| Ail said: It sold 3.1 million units with no competition during 3 of the 4th quarter ( granted the 4th quarter is the biggest by far but still). How can you expect it will do better in 2014 when it will have competition the whole year. I don't think even Nintendo execs believe that and they are always overly optimistics.. |
There was plenty of competition from Xbox 360 and PS3 (and later other next-gen consoles and if you look at the entire over crowded consumer electronics market you will see that there is even more competition there), both of which had continious stream of game releases, better advertising, and lower price. I can see the Wii U doing better next year than it did this year though my estimates are fairly conservative about the system.
