- You are too mean to Wii. They have never sold this little. Even their worst console, Gamecube sold 22 million in less than 5 years. We're talking about a 7 year long generation here, and their biggest hits haven't even come around. Also the market is a lot larger now. - Finally, you're too pessimistic about PS4. Given that as an expensive, 1 year late console, which was set back by bad media press and developing nightmares was able to sell 80+ million in 7 years, don't you think a dream console in every meaning of the word, will sell a lot more than that. I promise you, it will sell at the very least 20% more than its predecessor, around 100+ million even if the market would end up shrinking. Most people are dubious about its popularity over the Wii legacy, but Wii was a storn trooper, it became massivle popular for 3-4 years to dramatically fall off the cliff all of a sudden. PS4 may never be that runaway success, but at the end of the day, it will have sold much more than that due to long term success. |
As far as x1 and ps4, it's just how I feel, but the wiiu to me, will in no way, last 7 years. I don't think any of them will, but the wiiu won't even get close. I think it's gone in 4. The ps4 and x1 may last that long or longer, but maybe less too. Who knows. With the x1, I think ms will make things happen to improve its marketability. Drop the price is the easy one, but I think if they make the kinect(I hate kinect) optional, and drop the price, I think the x1 can most DEFINATELY change it's current trends... But, of course, this is all just guess work and speculation.
