It's funny to see how Wii U actually started better than PS3 and 360 only for it to fall off later on

This thread is going to be very depressing for Wii U fans. I feel that there's simply no way the U is going to hold a candle against the Wii.

It's going to be a long time until any system does. A more interesting comparison might be to the prior generation's HD systems, and of course to the upcoming consoles. Although I'm not sure those comparisons will be too much heartening!

 

I don't think even the PS4 can touch the epic Wii sales, you see Wii appealed to non gamers, you had grannies and granddads playing the Wii for the bowling and sports games in old people's home and the mothers playing Wii for fitness  even my mother who has absolutely no interest in playing games has a Wii. There is no way she is ever going to buy the  PS4, people need to realise this when everyone has a PS4 who wants one then you have to appeal to the mothers and the grannies and the like for extra sales because these are the only ones left without the console. Once they have the Wii, the Wii U isn't going to appeal as they got that stuff they wanted from the Wii and still do. 

So my prediction is that the PS4 isn't going to reach the heights of the Wii.



This thread is a window into the past. It must be cruel for Wii u fans who've been here since it was first announced. Especally after a promising launch.

Anyway thanks superchunk for the thread. Great effort.

Now we just need someone to do next gen's and keep it up to date for two years.
