Im a total sony fanboy, but I hope not, I really want it to do good :D



I make videos that are sometimes funny I think?

Check out my Youtube gaming channel here!

It's doing terrible right now and it's going to get worse before it gets better.

Having said that, no, it's not doomed.



hmm...
Wii U is doomed....
PS4 is doomed...
720 is doomed....
3DS is doomed...

wii saviour? http://www.metacritic.com/game/wii-u/lego-city-undercover/critic-reviews doubt it will get to a million though, 500k maybe



Things are a bit rough at the moment, for sure.....but new games are releasing next week, big titles in Japan by the end of the month and we will likely know when Pikmin is releasing by then too.

Even though the numbers aren't great, a 40% increase in sales over January is mildly impressive considering literally nothing was released. It's just a matter of games, not of people not wanting it or anything like that. 3DS had the same growing pains, but look at it now.



I hope not! I'm mostly Sony but I do like Nintendo's games. I need me some Zelda and Smash in HD! I'll do my part and support the system when there is better software available, and I'll try to encourage people, but the majority of my friends are so turned off by the Wii U because of the Wii. Nintendo will have to bring their "A game" and show core gamers they mean business. Bayonetta 2 is a start, and the pro controller is nice too. Either way, they have a mountain of money to do what they can to prop the system up - I just hope they can if it comes to that.



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS


Doomed to sell less than PS3 or 360 ? Certainly.

But that wont prevent it to get some good games from nintendo and maybe others dev



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

 

I think "doomed" implies that sales will never get better. I think it's obvious that sales WILL get better, even if only slightly. The question is how much better will they get when the games actually start coming.
