Forums - Sales Discussion - XboxOne, WIi U, PSVita. Who will pass who?

 

I remember when some people swore up and down that Wii U would have passed Vita by holiday 2013. Well its April and there is still about a two mil difference between the two and it doesnt seem like WIi U will catch up anytime soon. Xone is about 2 mil behind WiiU some here are saying it will pass it in the summer. 

 

What say you? When will Wii U finally catch up to and pass Vita? Can it do it? When will Xone catch and pass Wii U? 

I think earliest Wii U could catch Vita is the holiday season. Xone will get close but be fought off by the combination of MK8 and Smash Bros. I think both games will give WIi U a decent boost and be enough for it to eventually catch Vita and keep ahead of ONE. I dont really see anything coming out big for Vita or One this year. But maybe e3 will surprise.

As I remember correctly... WiiU has 2 major games coming out and the Vita doesn't have anything close to that so if the wiiU doesn't pass the vita by the end of holiday 2014, I will buy a vita and never sell it ever again! (Provided the Oled version is still in store)

X1 also has a good chance of passing the wiiU, I just don't know when... I was thinking maybe during TitanFall but that didn't do it so maybe during Watch_Dogs but I feel like that might push for ps4 sales than X1 so idk, we will see

Xbox isn't doing horrible like the other two platforms you mentioned, but to entertain the thread I'll just say that the Wii U will never pass the Vita and the Xbox One will pass both of them by the end of 2014 or early 2015.



Vita is doing well in japan, if it stays ahead of wiiu, its only cuz of that.

X1 will surpass wiiu, but my guess is in 2015.

Vita vs WiiU isnt clear. Vita will have a way longer life span, but WiiU might pull through with much bigger impact software.

Definitely going to remember that.

OT: I expect the Wii U to pass the Vita by Holiday 2014 and X1 to pass the Wii U early 2015. After Halo 5 at the latest.

There is no way the X1 is gonna pass the Wii U in the summer, sales are gonna drop more and more the further we get from Titanfall launch.  Wii U sales gonna see a big boost when MK8 comes out.

Vita has lots of games in Japan. That one market it's actually doing pretty good in. I think Japan alone will keep it above Wii U. XBONE will probably pass Wii U around the end of the year. It's so hard to predict though since smash and kart are wild cards.

I ment end of holiday 2014 (so December 31 2014 to be exact), but if it does, I shall keep my word! You can Mark it!

Vita may very well end up ahead of Wii U in the long run, but I'll go ahead and say that Mario Kart/Smash Bros pushes Wii U ahead of Vita by the end of the year.

As for XBO passing Wii U...I'll go middle of next year or so, barring a massive price cut/some unexpected big name title releasing for the system this year we haven't heard about yet.



Look, 2015 could be horrible for the Wii U, but the games we are getting on wii u in the second half of this year are going to make the wii u epic in 2014 and the sales are gonna boost like crazy. Does Vita or Xbox one have as many heavy hitters coming in 2014 as the Wii U does? I'm seriously asking those that are informed about xbox/vita games are the 2014 games comparable in terms of impact to the 2014 wii u games that are coming?
