Reality is setting in for Sony, I don't see them breaking the PS2 off it's throne with the PS4 for a couple reasons, The ps2 came down in price a lot and had several models. eventually getting to that 100 a pop cost. PS4 for the foreseeable future wont see major price changes, mainly because of the cost to keep an ecosystem running. MS knew this well before Sony and is better prepared for it. As for numbers, it won't break the Wii but... yeah. PS Vita is a very niche device and it's own hardware is it's downfall. Too expensive, too difficult (like the PS3) to program for. The fact is mobile games dont have triple A budgets so it makes the hardware useless. 3DS has the advantage here because most games are wrote from scratch for it so it has better compatibility and is easier to program for. Wii U has a wide arrange of supported languages and is very indie friendly. From recent reports, Wii U has been one of the easiest platforms to program for with plenty of potential.

PS4: 98
PSV: 16

Wii U: 28
3DS/2DS: 81

I'm being pretty generous from a programmers standpoint. I would love to create games for the Wii U, if I had the time between life and school
