No, not if people keep choosing PS4 over XB1. And honestly, I feel its better for the VG industry to have *PS curb stomp MS this gen, and have them exit the home console market*. Why? Because then it forces Nintendo to pay attention/wake up and go after THAT market once again. And unlike the mid 90s, Nintendo & Sony are neck and neck in terms of $$$, Sony is no longer the super brand it once was ( would be much better competition this time around).





*or even Nintendo to exit and become a 3rd party dev, if necessary. I simply am not in favor of a 3 console market, I prefer 2)

bold: how can a company focus on a market "again" when it always focused on it?

I guess in his world Nintendo isn't making any games right now LOL.

They will drop price in the fall and pass them by November.

Stop egging him on. Stuff like this makes the world a worse place. Why do you want to see the world burn, bananaking?

No, the gap will be a lot bigger by the year end.

fine. I win if by dec 31 2014, the gap between wii u and xone is bigger than it is now (with wii u>xone, obviously). you win on the opposite.

Mario Kart and Smash Brother won't sell systems like people believe. Nintendo still isn't appealing to the major market, it needs some amazing online features/modes for those game to hit mass market appeal.

Gamers have aged.

it probably will around the holidays but at this rate the gap will not be that big between those 2 for awhile

Nope, not at all.

XBONE is pretty easy to predict, but Wii U has two huge games coming that could potentially "save" it. If the games don't push systems, then the XBONE passes it. If the games do push systems, then the XBONE probably doesn't pass it.

I'd be really happy if the wii u turned things around, and slightly shocked I guess.


You've lost out on a couple of Wii U vs Xbox One predictions already though. Is it really THAT easy to predict?
