I may be mistaken, but is it really fair to compare sales of the N64, GC, Wii, and Wii U? I just feel like it's unfair to compare sales from the mid to late 1990s to the early to mid 2010s. I believe console sales should be compared to their immediate competition, and not past generations. |
Even if we were to do that. It doesnt make Wii U look better. It looks just as bad if not worse

You're totally right, but I think that is a more interesting discussion worth having. I may be missing something here but I just don't see the point in comparing Wii U sales to N64 sales. I just feel like the two are completely unrelated.

You bring up an interesting point... I mean after all, no console can be doing well if we compare it to the PS2. The point I was trying to make is that the Wii should not be directly compared to the Wii U, because its performance was unusual and unlikely to be repeated. Comparing the Wii U to the Xbox One and PS4 is more appropiate yes. However, when determining if the Wii U is doing good or not, its performance should be compared to Nintendo's average performance.
