Yeah I've also been thinking this is possible. Wii U by my projections should end the year at around 6-7 million though. PS4 could beat that, but I don't know if I expect it to.

wrong on both.

Wrong on calling me wrong.

Or at least wrong on calling me wrong like you're some prophet without giving a single explanation as to why.

you're predictable.

stating that wii u will only sell another 3 million on the next 4 and a half months (wich include the holidays and LOTS of exclusives coming) is plain wrong. it may even sell those 3 million on december alone.

stating ps4 will sell 6-7 millions in that time period is reaaaly wrong. it's unheard of any console to even have that much systems available near launch, let alone sell it all.

stating both of those things is just double wrong.

Look at Wii U sales. This entire year it has only sold 1 million units. 1 million in 8 months. During launch when it had all its hype and lots of games, when supply wasn't an issue, it only managed a bit over 2 million units. You really think that this holiday it will sell double to triple what it did last year? Its games this holiday are pretty similar in quality and quantity to its launch lineup plus it has much greater competition. It could even have a worse holiday but that's not probable.

Everything we know says they have no manufacturing issues. 7 million is fully possible.

If it launches in October, late October, it should sell...2.5-3mil come the end of the year, maybe 3.5 max. Saying it will double that is, to me, crazy.

But there you are.


The Wii U launching in mid November managed 2.2 mil. Getting above that shouldn't be too hard.

getting above that was not the point of the topic.

Not the point of the topic sure, but I'm replying to his post which was saying something different.

first, what the other guy was saying was exactly what the topic was about.

second, I got tired of repeating it but what the wii u sold so far in 2013 is nor relevant for the purpose of predictions. it sold like shit because it had almost no releases until recently with pikmin 3. and no, the 2013 lineup is leps and bounds above it's launch lineup. at launch it had 3 exclusives + a bunch of multis that were mostly late ports. in 2013 it has the multis releasing at the correct time and more than double the exclusives. those exclusives range from huge sellers to almost certain million sellers.
