What are those huge 4 games? Mario and Donkey Kong are the only games that are definitely going to be huge.

Also Vita has around twice as many releases this fall then the Wii U. Final Fantasy X, Legend of Heroes, Gundam Breaker, Dynasty Warriors 8 xtreme, Project J versus, Tearaway, Killzone, Dragon ball Z,White album 2, Stein Gate, warriors orochi 3 ultimate and a few more i can't remember.

Wonderful 101, Disney Infinity, Watch Dogs and Assassin's Creed IV

Seriously though, he probably means Wii U Party (or whatever it's called), Zelda, Mario and DK. I don't think any one of them will be huge though. Zelda might crawl over a million, Mario will sell 3-5m eventually, DK 2-4m eventually and WiiU Party is anyone's guess

That's not funny Pezus.

Wonderful 101 will not sell well,Watch Dogs and Assassin's Creed IV everybody will buy this game in ps3 ,ps4,xbox360 and one 



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

I don't think the Wii U will ever catch the Vita. As soon as the PS4 and XBoxOne hit the market the Wii U will be dead (if it wasn't dead on arrival that is).

Just curious. Am I the only one who can see a smiley face at the end of his sentence? Also that after that sentence he says "Seriously though"? Some jokes are so obvious, I have a hard time understanding how people don't get them and respond seriously.

arent half the games you mentioned on ps3 as well???

Yep, but the same can said for the whole of Vita's 2013 line up, but that hasnt stopped it from selling twice as much as the Wii U in japan this last month despite the wii U having pikmin and the vita having zero exclusives.

Japan is the reason the Wii U won't catch up this year.

I found that sad to see a console sold poorly



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m

Anyone else except me think that the Wii U's big games this holiday won't be all that big? Sure, they'll have legs, most Nintendo games do, but I'm not seeing much of an impact for the rest of this year. I think what the PS4/XO bring to the table will greatly overshadow the Wii U's software offerings. It could have been a different story with Mario Kart or Smash Bros., but the selection in 2013 isn't going to send anyone rushing out into the streets. People will say, "I'll get that eventually," then buy CoD, Watch Dogs, or Titanfall.

Neither the Wii U nor the Vita is lined up to do much this year. That's fine, though, because it's not like they're going anywhere anytime soon. There is plenty of time for both to improve their numbers.

That's basically how I see the Wii U. "Oh I'll get that later. Oh that game looks nice. I'll wait until I have the money. If I'm going to wait, I might as well wait for price drops too. Yeah but there aren't enough games right now. Maybe if Smash bros. turns out good, I'll consider it."



Super Mario 3D World, that is all.
