Not for a while. I don't get how anyone can think that Destiny will close the software gap by 3m before Smash and once Smash comes out, things will even out again. Destiny will do amazing on the PS4, but not 3m in 3 months amazing, and the Wii U isn't sitting with no software sold while that's going on.

Nintendo's software until Smash won't make much of a dent, though.

I'd say sometime early next year.

Smash won't do anything. If Smash hits December, the gap will already be too big to close. You are forgetting the number of high profile 3rd party games coming October and November.



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

PS4 software is above Wii U there, by quite a bit as well. Not the best of examples.

No I am talking about Wii U and XBO software

I would say earlier 2015 if I had to make a guess.

But in the end, it all means zero

Without looking at anything I'll say that destiny week will put ps4 over.



September at the latest. Then I wonder how close they will come to doubling WiiU software by Dec. 31st.

Battlefield, COD, Assasins Creed, Far Cry, NBA 2K, Madden, FIFA, Drive Club, Little Big Planet, WWE 2K, Evolve, Dragon Age, Middle Earth, NHL, GTA5, The Crew, Project Cars, and thats just the big stuff I can think of off the top of my head. That alone has to be in the range of 20 - 25M to 0. Then there are a bunch of smaller titles I know I missed that also wont be coming to WiiU this year.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

Well if watchdogs done 1.8m in one week, then I imagine Destiny will do  at least 2m in september alone. The word of mouth is really strong based on the Beta and Actvision are throwing everything behind it promotion wise. Then theres The LAst of Us, Madden, Minecraft and Metro Redux for a fair boost in August in which the Wii U has nothing worldwide.

Smash Bros will obviously be a huge seller, but it and the other Wii U titles won't compare to the combined 1st/3rd party efforts on the PS4.

Assassins Creed Unity (3.5m)+COD(5m)+Little Big Planet (2.5m), FarCry (2.5m) and FIfa (2m), Driveclube (2m) GTA5 (2m) are gonna do 16m at least. 

 I'd be surprised if the PS4 doesn't do it in the first week of November, assuming Assasssins credd comes out at the end of October as it has in the past.
