why do people keep on saying wiiu had a good launch, do you guys have any idea what your talking about, for a console that is not supply constraint at 299$-349$ to sell only 456,000 units in December is not good by any means, i knew right away that those sales were bad and predicted the sales for jan to be 59,000, sure if you compare it the 360, ps3 and wii they look good but do you guys bother to check why, both 360 and wii were sold for months after launch, we all know this is fact, and ps3 was a little bit supply constrained and 499-599$ which is way to high for it sell at a healthy level.

Ps3 was also missing in it's biggest market. Even if we take the 4months of Europes sales for the Ps3 it is still at a disadvantage because the launch was not in the holiday season.

If we were to take Nov 17 2007 - March 18 2008 and add it to Ps3 numbers it might give you a different look at Wii Us sales... but of course thats flawed also. No matter what you do to compare Ps3 launch to Wii U launch its a flawed comparison that just handicaps the Ps3 anyway you look at it.

Just for giggles though. During Ps3's first holiday period in Europe Ps3 sold ~2mil... this paints the Wii U in a whole different light and I think this is a fair comparison considering the Ps3 doesn't benefit from the impressive 600k launch sales.

I don't think anybody can deny if ps3 launched WW every where at the same time like wiiu, it would be ahead by at least a million even at 499-599$



Provide proof then. It seems to be something you allways fail to do.


what proof do you want exactly a fair comparison, would  be ps3 numbers from europe in its first holiday meaning, the same time frame wiiu launched, meaning november through march 18 or when ever officail numbers were released, that would be then only fair comparsion and ps3 beats wiiu by almost 2 million WW, need more proof then that.
