@bold how much more do you think France/ Germany Wii U sold compared to Vita?

The Spanish (and Portugese) gap cannot be ignored in terms of total Europe sales. It would be hard for Wii U to topple that with the other countries.

The difference between Brazil and Netherlands/switzerland is that Brazil is a much bigger market. Brazil/Mexico/ China are decently big markets and surely have Vita leads.

@italics even if this shipment gap is true, it would only point to Europe as being stronger for Vita then Wii U due to the vast difference in sales in the US.

1. A lot more, as in a bigger gap than between Wii U and Vita in Spain. The German software charts show the top 100. It should be clear that a system that can't even get one title into such an extensive list is not in good shape at all.

I am not saying that the Vita doesn't have leads in Brazil, Mexico and China, but the Wii U has big leads in three of the biggest markets: USA, France, Germany.

2. I haven't done the maths to verify your assertion, but it's very much possible that the Wii U can be ahead of the Vita worldwide by doing better in the USA, but worse in Japan and Europe. The Vita should be ahead in Europe, but it's obviously behind in the whole of America, and notably at that.

1. Trick question: http://www.latribune.fr/technos-medias/20150210trib562875d47/jeux-video-retour-a-la-croissance-pour-un-marche-francais-tire-par-les-consoles.html

So no the gap is not bigger then Spain.

Ryng said Vita sold 60k in 2015, so the sales are Wii U 742k and Vita 510k. Now France is much more Nintendo savy then Germany so the gap would be smaller there.
