The WiiU will be $199 by then....

Trade in? Heh, no.

I agree that it's possible the wii u might see a reversal of fortune but I can't see the ps4 going anywhere... Xbone maybe, but I think if anything xbone owners will be picking up a ps4 in the next year or 2....many people I know who have supported ms in the past seem more interested in ps4 at this stage.

Will it be around by then? People may want to, but they may not have a chance anymore. We'll be stuck with our PS4's and Xbones :(

Why would we....? What will the Wii-U have in 2016 to warrant that?

Amazing reasoning right there, beware with your brain or it can burn!

Why? will there be a sudden rise in demand for dead consoles? (I predict nintendo will have discontinued the wii U by 2016)

The Xbox ONE is in last place and will clearly will never surpass the Wii U att his rate.

If the PS4 vs. Wii U situation ends up like the PS Vita vs. 3DS, when it comes to Software, then with today's media & social media, it can easily end up with the same results, where there willbe people who will buy the Wii U who would never had done such a thing before, and there will be other people to sell in their current system (FOUR or ONE) to buy a Wii U.

The Wii U does get the definitive version of multiplatform games (at least in features and gameplay & levels & story) and the Wii U does have Backwards Capability for people who avoided buying a Wii like I did, and the Wii U has way more interactive controls and the Wii U has been getting some nice exclusives in a big volume for a 8th Gen Home Console, like X (XenoWhatever) & Fire Emblem X Shin Megami Tensei & Bayonetta 2 & Mario Kart 8 & The Wonderful 101 & ZombiU & so fort (for an 8th Gen Home Console, that's impressive). Plus the Wii U has True Panarama View entertainment to purchase whenever and does a more better job utilizing such Apps as Netflix & so fort, then anything I have seen thanks to that GamePad controller so you can stream lets say Hulu Plus with the TV only showing the movie, while the player and all, is displayed all on the GamePad as not to be in the way of the view of the movie on the TV, plus off screen play for people who have to share the living room TV to get a lot more gaming done.

Nintendo releases their Home Consoles 6 years apart anyway, and they never discontinued the GameCube.

@conegamer

I'm talkin' bout people selling their system to buy a cheaper system.

@theprof00 & celador

It happen with the 3DS & Vita because of the first several years & beyond software situation. so i figure the same could happen in the Home Console market, if the situation for games ends up the same way, like it did with the Handheld market.

Not as good as your earlier prediction Kaizar.
