Can PS4 overtake WiiU in the US by the end of the year?

so its roughly 350k more consoles sold than Wiiu. Its possibly forsure. if sony wanted to they could, but as with whats mentioned in every thread. Depends how much sony ships

Come on dude. Sony can make more than 800k a month. Stop falling for false demand.

I remember when everyone was claiming Nintendo was causing shortages when they couldnt meet over 1.5m a month in demand but Sony(A major electronics maker) is given a free pass when they cannot make 800k a month.

Doubtful it will overtake the Wii U as demand has already fallen below Wii U in weekly sales.

Shortages are a very real thing. You realise they could get more factories making PS4's, but they don't do it for short contracts ect, it's a massive operation. So they could easily start putting out an extra 1m PS4's a month now, but what about next year when sales drop because it isn't the holidays???? They'll be producing too many PS4's.

This is exactly why Nintendo never upped production of the Wii during its heyday.
