a synchronized launch, then it will outsell the lifetime sales of BLOPS:Declassified for Vita. 3 Months of sig control is at stake.
