I remember a similar thread asking how long it would take the Wii U to pass the Vita. That doesn't look like it's happening. I was very wrong in that thread so I'll post the opposite of what everyone expects here. |
not the same situation. No one thought the Wii U would do as badly as it was and is. PS4 and Xone are already on track to do much better. I doubt either will be doing WIi U numbers but i could be wrong
|
Wii U's launch was really really good. About half what XBONE did. It wasn't until Jan that anyone seriously started thinking the Wii U wasn't going to do too hot. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=151051

If you think doing half of what Xbone did was very good then you must think PS4 and Xbone sales are fantastic (which is cool) but thats besides the point, the point is it already had a better launch than Wii U so I dont see how it wouldnt be able to catch up to it, unless the numbers drop to Wii U levels and i dont see why it would.
|
Yes the 4BONE launches are fantastic. If my memory serves me correct (probably wrong) the top four launches in history are PS4, XBONE, PS2, and Wii U in that order. Wii U kept its launch momentum for a month selling 1.78 million in Dec. alone. Again that's a really good number for a newly launched system.
I'm not expecting the XBONE to drop to horrible numbers worse than the Wii U, but I am saying it's still a possibility. I'm only predicting that it'll happen because it's unexpected.
|
I actually think you are right about the Xbone dropping to bad numbers pretty quickly. $500 is a steep price to pay for most people considering that they don't have a killer app yet plus 2014 barely has any games coming out. Wii U selling 500K at launch was extremly good but we all know how fast that momentum can disappear when no new games are released.
|
but isnt that kind of the point? if that much people were willing to spend that much day one, why would it be so hard fetched to believe that they will not continue to do so after? I mean it already did much better than WIi U's launch and its 150 more expensive, that tells me the demand for hte console is just higher
