Eh, it is nothing to celebrate. It should have happened a loooooooong time ago, however, it's a start.mi expect no contest in 2014.

You were expecting a no contest in 2013 too. You are really a stubborn person.

Woah, a tad harsh don't you think? I made an error on the sales front, I think everyone did. No biggie really. I do expect no contest in 2014, by that I mean more than 2mil sales difference, but if I'm wrong, I'd be happy to admit that. I hope I am, as the Vita is an excellent system (loving Tearaway BTW) and deserves better. 

 

I'm not sure how that makes me stubborn. But clearly, different opinions I guess.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Never the less both platforms still have tons to prove, before we can call them success stories.


Right now, I'm more concerned with them avoiding being failures hahah.


Well actually they are both are at the moment :( Neither is even close of hitting not even the several times revised sales target that their parent companies set :|

Done, Wii U 5 million units sold, PS4 3.5 million. (That was easy.) Now PS4, outsell that 3DS.

Pointless thread. Vita is a handheld. How is Wii-U doing against it's competition?


How is vita doing against it's competion .... Exactly.... 3ds is in beast mode now.  And Even though it had a year head start, Wii U still has more WW sales then it's competion.  Until PS3 passes Wii sales, or PS4 catches up to Wii U I would say Nintendo in general is doing pretty damn good.

Wasn't it supposed to sell 9 million in the fiscal year?

I already made a thread some time ago about PS4 overtaking WiiU in yearly sales.

It's not exactly pointless, because at the start of the year pretty much everyone expected WiiU to outsell Vita comfortably in 2013.


"pretty much everyone" doesn't care about handhelds vs. consoles lol. I'm not trying to be mean, or a jerk, I actually like your posts on VGchartz. But most people don't mix the two. Not even the website.

Well, that was Nintendo's projection. Most people could see they would never make it, even early on. Still, I don't think many expected something like 3-3.5m for the fiscal year.

Their fiscal year ends in March.  Maybe they can get closer to 4 million.

Not me!

I more or less expected the Wii U to sell poorly ever since it was announced.

That it beat vita shows something... but not a whole lot.  Maybe puts it around N64 level.

I'm surprised WiiU was even behind Vita. It was doing so well at the start of the year, and Vita never really did that well at all.

Still, it's nice to see, I hope WiiU tops Vita in 2014. Lets see if Mario Kart gives enough of a boost.
