If this thread from earlier this year is anything to go by, Nintendo's not in any particular trouble:

Let Wii U be a hard-learned lesson.



The fact that this is even up for devate is pretty sad to be honest, when a NewPS4XL can cause more excitement than your entirely new system, you must know that you've fucked up horrendously as a company.



I'm now filled with determination.

The quote you provided doesn't even provide any firm data. I'm sure Sony would "like" to have some of the Wii audience, who wouldn't, but there's no firm data given there and it's a fairly wishy-washy statement. 

If Sony has any success gaining any notable portion of the Wii userbase, they should have little problem selling more than 150 or even 200 million given the audience they already had and while the PS4 is selling well it's not selling so far ahead of say the PS2 to suggest that.

What we're seeing is overall console sales for this gen are way down ... and that's largely because a big chunk of the Wii-only audience isn't there anymore.

Last gen we saw 105 million Wiis, 85 million for 360, 86-87 million for PS3 ... this gen is not going to be even close to that.

PS4 + Xbox One are far, far ahead of the PS3 + Xbox 360.  Like 20M ahead, or so.  You're telling me those are all new gamers?  That because everyone who owned a Wii--and their kids--were all hipsters, none of them has moved on to the PS4?

That doesn't even make sense.

But they're not ahead at all when you factor Wii into the equation and leave Wii U for this gen. Obviously a lot of those gamers have moved on.

If Wii owners were really sticking around in huge numbers then this generation shouldn't have much trouble selling 250+ million consoles, but it's no where close to being on track for that even with very good PS4 sales.

Obviously a lot of Wii owners did not return to console.

Apple/Google are taking those customers, they are the stone wall Nintendo has run into, I'm sure Nintendo would love dearly to go back the days when Sony/MS were the only two they had to worry about.

This generation will probably end up around 180-190 million, though even that will probably be somewhat inflated by PS4 owners double dipping for a PS4.5. But that will be well short of last gen. It's easy enough to see if this hypothesis is true or not -- simply let the generation play out. It will become evident sooner or later.



Over the course of 6 generations Nintendo's per generation average sales for home console hardware has been 47 million. Will NX be above average or below average?

A console is made for games, PS4 neo becoming the new basic PS4, it will have far more games than NX , so in fact, more relevant as a games console.



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

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

What are you talking about?  That's almost as much as the Wii + 360 + PS3.  What are you doing?  



lol... neo is a rumour and all we know about nx is its release date and that it will have a port of zelda... this topic is pointless right now

I don't get it. What's the point of this thread? It seems like you made this thread to make yourself feel better about the NX.

EDIT: Oh, just read the first line, you are lol.

With Nintendo who the hell knows?
It could be... it also might not be.

Nintendo arnt the most consistant of the bunch.
We dont even know what the NX is yet. It could end up being a Wii U 2.0.
In which case the PS4 Neo would be more revelant.
