Yes.it'll fade away when the big guns of PS4 comes next year.

Wii U has no 3rd party to fall back on. It's going to be really hard next year for it.

Well let's take a look at history and my predictions. First 2 numbers are Nintendo numbers.

2012- 3.06 million
2013- 2.8 million
2014- 5.1 million
2015- 6.4 million
2016- 4.8 million
2017- 2.5 million
2018- 1.6 million
2019- 0.4 million

This shows that if what I say happens.. 2015 will be peak year and 2014 and 2016 will be around the same. (I think Wii U will sell around the same as N64 but I don't want people telling me it won't happen. Right now.. if the 360 was released the same time as Wii U they would be only about 2-3 million apart and if Wii U sells at least half of what 360 did weekly and sells around the same as it did hoidays it could sell 40 or even 50 million)



2015 or 2016 I think.



With the current knowledge of releases 2015 will be the peak year, but we know nothing nothing and even more nothing about 2016 and following.
2015 will in terms of sales for sure be better than 2014 and then well - we will see.
If the questions was "Will 2015 be WiiU peak year" i would have said "maybe", but as it refers to 2014 it is a very simple "no" for me.



2015 will be the peak year. All of Nintendo's biggest franchises will be out by then.

Animal crossing, metroid, kirby, star fox, pokemon, an original zelda game these are all major franchises with no release on the wii u yet.

Maybe, but to me it seems like 2015 might be the WiiU's peak year!

Inaccurate bullshit as usual, Nintendo still have a 3D Mario like galaxy,sunshine,animal crossing, pokemon, metroid in their arsenal to unleash. Plus the announced 2015 games haven't even released yet.
