| celador said: PS4 LTD: 1.143.542 Wii U LTD: 2.226.797 PS4 with a strong start to the year. Software is looking far better than Wii U's and obviously being a year younger, Sony has more room to alter the price. This was discussed some time ago, but things are looking better for PS4 now, and Wii U is stagnant. What console will sell more this gen in Japan? And if you think it will be PS4, when will it overtake the Wii U? |
PS4 will definitely sell more this gen in Japan. PS4 will have overtaken the Wii U this year.
PS4 has sold over 1.1M in it's 1st year on the market in Japan, Wii U only sold about 600K between the 8th of Feb this year and the 9th of last year. PS4 will sell at least double this year, compared to it's 1st full year on the market in Japan, simply based on the better software we currently know about, other games will likely be announced for Japan throughout this year.
By Feb 2016 PS4 PS4 will be at least at 3.4M, maybe closer to 4M by then, I think best case scenario the Wii U will sell maybe 800K between now and Feb 2016, putting it at just over 3M.
Looking towards the future I think PS4 could do at least 15M in Japan, although I wouldn't be shocked if it was closer to 20M by the end of the generation, Wii U may be at 5M.
