Technically an easy screw up for Sony/Microsoft to make is releasing a next gen system at a high price point.. they do that.. and combined with the fact that by Next Year WiiU will most likely see some great games and really be put out there on display... WiiU might get another easy win in total sells.. that being said.. I think people are trading them in.. getting what they really want.. and some might pick them up later.. I |
Everyone knows more powerful tech is expected from next gen consoles. The Wii U's 2013 so far doesn't look anywhere near to the year of the PS3 or 360 itself, so how could it hope to outshine the next gen consoles from those guys? Nintendo will shoot for the casuals the second they see 2013's sales for the newest console(s), mark my words.

Well honestly if last gen and to a point this gen proved one thing more advanced tech does not matter until later in the cycle when prices go down. If it truly did.. I think Vita and 3DS numbers would look quite different.. don't you?? With that being said a couple of things to consider..
1. Yes the 360/PS3 has a good year coming.. of course that is a double bladed sword.. because it may actually hurt the launch of the PS4/720. Why should you pay for a new system when you have one that is still having good games released.. plus most launchg titles.. are not that impressive.. anymore.. if you want gamers to shell out the bucks.. you better have more then 1 good game..
2. Everyone also knows the 360/PS3 is ending it's life cycle soon.. and more games may not be coming.. and the ones that are will probably be ports.. alot of people will want a system that has some games and will have games made for it in the future.. with the WiiU they will have this.. plus.. like I said.. it is more then likely.. the initial price sticker on the 720/PS4 is going to be so much.. that it will just make the WiiU sell that much better.. and like I said.. expect WiiU to get some really good titles next year.. this will also help..
I am sorry.. I think the PS4/720 will do fine.. but I really don't see them appealing or selling that well if the companies charge 500-600 dollars for their systems.. except to the few really hardcore gamers.. that must have the newest systems on launch.. and the fans of respective companies.. but this is all future speak.. who knows.. the companies may launch at a 400.00 price point at which they could do well... I think...

yup. People in forums asking," why get Wii-U when PS3 and Xbox 360 is cheaper?"
I ask why even get PS4 and xbox 720 then?
|
The PS4 and 720 aren't truthfully competing against their older iterations. Late adopters always go for the cheaper console when the gen is almost complete. The Wii U however is competing with last gen and will get outshined next year. I hope to god they get their own version of GTA or else well....
