The Wii U launched 15 months earlier.  You know the ps3 has outsold the Wii U in Japan?  Ah so what if it launched 6 years earlier.  That's your logic.  Fact is launches aligned ps4 is winning and catching up fast.  

And as of right now ps4 has console gaming in Japan on lock. 

After how many deals and how much third party support? I really didn't want to get involved but this has been annoying me for a while now. 1st year, Launches aligned, everyone called Wii U abysmal. Do you want to know something about that? PS4 sold less. Launches aligned 365 days. PS4 sold LESS. Limited edition consoles, a new game almost every week, a limited edition DRAGON QUEST console. Still was below Wii U's abysmal launch year. Wii U had little to no support after it launched and yet for an entire year launches aligned it was ahead of "the beast", the "fastest selling playstation". What I'm amazed with is withthe little support the Wii U has and with its terrible performance how it managed to do better than the PS4 in its first year. I could bring up a lot more but I'm done with this convo.



You need to look at the facts. 

 

Launches aligned the Wii U had 2 holidays in the first 12 months vs 1 for the ps4. It's not a fair comparison.  

But even despite that the ps4 is ahead now launches aligned even with 1 holiday less.  

 

The ps4 is doing a lot better than the Wii U and the launch aligned gap will grow a lot in 2016. 


And in terms of support the Wii U has had much bigger exclusives than the ps4. It shares most of its games with the psv and ps3. 

 

The biggest actual exclusive was bloodborne.  Wii U has had a lot more exclusives bigger than that.  That's why it's obvious the ps4 has a bright future and the Wii U doesn't.
