Guess the text i quoted was wrong, Please close the Thread

Well thats not very good :/ also I do think Reggie is wrong about the competition hitting a wall like Wii U mainly because theres still an insane amount of demand for at least the PS4 (can't really say the same for Xone). Even if the PS4 hits a wall it won't be untill it sell's like 10 million units.



PSN: extremeM

PlayStation Vita Japanese Software Sales (Media Create Physical/ Famitsu Digital)

Current number is 4,110,119. I think 40K was from the UK, so I wonder where the rest came from.



The last part of that interview cracked me up. "Are you worried about shortages at Christmas time" and Reggie is like "Seriously bro are you trolling me"



HAS to be an old figure, if they're only at 4m now that means they've shipped 550k for Oct + Nov (Including Black Friday).

And sorry Reggie, 4m milestone after a year shouldn't even be spoken about, it's an embarssment.

Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime toldForbes the exciting news about the future of the Wii U.

"The interesting thing there is, 4 million units is a milestone when you look at today's market that includes tablets and smartphones. The competition will hit a wall in production and demand just like we did when we launched the Wii U a year ago. So the truth is to be honest that we are ahead of the game and have the advantage." Fils-Aime said. "So, in the end, it's our responsibility to show consumers how much fun you can have, because in the end, this is an entertainment business, and we think we've got stellar entertainment to make the consumer smile."

I just skimmed through that article, couldn't find any mention of 4 million, or any part of that quote you provided. Please explain.



He's saying 4 million pretty generally, it could be slightly above like VGchartz has it now



yes because when people quote a number they give the EXACT number.

Also where in the article does he say 4million I can't see it.
