Ps4 release a game last week and it did nothing double standards I'M Done nintendo proved that is successfully all that matters

Did Nintendo prove anything? Sony only released A game last week, Nintendo released THE game last week. Fir Nintendo's biggest IP to only add 10,000 sales is pretty meaningless. I'm actually expecting more of a boost from X.

Wait until FFXV releases in Japan, then PS4 sales will explode.

BTW there is SOME good news, WiiU only needs 40,000 more sales then last year to catch up. If it's selling 13,000 a week better that's only 3-4 weeks. Plus I expect a bigger holiday boost.

It's 69,000 behind.

239k so far this year, 308k last year.

Also it's going to drop so the gains will get smaller than this week (obviously) as for better holiday? Complete toss up as to whether that'll happen or not.

Well it was only selling 6k a week last year. Before Mario Kart WiiU was selling 9k a week this year. So 69k would be 23 weeks at that rate. However Mario Kart should perma-boost WiiU weekly sales to maybe 11k? Then it's only 14 weeks to go.

I think WiiU will be up YoY. As for the holidays, WiiU has a lot more to offer this year then last. Last year it was just Super Mario and Pikmin. This year there is Hyrule Warriors, Smash Bros, X (Maybe), SMT x Fire Emblem (maybe) and Bayonetta 2. Plus a lot of people will pick up the system for Mario Kart as well
