I forgot to add, amazing Vita numbers considering, over double WiiU numbers this quarter ...

Given they both seem to be in a similar state it's an interesting comparison.

Shipments =/= sales. WiiU was massively overshipped in Nintendo Q4 2012. And since it was selling very poorly, the stock was never really moving hence why the very low shipment numbers. Let's also not forget that vita is on it's 2nd year so it was definetly not overshipped. So no, the comparison is pretty irrevelant. If wiiU would hypothetically stay on vita sale levels in 2014, then we would see quarterly shipments of around 800k since it wouldn't be overshipped unless retailers are complete idiots lol. 

Well it's PSP + Vita anyway so it was an invalid comparison in the first place, Rol corrected me.

Still, WiiU is doing under 100k a month this past quarter (Actual sales), so no it wouldn't be shipping 800k.

Well, I was assuming that the vita shipped 800k with your post. What I ment by that is the wiiU would be capable to ship whatever the vita did last quarter if it wasn't for the massive overshipments of Q4 2012. But anyways, were already seeing an increase in sales for wiiU after the price cut, so I highly doubt it will ever go back down to 20-30k/week in it's lifetime except when Nintendo's next home console is released of course.



Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M
