Nobody Won
- Nintendo is the closest to being a winner, with the phenomenal sales of the 3DS, but it's not like the 3DS broke any records. Black Friday Week in 2007, the DS sold over 1.3 million units. So the 3DS is, IMO, merely doing adequately. The Wii U, meanwhile, is still performing worse than it should. Better than previously, but 270,000 on Black Friday Week is only a bit over half of what I had hoped for a month or two ago, when the system started picking up momentum. For context, in 2007, the ailing PS3 sold over 370,000 units of hardware.
- Sony is a bit behind Nintendo, thanks to the high PS4 numbers from the European launch. The thing is, be it due to supply issues or any other reason, the system failed to break 200,000 in the Americas, and of course isn't out in Japan yet. The PS3 is plummeting almost a la the Wii did last year, and it only did well in America. As for the Vita... it was outsold by the freakin Wii. Vita's 2013 Black Friday numbers are under half of the PSP's in 2007.
- Microsoft, unless you focus on America, is the clear loser. Neither of their two systems reached half a million units sold.
