Forums - Sales Discussion - PS4 has overtaken WiiU Worldwide

I really hope DK gave Wii U a huge bump for the week, cause this thread is premature. We need numbers, not assumptions!

Congrats to PS4 regardless. The king has returned.



Around the Network

OP has to consider the possibility of Donkey Kong driving the Wii U's sales into the 200k region for the week -. --- -

These forums are going to be real hard to come to now....

Wii U deserves its struggles though. Nintendo has got to get it together.


Maybe not.  The Sony fanbase is like a grizzly bear.  You can fight back but they will only attack more viciously.  If the Nintendo/Microsoft fans play dead, there's a chance the Sony fans will grow bored and go eat salmon from the river or steal honey from bees or something.

It's a new generation. The Sony Grizzlys have gotten their hands on the new poking stick technology. Playing dead only makes them poke the bodies.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I just wonder, what lesson will Ninty learn from this .... ?



PS4: 5.84 millions, = 5.8
Wii U: 5.76 millions = 5.8

Technical tie, this is not over yet. We have 2 new contenders, nintendo versus Sony, in the 90's it was SEGA and Nintendo.

Good for them, I guess?  It's not surprising to me that "Hey, a console manufacturer is selling consoles!".  Lets make posts about the obvious to let everyone else that already knows, that we know too.

I guess I just don't see the reason to get excited over it...even if it's really just about the fact that it just steamrolled by a year older console, and allows certain people to flex their fanboy e-peens.  It's still not something to get excited about as the "U"'s sales have been pretty sluggish from the get go.  "Hey look, we just ran past that paralyzed kid and won the race!  Lets celebrate!"   =p

/chuckle

Go look at the front page.

I will never understand people that come here to whine about people talking about video game sales.


I'm not whining about video game sales talk.  I'm poking fun at people that constantly make posts to state the obvious and get excited over things that aren't worth getting excited over, such as "beating up the disabled kid on the bus".  Sorry bub, go ahead and celebrate.

I'm an Xbox fan, hardly celebrating.


Holy shit, what a twist!

OT. Congrats! I'm glad. And one thing I've learned over last year and this year, whatever you think Wii U will sell, think less. You're overestimating it. I predicted around 7 million sold ending 2014, and  then 21st March.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Wasn't there a thread where we predicted when the PS4 would overtake the WiiU? Would like to see the results for that.

Here :)

I wish we can find an older thread. That was after the record breaking launch. I think I remember threads where the majority thought it wouldn't be sooner than 2015. I'm more interested in seeing those.


I found this: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=168911&page=1 

and this: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=158092&page=1

and this: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=164065&page=1

Huge props to the people who predicted correctly all along.


Thank you so much Talal, only checked the first thread and just the first page alone is a fucking goldmine already! that's hours of entertainment! Ohh and as usual Zero delivers!
