1) I love your name. Need the avatar to match it though.
2) It already is. WiiU is over a million sold and MSony both stand at zero considering they haven't launched. (probably already mentioned tho)

Your pointless, petty bickering is pointless and petty.

Firstly. Look at what youre arguing about. The Wii Remote and PS Move. Tell me what it has to do with the thread, other than making you feel a little better about yourself.

Secondly. Look at what STAGE was saying. He said Nintendo have the casual market on lockdown. Theyre now taking on (trying) Sony and MS for the more core gamer. YOU CANT ARGUE AGAINST THIS. Its a fact. Its obvious to anyone who knows anything about what happened over the last 4 Years.

Nintendo have been pissed off that despite selling 100M consoles, the userbase for a GTA isnt there. The 25+ Million CoD market is tiny on Nintendo. Battlefield isnt there. Assassin's Creed wasnt there. Batman wasnt there. The critically acclaimed, multi-Million selling blockbuster games simply werent on the Wii. They were/are on PS360. Nintendo want that market, along with the WiiFit/Imagine: Babiez! markets.

So far, with WiiU, theyve thrown one little pebble. Bayonetta 2. Is it major? Not really, but its showing intentions. They have Assassin's Creed and Batman, along with CoD. Theyre still a long way behind though, as shown this Week. Dark Souls 2 being the prime example.

Answer this question - Why is it the Wii dropped off, far quicker than PS3 and 360 have?

And just to answer the OP... When the first big game releases.

exactly. +1 superchunk

Wii U will never be the market leader. I think well see sales fall off sharp leaving it last place for the holiday season. When PS4 and the xbox 8 release they will quickly catch the sales of the wii U. I don't know if you guys noticed but the Wii U isn't wanted. I've tried selling mine several times and cant get a bite. I'm even trying at a 50 dollar loss. Face it it's last gen, facing consoles with a much better library and online systems. This system isn't for the ps3/360 crowed, and wont do much to change that when the true nextgen systems come out. 30 million life times sales is my prediction for the wii U. Price cut around march.

They did make one, and then they renamed it Paper Mario just before launch.

I say that Wii U might sell most on the japanese launch week, but it will be close and it will not last long. If they won't get there then, then never.

Leader of the 7.5 gen confirmed.

Nope, not gonna happen. Last Year, with quite horrid support, the PS3 was sitting at or around 200k units consistantly into March. It didnt drop below 150k until mid-April.

Next Year, the lineup is SO MUCH stronger. Simply not gonna be down 100k YoY.

January has DmC, Sniper and Ni no Kuni. February has Dead Space, Crysis, Sly Cooper, Aliens and Metal Gear. March has God of War and Tomb Raider. GRID, Metro and South Park are also due to release. April onwards - GTA5, The Last of Us. Add in the smaller/Yearly titles, its a strong 3 Months. 360 also has Gears.

Line up is too strong for a Wii-like drop.

When the HD sucessors launch.

This was pointed out and thus I adjusted my prediction to late May/early June. I expect 20-30% down YoY, similar to most of this year. This would push sales close to 100k around these months, and certainly under in September/October.
