| Scisca said: I was first to call it that Vita will outsell Wii U in the period January - September. We know nothing about the Christmas period for these consoles, so we really can only guess, but I think that this Christmas will belong to PS4 and X720. Vita should also get some sales, as it will finally be cheap, while Wii U will be stuck in the dead land. Much more expensive than Vita, much weaker and underhyped compared to PS4/X720. My guesses: Vita sells more Jan-Sept. Christmas period is for the taking, Nintendo will most likely release so heavy hitters, but they will be competing with two different beasts, so Vita may quietly continue to outsell Wii U. |
doubt it. While they should have good launches, fact is, price remains king. Wii U delayed launch until 2012, hoping for PS360 fatigue, and even those old consoles are still selling, mainly due to their lower cost (ps3 & 360 had 2-3 game bundled w/console FFS). Wii U will have high profile games and a price drop (guessing Nintyland preinstalled) to combat those new consoles, and should win the holidays.
