I don't think Nintendo and Sony really even view themselves as direct competitors anymore. 

Since there likely isn't going to be a successor to Vita, that's out. Can't see Sony pursuing dedicated handheld gaming after that flop, heck even Nintendo has swallowed their pride and acknowledged smartphones now. 

Wii U isn't even trying to compete with the PS4. 

They're just two ships quietly passing in the night. 

Sigh, wii u will always be competing with ps4. they're both dedicated gaming machines.

Walk into any EB or any retailer and try to talk a PS4 buyer out of buying one in favor of a Wii U. You will get laughed out of the store. 

They're competiors about as much as a movie like Cinderella is in direct competetion with the next Fast & Furious movie. 

The days of SNES vs. Genesis or Playstation vs. N64/GameCube ... those days are long since over now. Sony's game division head is even openly stating he's rooting for Nintendo to do well. MS' XBox twitter ran a poll during last E3 asking people what their favorite Zelda game is. LOL, the times they have changed. 

Nintendo going mobile is like the fall of the Berlin Wall. The end of the Cold War is not far off now.
