You do know that last gen when Wii was at 40 mill.. PS3 was at 18 mill right.. nothing is set in stone.. And also this 3DS: 58,8 mill. Vita: 13,6 mill. Dont know if you just like to talk.. but I have seen all generations.. and if theire is one thing that is a fact.. is that most people buy consoles like other electronic producs.. and only a litle handful of gamers read and talk videogames like we do.. When "normal" people buy a console (or theire parents do) mostly they have seen some in tv or media.. They look at whats infront of them.. what it offer/games.. and whats the price is.. (like most people dont have special preference when they get a new phone.. dvd recorder.. or a dish washer) If you still think Sony have all future videogaming safely in a lock.. ok.. be happy.. (rest my case) |
Why would any consumer apart from a diehard Nintendo fan by a Nintendo console over a PS4 though?
The only time Nintendo beat Playstation in a console race was when they came up with a wild card that up-ended the whole industry. Such things are not easy to come by and can't just be conjured up on demand, as evidenced by Wii U's failure.

You don't. The Wii U failed because it is a bad mass market product, not because it is a Nintendo product. The NX will be a good product, so it will sell well. It'll be console redefining, so it'll sell very well. Unless this constroller isn't fake. |
How can you conclude that NX will be a good mass market product when you don't know what it will be?
Frankly, I don't think it matters how good it is. At this point I think consumer interest in Nintendo hardware has been irreparably damaged. A new console from them could convert lead to gold and it'd still struggle to reach 20 million. Wii U was their Saturn and NX will be their Dreamcast.
