Will Vita start outselling WiiU now?

Yes, you heard correct. Comparing the two in the November-January sales period the Wii U did 3 Million and the Wii Did around 3.5-3.9 Million if my sources are correct. Not to mention that it's doing almost as well without a Zelda game to launch alongside it like the Wii had. The Wii was doing so well because the best games came out one after another, Zelda: Twilight Princess, then Super Mario Galaxy, then Super Smash Bros. That was one heck of a lineup and I expect to see Wii U sales improve after the next installments in these series listed above arrive. Nobody's gonna buy a box with stupid games on it. Nintendo Land and New Super Mario Bros. U are brilliant but far from being system sellers.

Dude, Wii hasn't reached the current Wii U level until 2012. The only reason the numbers are still quite simmilar is because Wii experienced huge shortages, while Wii U, well... It sold what it had to sell first two weeks, but is pretty much collecting dust in stores right from the start. Wii U hasn't sold 3 million so far and won't even reach that level in the next 2 months. Wii was selling 8-9 times more every single week in January and February. You can't compare these consoles and their performances! Face the facts, you're trying to compare the Wii U to a massive hit that was the Wii, while in reality it's selling 50% worse than the "dead" Vita was at that point!

New Super Mario Bros. U isn't a system seller? Do you even know anything about gaming? Wii didn't sell because of SMG, Zelda or SSBB. It sold because of the novelty and Wii Sports. New Super Mario Bros. Wii sold 26.65 million copies - as much Twilight Princess, SMG and SSBB all combined, even though it was released years later. Only Wii Sports, Mario Kart Wii, Wii Sports Resort and Wii Play sold more, so considering bundling of 3 of those titles with necessary hardware, it was the second best selling regular game on the Wii - if that isn't a system seller, I don't know what is. Wii U has a New Super Mario Bros. U and still the sales are devastating. You can't compare Wii U to its predecesor in any single way, cause Wii was massive, while Wii U makes Vita sales look good.
