We are talking about japan and ps4 didn't destroy anything there.

"PS4 has sold 1/2 of Wii U's numbers in less than half of the time" So did Wii U itself, ps4 is bellow Wii U in aligned sales.

I won't even bother with the rest, you are just repeating yourself without listening.


Yes PS4 did destroy other platforms for hardware sales last year in Japan, including Wii U, PS4 isn't at it's peak yet, because it hasn't had the best games suited for the market yet, this year will be far better, that's a fact.

PS4 isn't below Wii U in aligned numbers, it's ahead and will continue to rise based on the games we know to be coming out this year.

I read everything (not sure how you can listen to something that doesn't make a sound), took it all in and dealt with every point you tried to make, you just don't like what the facts support. Wii U isn't as popular as PS4 is in Japan or globally, which is what the sales figures show. TBH it wouldn't even matter if Wii U was beating PS4 in Japan, because it's a tiny market compared to the rest of the world.

The platform has sold over 2X as many consoles, along with nearly 2X the software globally, which is what matters in a sales debate and PS4 has a lot more games scheduled for release in Japan.

 

As far as this thread goes the topic's question is answered, PS4 will most definitely sell better in Japan, Wii U is a system on the decline in sales in Japan, while PS4 is on the rise.

BTW I'm actually going to buy a Wii U, when Zelda and Starfox come out, because I want to play those games, there are a number other titles I want to play on Wii U too, I actually consider Wii U the only 8th gen console worth owning besides a PS4 this generation, because of it's exclusives, I'm just realistic about how well Wii U can sell. It'll be profitable for Nintendo, which is all that matters for Nintendo and they have some great games coming for their install base on the platform.

"PS4 isn't below Wii U in aligned numbers, it's ahead and will continue to rise based on the games we know to be coming out this year."

Are you seriously repeating that even after admitting wii u's first year was higher. wii u was at 1.6m afer 56-57 weeks and ps4 will be a little over 1.2m on the same number of weeks.
