Any true fans of Nintendo should ignore this thread. Its clearly bating an argument. Don't feed it.

Any true fans of Sony or Microsoft should embrace this thread. It's clearly something to call Nintendo out for.


oh come on, really if it is 3mil by the end of 2012 how is that bad?? If it isnt coming out till Nov anyway thats not even 2 full months of sales

People said the same thing about the Wii. Don't underestimate the Nintendo fanbase of which is much larger now with all those casual *spits* gamers. Check VGhartz's sales figures on what company's game is #1 from Japan, North America to the UK. It's Mario. Plus, the units being sold is wayyyy ahead of any other game. I personally won't be getting one til I see some games i'm interested in.

You quoted lilbro before me and didn't notice the similarities?

Oh please, here is another Nintendo is doomed thread. Until the September press conference on games, hardware, prices and so on, how can you make such a bold statement (where are your sources?). Nintendo is keeping a lot of information a secret as other companies would jump the wagon and copy such innovative features (smartglass anyone?). Hence, although my Wii is collecting dust as I haven't played it since 2011, it is never wise to count Nintendo out of the equation.


I'm pretty sure this thread is sarcastic.

*spits* CoD


Actually, with the Wii U getting an on par at least CoD this year, I wouldn't be surprised if non-360 CoD outsold 360 CoD this year.

Based on various analysts' results, I can conclude that the WiiU will struggle and sell only 3M by the end of 2012.

It's almost time for Nintendo to show more info on the WiiU along with the price announcement.

Can they turn this doom train around within such a short time left on their hands?

It's a Nintendo console launching with a 2D Mario. It's not going to bomb by any stretch of the imagination.

It's also got several other system sellers during its launch and launch window - Pikmin 3, Lego City Undercover, ZombiU and Aliens Colonial Marines.

You're talking complete bollocks mate.

That happens almost every year though. The PC version sells in the millions. So PC+PS3>360 version. And now we have a Vita version as well. Possibly Wii?


Oh yeah, PC sales! I always forget about them. Much like VGChartz itself.

Personally, I think we'll still get one more Wii Call of Duty, if only because Treyarch is making this one.
