Based on the games they are getting I would assume they are mostly children. So I think they are more likely to go to PS4 than Wii U. Most, if not all, of those games are also available on PS4 and I'm sure they will have friends that have PS4s, so they will hear how great they are and probably try them out there.


The PS4 is certainly riding high on the bandwagon effect, but not necessarily because of these kinds of titles. Wii U to this point has outsold the PS4 on Skylanders. And while the Lego series generally has favored the PS4 being the best selling next gen version, the Lego Move Video game did in fact sell best on Wii U this year so far.

And ultimately it's  the parents' choice on what platform goes into the home. I'd figure they're pretty likely to go with the most affordable option as they probably don't necessarily consider Wii U, PS4, and X1 to be really that different.

Assuming interest in Amiibo is a given, the Nintendo should remain the platform of choice for this whole demographic.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016
