Forums - Sales Discussion - WiiU is dominating the competition

pezus on 11 January 2013

WiiU sales: 2.4m and counting
PS4 sales: 0m
X720 sales: 0m

WiiU can sell 1 console every week and thats still more then its intended competitors are selling (PS4 and next Xbox).

WiiU can sell whatever it can until it catches its stride. Its called a headstart for a reason.

1. The Wii U won't be in the same generation as the Nextbox and PS4.
2. Even if it was, the Wii U is in a different market.

So your thread is bad and you should feel bad.

Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV (360+PS3) would outsell SSBB. I was wrong.

This Nintendo fanboy damage control is really getting pathetic.

It certainly sounds like the WiiU is unstoppable. The PS4 and XBox720 will need a price cut soon to become competitive! :)

Indeed. That logic is really annoying.

I lost a bet to superchunk. He correctly predicted that PS4 will release within 2013. I should have known that superchunk was an excellent predictor, I was foolish to bet against him.

The point is completely valid. MS launched a garbage system that broke a third of the time, but all the first year problems didn't really affect it long term. The head start did help it gain market share, however, that has helped it to this day. Nintendo probably should have launched with delux only, sold a few less but streamlined the manufacturing process and made more money per unit. Then get agressive when their real competition for the next 5 years is launched in the fall.

The Wii U is in the 8th generation, just like the Nextbox and PS4 will be. Graphics aren't everything. If a console was released that was 100 times as powerful as the PS3, would it be in the 12th generation? No, it would still be in the 8th.

You can't reason with him, just let the haters be!

Amazing logic, because its true :)

Xbox gets MGS5, FF15 (Versus), and Kingdom Hearts 3. All previously thought to be a PS exclusive.

An early sign that times are changing for the better.
