Forums - Gaming Discussion - Colin Moriarty (from IGN) Thinks PS4 pre orders Will Outsell WiiU 1st Month Sales!

anyone remember this little article from colin 2 years ago http://www.ign.com/articles/2011/10/22/the-playstation-vita-is-set-to-succeed

I'm sorry T-bone, in your love for Nintendo you got too carried away and totally misunderstood the guy. He said the PS4 pre-orders will be more than what Wii U sold in its first month. I think you owe Colin an apology and should really do something about the topic and OP, cause it's not fair and is totally a mistake on your part.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

am i really the only one who understands under "ps4 pre-orders alone will outsell wii u in it's first month" that he meant wii u's first month or months compared to ps4 pre-orders and not ps4's first month compared to wii u's lifetime sales?


still, there are some people here on VGC that think PS4 will outsell WiiU this year life to date

That doesn't change the fact that the OP is wrong and meant to get a stir out of Nintendo fans.

i just watched it, ithink its obvious that he meant PS4 first moth vs WiiU first month

I just watched it...

He said the PS4 preorders alone (not including sales after launch) will sell the first month of Wii U total sales.

Change your title Tbone.

lol woops, thats what i meant to type. PS4 preorders vs WiiU 1st month

Wasn't the Wii U the biggest launch ever? I think the PS4 will beat the Wii U's launch but not outsell Wii U LTD until 2014

Not even close to the biggest launch ever.

I check using the charts tool and while it did worse than Wii for Nov and December of its launch year, it was nearly double the launch of PS3 and 360 separately. While the PS4 surpassing the current total of 3.46 million is certainly possible in PS4's launch, selling 5 million in a month and a half is a little much especially with competition from the Xbox One. My expectation for the PS4 is around 3.5 million for 4 weeks and a little over 4 million by January 1, 2014

It won't sell more than the Wii U in a month, not a chance.

"PS4 pre orders Will Outsell WiiU 1st Month Sales"

not "PS4 will outsell Wii U in a month."

Can anyone tell me what numbers Wii U did the first month? If it's less than a million Colin's already right.
