Funny. None of the 6 people (thus far) that selected Vita outselling the Wii U have made a post in this thread. I'd really like to know who selected "Vita sells more than 3x more than Wii U".


I did.  I personally beliee that the Wii U will continue to sell pretty good.  More importantly that this, the Vita sold about 4 million this year and that includes some very high profile releases and its launch which got the Vita quite a few numbers sold.  In 2013 where the launch lineup is no where near as impressive as before, no launch, probably no price cut, it will sell around 3 million at which point the Wii U can sell about 9 million.  Its not assured, but it's not that unlikely as you make it out to be.  I'm not hating on the Vita, its just that its sales aren't very encouraging.

Uhhhh, you're a bit confused...

Viper is calling out the people who actually think that Vita will outsell WiiU by 3 times, not the other way around.

I.....buh.......oh.  Why would he do that, they're obviously tro..............Ah yes, this is the interwebz after all, one shouldn't be surprised.

 

Let me answer on their behalf "Nintendo iz D00med, they will fail because of Wii fad/Wii U because Wii U isn't a fad and will fail cauz too expensive and too weak and PS4 will come out with more expensive console and will blow everything away.  Microsoft will win this time just like it did last time case Wii is casual and it only sold to Grandmas and half dead people and they don't count or something.  Also, the Vita haz to sell better cause grafix."

 

I tried to spell as badly as they but I I *breaks down and cries* I couldn't do it.



Around the Network

I'll answer for us educated few.

By interpolating the data on a region by region bases and factoring in the already confirmed price cut the vita will do about four times better than the Wii U in Europe and America. The Wii U will have a less then stellar western holiday for numerous reasons including the launch of other next gen systems. The Wii U will win Japan with a 2 to 1 ratio. This would be worse for Sony's handheld except for the fact PSP developers are finally switching over to Vita. Since both Europe and America are larger markets this averages to just over a 3 to 1 ratio favoring the Vita. It's as easy as math.



Wow, an aweful lot of 3x votes for Wii U.

You guys understand what that means, right? That if the Vita manages just 4.5 million sales, a rather small and very do-able increase over this year, the Wii U will have to sell over 13.5 million consoles? That the PS3 in its peak year sold 13.9 million? That the Wii in its first full year sold 16.5 million?

God help you if the Vita manages 5 million.



My God~! This is soooooo difficult to answer.....



WiiU double than Vita



Switch!!!

WiiU will outsell it by at least double. Anyone suggesting the Vita would "win" is crazy.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

This is a stupid, flamebait thread, being voted on by trolls.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

@ joe the bro. I'd love to know where you got your maths from. I can think of a few places.

Wii U will sell multiple times as many units as Vita easily, In one month, Wii U has already outsold the Vita's last 10 months.

The Wii U also has a much stronger library, and far stronger promise.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Vita will outsell Wii U lifetime.
