Are people really saying more than 1 year? PS4 could overtake the Wii U in less than 20 weeks after launch. Xbox One maybe a year or so.

I see. Games and exclusives. My prediction is that many people are going to be disappointed by the boost the hardware gets. People are maybe expecting too much.

i can't wait to see the PS4/XboxOne sales go down after the holiday season.

Still waiting lol.



Around the Network

PS4 around 4 weeks.

Xbox One around 40 weeks.

I was actually wrong since the Japan launch will put PS4 ahead of Wii U in the final week of February.

Forever because it's not happening lol especially not now. Someone get the "I told you so" champaign ready for next year.

I knew Nintendo had a relaunch planned. I still predict a Wii Fit U and Super Mario 3D World Bundle. Do that and market the hell out of this, and they'll literally outshine the competition. Always let them think they're ahead before you strike and strike hard.

The Nintendomination is has started, and it shall spare no casualties.

Sony: We have one million pre-orders.

One for each of our troops.

Nintendo: We have a Hulk:

3.6 million starting install base.

New Wii U Zelda Bundle + New 2DS + Pokemon X/Y + Free online = Still cheaper than the Xbox One.

New Wii U Zelda Bundle + Free online = $100+ cheaper than the PS4.

Vita: I'm so glad I finally got a price cut! :) Now my sales can finally pick up!

Nintendo: Lets release a new 2DS for $70 cheaper than the Vita on the same day as Pokemon X and Y, the latest edition to the most powerful handheld franchise in the world and the second best selling video game franchise of all time, because WHY THE FUCK NOT?

Vita: FUUUUUUUUUU-!!!!!

I rest my case.


How is that I told you so Champagne?


I was dreaming as much in this post as you are with Infamous' sales.



As of now: I think Sony can do it in like 3 weeks, as for MS, maybe 8 to 10 weeks.

The same amount of time it took the ps3 and xbox to outsell the wii.

Or just about the same it took the "true next gen portable" to outsell the 3DS.


You do the math, I'm not sure about when it happened ;)

THIS.


I miss Zero's horrible predictions...

BTW where's that "scalation" for third party ports on Wii U? oh wait a minute...



People saying march, Ps4 will prob do it end of February when it launches in Japan right?



This thread was great, so much fail and doubt that it's laughable... most of those people are nowhere to see, or blaming PS fans of being bullish.

Azzanation: "PS5 wouldn't sold out at launch without scalpers."

PS4: 3 months
Xbox One: maybe a year, maybe never.
