Ok, now you guys are just mocking the Wii U... -.-



Answer is no but PS4's peak year sales will be higher than Wii U's lifetime sales. I like threads like these very much. Who would thought one day we will be seeing threads like these.

Nope. We are having a discussion about PS4's success. Why do you think people are mocking Wii U?

PS4 by the end of 2014: somewhere around 15 million

Wii U lifetime: 20-25 million

So Wii U


I don't see it reaching that high. 15-17m.


predicting under 20m...is irrational!

The funny fact is that he said that will be  LUCKY  if Wii U sell 10 million...maye he think that is more realistic 8/9 million lifetime...lol.

Well going by vgchartz analysts I will say the wii u. The wii u is making a comeback and closing the gap vs the ps4. MK8 is bringing in the casuals. Hyrule warriors and bayonetta 2 will bring in the hardcore and help them not sell 750k lifetime each. SSBU will sell a lot of wii Us. All of this combined with the fact that the ps4 is ''going in the wrong direction'' will help the wii u sell more than the ps4 globally in the US.

I had that Wii U prediction for over a year now, so I think I'll just stick with it unless there's a really dramatic change. But yeah it could possibly end up lower.


are you serious...?wii u will even or beat n64...gc sold 22m with ps2...wii u will sell 15-17 or under?....with ps4 which hasnt the dynamics of ps2 or even ps1 in a market thats bigger that 6thgen market...oh my god...wii u could be 11m by the end of 2014...recently you were saying 20-25m, what happened?under 20m predictions are just frustrating...

I don't care what Nintendo is saying now. I think they'll pull a GBA->DS, announce a "3rd pillar" console in 2016 that releases along side the Wii U, and phase the Wii U out once that picks up steam. If the don't fuck it up, that is.

I love my Wii U and still think it's the best home console out, but it's history in 2 years.
