Yeah, Wii U had a lot of pre-orders too.

Sign me up under the "Do not care" category.

Ya, better to have weak pre-orders

If the Wii U started strong, then the obvious key to success must be a weak start.

 

This IS a sales site right? So we SHOULD care about pre-orders shouldn't we? Of course a lot can happen up until launch, and the time following release. That's a given. We should still care about pre-orders though, if there is little/no demand to boot, that would be a truly bad sign.

I'm saying preorders mean bunk to evaluating the sustainability of sales for anything.

And I fully expect both consoles to launch well.
