Do you think the PS4 will sell more by 2015 than the Wii U for the entire generation ?

Could be more than possible if we consider Wii U will struggle to even reach 17M, and based on actual PS4 sales,  ( around 12M )  PS4 domination and PS3 sales on it's first holiday ( 4,9M , PS4 cant do less) , 18-19M PS4 sold by 2015 is more than possible


when did ps3 4.9m first holiday?

it did about 4m the frist two holiday seasons according to vgc

 

where did u get ur numbers from

Oh yeah you are right, it did 4,4M

 

 

Is the title better now ?


4.15m first holiday

4.1m second holiday

to be exact (if we use vgc numbers)

 

maybe u got some shipped numbers form sony. that could be 4.9

 

 

and ps4 doing over 4m form oct - dec is a given. that would not even be as much as the nov- dec launch (4.2m)

5m is in range, too but i dont see much higher numbers...

5.5m maybe, but not 6m+


For you , holidays start when ? Because i took numbers from second week of october to first week of january 2008 ( first days of january being counted by the chartz as 2014 sales )

 

 

I dont know, i would think that is disappointing in such position  if PS4 was selling only 1M more than PS3



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

If the PS4 makes it to 25M by the end of 2015 then yeah. That's my guess. It's hilarious all these type of predictions. Who would have guessed last generation.



I see ps4 doing 18-20M (if Sony delivering enough stock) by jan 1, wiiu ltf should be 15-25M depending on smash and how long ninty keeps support (for me it will be 20-22M range at the end because I like Ninty and when price is bellow 200 a lot may decide to have it as secondary console, to bad it don't have scale to go under 150 and 100 healthly). So for me it's a very small chance that ps4 will outsell wiiu ltf by jan, maybe by june don't matter how long it sells and smash or zelda effect, maybe ps4 could be at 25M in June.

oct 5th - jan 3th

oct 4 weeks

nov 4 weeks

dec 5 weeks

 

i wouldnt call 3m ps4 december sales disappointing in its first year

ps3 high was 4m in the slim version launch year

and beat the 3m mark just 3 times

 

a 5.5m first year holiday will guarantee a 100m+ lifetime gen for the ps4 (if nothing extraordinary happens - sony going bancrupt or anything)



With the 34 million of the N64 and 22 million of the Game Cube. Nintendo still managed to make a profit, selling on average 5.5 million console per year over the duration of the 5th and 6th generations. The Wiis arrival in late 2006 went on to sell more console systems in 3 years with 60+ million than the N64 and Game Cube sold over a decade between the mid 1990s up to the end of 2006.


Wii U will continue to turn a profit for Nintendo despite its slow start and it should sell some where between the Game Cube and N64s sales. 30 million Wii U sold for this generation is a fair prediction.

Depends, PS4 next year will sell anywhere between 15 and 20 million. It will have a price cut next year.  Wii U will have a struggle to reach that latter number in its lifetime. It's gonna be close I think.



Wii u can reach 11M this year.
Next, is expected to be bigger than this year. I would say 5 to 6 million, and also the top Wii u year.
2016 will be like 3 to 4 million. The other years will depend whenever they release the sucessor.
I expect like 25M.
Ps4 wont reach this in 2015.

lol are you saying PS4 will not hit 25 million by the end of 2015, becuse ill be give or take 40 million by then.

25m for PS4 is about march/april.

Are you expecting PS4 to sell 13.6M in 5-6 months?



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

I don't think so. I believe the PS4 will sell 15 million, give or take, next year and I can't see the Wii U stopping at that number or below, I think it will go on to sell somewhere around 18-19 million before it disappears.


I think he means the LTD for PS4. If this year we end with 16M LTD, pretty reasonable, it's expected that in the next year PS4 sells around 15M so it would reach a good 31M LTD. With the current trends, a really  hard  number for the Wii U.
