You might wanna come up with something else because I was talking of a time before amiibos existed. This is a sales sight and we mostly care about which console sells most. Ps4 is dominating and suddenly all the ps3 fans are declining.  Maybe the ps4 is satisfying them so much that they don't have time for forums.  I dunno. But what explains the big increase in nintendo fans when their sales have plummeted? 

I'm not "coming up" with anything, since everything I've said is factual...

Having said that, I said over the course of the year.  The end of 2013 started to show off some quality titles on the Wii U, but then mid-2014 hit with Mario Kart 8 and that shut up a lot of people about the Wii U's power and graphical quality of the games.  By the end of the year, everyone knew Smash Bros was coming, and it did, and it has sold well considering the small size of the fanbase.  Add to that the amiibo sales, and it's only the worst-of-the-worst reaching for Nintendo doom.  The overall outlook on the Wii U over the past year has changed in its favor, despite its lower-than-ideal sales.

At the same time, sales of the Wii U haven't "plummeted", and the PS4 isn't exactly bursting at the seams with quality titles at the moment, being easily overshadowed by both the Xbox One and Wii U.  I think Sony fans just don't have a lot to talk about right now.  They'll be back in force when their exclusives start showing up, though, and I'd particularly say Uncharted 4 is bound to bring some Sony fan peak activity around here... And it'll probably be about Uncharted 4's graphics


that makes no sense. the last year the ps4 has beasted and the wii u has been at it's lowest yet. just over 3M wii u's sold last year. last year ps4 got more good games than the wii u too. i agree that smash, kart and a few others are great games but the reality is the ps4 got 10 times more releases and by default more overall good games. i highly doubt as i previously said that Sony fans have declined now that their console is at it's best point in 10 years. and to that the ps3 is top in WW software sales. Sony in software and hardware sony is winning. 

xbox fans are very few on this site too and it's also doing a lot better than the wii u.there is definitely something up. the console that has the fewest games and the least sales has the most fans on here. the opposite to the two consoles doing well in terms of hardware and software sales (X1 and PS4).
