Jay520 said: I don't believe comparisons to the HD consoles are a good metric for judging how well the Wii U is selling. It's well known that the HD consoles had relatively terrible launches. They didn't reach mass market price until 2-3 years after launch and didn't peak until their 5th & 6th years. On the other hand, the Wii peaked in it's 2nd year and afterwards dropped off considerably. If the WiiU has a similar launch-heavy life, then it's launch is of much greater importance than the HD consoles. It's launch has to be considerably greater than the HD consoles for success. If not, it needs to have HD console-like legs towards the end, and I don't know if that's going to happen. |
It isn't at mass market price though like you said. That would be 250.
