It would appear that Nintendo are feeling the coming heat from the PS4 and XBONE and trying everything to make it appear that they are not bothered...Going from 100% marketshare to less than 30% sure will hurt when the consoles come out!



This is hilarious. You expect both console to sale 4 million day one? Wow No basis in reality

I never said day one in that sentence!! But it is obvious going by the momentum and pre-orders that the new consoles are getting that they are going to blow past the 3.5 million sales the Wii U has in a fraction of the time!

 Momentum online is meaningless. Same thing happened with PS3 and Vita. Did they dominate? No. While its a nice dream to have it really has no bearing in reality. Gaming history isnt something you can ignore and sweep under the rug. Arent you the same kid that predicted launch titles on Ps4 would sale 6 million? Even though there is no basis for such a claim. Think what you want but you are in for a rude awakening when both consoles are sitting at around 2 million by years end.

Nope that wasn't me as that would just be insane, there are launch games on all consoles which haven't even come close to breaking that barrier! I think you need to take a chill pill, the Wii U is doing much worse than expected (no sane person would deny that) and it isn't going to get any better when it is no longer the only new console on the market!

Nintendo will no doubt be wary of the new consoles and they appear to be going down the arrogance route and we all seen how that really does not work, i.e. Sony and the PS3!

You just remind me of them because your prediction seems just as absurd.

Btw I never said Wii U sales were good, I just dont see anything that proves PS4,X1 are going to instantly to better in sales when they both cost more, offer less, and are charging for online while it is free on Wii U.

I am mainly a PC gamer so I dont hold any bias against any of the 3 and I dont have any loyalty to any of the 3. I have owned more Sony consoles than anything else except PC though.

Me for example, its going to take more than 3 year old PC ports and indie games to convince me to shell out over a thousand bucks on the thing over the next 10 years.
