they said the same thing about ps3 vs wii , ds vs psp , 3ds vs vita.

OT: NO

price will stay the same maybe next year a price cut if not met expectations

 

• More power (irrelevant)
• More game support (irrelevant)
• Blu-ray (irrelevant)
• Better looks (irrelevant)
• Cheapest Playstation console ever (spot on)
• No name confusion (spot on)
• Sony consoles can generally sell more at a higher price than Nintendo consoles (spot on)

WiiU is nowhere near being a DS, Wii or even 3DS. It's seeing the lowest weekly sales of a new console in recent memory. I think people are kidding themselves if they think WiiU doesn't need a price cut. The question is if Nintendo are willing to take the loss or not. With no price cut they will get demolished, especially early next year.

i never said wii u doesnt need a price cut. what do you mean by nowhere near ds,wii,3ds ? it is a console adn nintendo knows how to sell them even if they fail like they did with 3DS they proved it but yes that still doesnt mean anyithing only time will tell ..and if people are being silly (i mean hardcore gamers) they think the PS4 will demolish everything..only hardcore fans will buy it ,mostly..I think after the launch of PS4 the PS3 will outsell it just like the Wii outsells Wii U right now. the same thing happend with PS3 vs PS2.(no need to mention x360) 

PS4 is too hyped right now. it certainly looks like sony did everything right but it is a big market and people buy console not only for gaming(netflix,blueray etc..)

I cant wait to see what will happen

That wasn't directed at you specifically. You said the price would stay the same, though.

You also said: "they said the same thing about ps3 vs wii , ds vs psp , 3ds vs vita." as if the WiiU vs. PS4 would be a repeat of those situations. That is about as likely to happen as Edward Snowden being allowed into America. Even if PS3 will outsell PS4 for some weeks, that is not comparable to the Wii vs. WiiU situation because PS3 is seeing much stronger sales than Wii has done for several years. You have to factor in that the price difference between PS3 and PS4 isn't that high. PS3 goes for $269 to $299 I think in America. I see a price drop lowering it to perhaps $229 or so. But again, PS4 doesn't need to outsell PS3 to outsell WiiU.

I said that simply because people seem to always repeat themselves for years now "sony will beat nintendo" there is no other option ever(I think thats totally out of control and crazy) so thats my counter argument lol evrything seems to be a fact and there cant be no other way there are no options never ever. even you say "Even if PS3 will outsell PS4 for some weeks" you say this as it is almost a fact...why weeks ? why not for some time or months or days if you want. thats my point. you probably meant something else maybe im mistaken i dont know im just saying to prove my point but its out of control adn everyone needs to calm down take a deep breath and realize price is not everything... the market is big and no one knows anything.
